Document Summary
Anything with a 5% daily level is a little and 15% or more is considered a lot. You would want to consume something that is low in saturated fat and high in essential nutriebt. The daily value is standard nutrient amount used to indicate how much of the nutrient is in the food of choice. Sodium is the ui and potassium is the ai. The daily value would be 18 in the slide (iron) 300/1300 = 22%, so 22% is the daily value if the serving size differed from the quantity of the drink then you got to match serving sizes. All the ones that need to be limited are at the top of the table in the new nutrition facts table. Bottom half of the table has nutrients you want more of. Vitamin a and c are removed since they are not a major public health concern.
