The FDA standard for what producers can say about what’s in food. 10% of the daily value (DV) is considered the minimum “significant amount” of a nutrient.
Contains at least 20% of the daily value of these nutrients.
Contains at least 10% of the daily value of these nutrients.
Meets FDA requirements to label as low, free of, none, or similar. Thresholds differ by nutrient.
Zinc assists proteins in crucial roles such as wound healing, immune function, and DNA synthesis.
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) assists in DNA synthesis, red blood cell production, and insulation around neurons.
Vitamin B3 (Niacin) assists cells in converting food into energy and DNA repair. This measures the sum of total niacin plus tryptophan equivalents.
Phosphorus is required for DNA synthesis, cell metabolism, and in supporting strong bone formation.
Iron is crucial for carrying oxygen in red blood cells around the body and assists in converting food into energy.
Copper assists in converting food into energy, managing iron levels in the body, and protecting cells from damage due to oxidative stress.
Selenium assists proteins in crucial roles such as protecting cells from damage due to oxidative stress, DNA synthesis and supporting thyroid function.
Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) assists in converting food into energy and helps cells build and break down fat.
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) helps convert food into energy and protects cells from damage due to oxidative stress.

This breakdown shows how the tested lab results would make up a single serving. When the tested percentage is near 100%, you can be confident that the analysis reflects a typical serving of this food.
Analyzed from 10 samples
Essential amino acids are the building blocks that are needed to create proteins, which are crucial for the structure and function of cells. Because humans can’t make them, we need to obtain them from our diets.
Non-essential amino acids contribute to the building blocks needed to create proteins, which are crucial for the structure and function of cells. Humans can make these amino acids from carbohydrates and fat, therefore it's not required to obtain them from the diet.
The fat-to-protein ratio tells you how much fat there is compared to protein in a food. It’s calculated by dividing the grams of fat by the grams of protein, to show balance between the two nutrients. A low number suggests a lean profile: more protein and less fat. Conversely, a high number indicates the food is more "fatty," meaning it has more fat and less protein.
Fat provides energy and contributes to cell building. Fat is made up of fatty acids that can be grouped into saturated fatty acids (SFA), trans fatty acids (TFA), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) & monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA).
Cholesterol is a building block to make cells, produce certain hormones, and help the body absorb fat from the diet. Humans can make cholesterol so it is not necessary to eat.
Saturated fatty acids are a group of fats that provide energy, contribute to cell building, and can raise harmful blood cholesterol levels.
Monounsaturated fatty acids are a group of fats that provide energy, contribute to cell building, and assist the body’s absorption of certain vitamins.
This value represents an estimate. Because some samples had values below LOQ, we set their value to half LOQ when we know the LOQ to calculate the average.
Limit of Quantification (LOQ) is the lowest level that can be reliably measured by a lab. The true value could be anywhere between zero and LOQ.
Polyunsaturated fatty acids are a group of fats that provide energy, contribute to cell building, and can lower harmful blood cholesterol levels.
Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) is an omega-3 fatty acid that provides energy and contributes to cell building. It can be converted to other omega-3 fatty acids that lower inflammation and support cognitive health.
Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) is an omega-3 fatty acid that supports cardiovascular and cognitive health and lowers inflammation.
Limit of Quantification (LOQ) is the lowest level that can be reliably measured by a lab. The true value could be anywhere between zero and LOQ.
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an omega-3 fat that is especially important for building cells in the brain.
Limit of Quantification (LOQ) is the lowest level that can be reliably measured by a lab. The true value could be anywhere between zero and LOQ.

Trans-fatty acids (TFAs) are a type of fat that most experts consider harmful for health. However, the source of TFAs may influence their health impact.

The PUFA:SFA ratio compares the amount of polyunsaturated fat (PUFA) to saturated fat (SFA) in a food. It’s calculated by dividing the grams of polyunsaturated fat by the grams of saturated fat, to show how the types of fat are balanced——a higher ratio is often considered a healthier choice.
Omega-3s are a subgroup of PUFAs that promote cognitive health and lower inflammation.
Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) is an omega-3 fatty acid that provides energy and contributes to cell building. It can be converted to other omega-3 fatty acids that lower inflammation and support cognitive health.

Omega-6s are a subgroup of PUFAs that increase the body’s beneficial inflammatory response when fighting infection or healing from injury.
