What do % Daily Values mean?!


Question:

What do % Daily Values mean?

on the nutrition facts label, it says 20% Daily Value. what does that mean? does it mean we need to eat 80% more of that nutrient to obtain a total of 100% in one day?


Answers:

Yes, however you must remember that the number they give for the % is based on a 2000 calorie diet. Some people will need more or less depending on the ammount of calories they consume.
