    Nutritionix Querying Language (NXQL)

NXQL allows developers to write more advanced queries against our data pool.  Examples of what you can do with an advanced query:

Filter items by their type (show ONLY USDA items or ONLY CPG items)
Filter nutrient ranges (>100 calories AND <500 calories)

All requests are POST and require a valid JSON object be sent to https://api.nutritionix.com/v1_1/search
You can paste any of the below JSON examples into this curl request and they will retrieve results assuming you have added your appKey, and appId.
