Nutrition Label Calculator

% Daily Value (%DV) shows how much a nutrient in one serving contributes to your total daily diet. It is based on a 2,000 calorie diet. 5% DV or less is considered low; 20% DV or more is considered high.

Updated 2020 FDA Daily Values (for 2,000 cal diet): Total Fat 78g, Saturated Fat 20g, Cholesterol 300mg, Sodium 2,300mg, Total Carbs 275g, Dietary Fiber 28g, Added Sugars 50g, Protein 50g.

Start with serving size and servings per container. Check calories. Use %DV: aim for low %DV of saturated fat, sodium, and added sugars. Aim for high %DV of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Compare products using %DV.

Total sugars include both naturally occurring sugars (in fruit, milk) and added sugars. Added sugars are those added during processing (sucrose, high-fructose corn syrup, honey). The FDA recommends limiting added sugars to less than 10% of daily calories (50g for 2,000 cal diet).
