Nutrition tables L

A nutritional table (or nutrition facts label) is a standardized chart used to display the nutritional content of a food or beverage product. Typically found on packaging, it provides important information on the quantities of key nutrients per serving, such as calories, fats, proteins, carbohydrates, and sugars, as well as essential vitamins and minerals like vitamin D, calcium, and iron. The table often includes both the amount per serving and the % daily value (%DV), which helps consumers understand how a serving contributes to their daily nutrient needs. Nutritional tables are required by regulatory bodies in many countries to promote transparency and assist individuals in making informed dietary choices.
