The Nutrition Facts Table is as follows

The Nutrition Facts Table is a standardized table containing the names of the nutrients in a food, their contents, and their percentage of the Nutrient Reference Value (NRV). It is the content that must be displayed in the nutrition label, and it is also the premise and foundation of all kinds of claims. It can be said that the soul of nutrition labeling is the Nutrition Facts Table. Take the nutrition facts table of a certain nut as an example:

Since energy, protein, fat, carbohydrates and sodium are closely related to the major nutrition-related problems (nutritional deficiencies and over-nutrition) as well as chronic diseases (e.g., high blood pressure, high blood glucose, etc.) of China's residents, our standards require that these five items must be labeled in the table of nutritional facts, which is referred to as the mandatory labeling of the "1+4".

Extended Information

The first two columns of the Nutrition Facts table are easy to read. It is important to note that the second column is labeled in different units, generally per 100 grams (milliliters) or per serving, with the former being the more common way of labeling. The third column of the Nutrition Facts Table is the Nutrient Reference Value % (NRV%), which represents the percentage of nutrients in 100 grams or 100 milliliters or 1 serving of a food item to the Daily Requirement.

For consumers, NRV% is one of the most important items in the nutrition labeling, and just by looking at this percentage, they know how much energy and nutrients eating 100 grams or 100 milliliters or 1 serving of food can bring to their day.
