NOTES: Loss-Adjusted Food Availability data serve as a proxy for food consumption. Data on added fats and oils and rice were unavailable
after 2010. Added fats and oils and added sugars are added to foods during processing or preparation. They do not include naturally
occurring fats and sugars in food (e.g., fats in meat or sugars in fruits).
