• • Ingredients on a food label are listed in order of lowest to highest amounts.  All sugar-based ingredients on a food label are group individually.  Percent daily value (DV) on a food label is the same as the Dietary Reference Intake (DRI).  A 5% DV for a nutrient (or less) indicates that there are low levels of that nutrient while a 15% DV for nutrient (or more) indicates a high amount of nutrient in that food.

• • Ingredients on a food label are listed in order of highest to lowest amounts.  All sugar-based ingredients on a food label are group together.  Percent daily value (DV) on a food label is the percent of the requirement that you will meet for a nutrient if you are ingesting 2000 kcal/day.  A 5% DV for a nutrient (or less) indicates that there are low levels of that nutrient while a 15% DV for nutrient (or more) indicates a high amount of nutrient in that food.
