OpenNutrition is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides access to a comprehensive food database with over 300,000 food items, offering detailed nutritional data and barcode lookups.

Unlike other databases that rely on inconsistent user-generated content or are restricted by commercial licensing, OpenNutrition offers transparent, comprehensive, and accurate nutritional data. This data is freely accessible to developers and researchers, making it a valuable resource for those seeking reliable nutritional information. The server operates locally, ensuring privacy and fast response times by processing all data queries without external API calls.
