MEASURED NUTRIENT ROLES

Top nutrients that support the body

For 100 g, the strongest Daily Value contributions among nutrients available in this record are Folate (300% DV), Vitamin B12 (282% DV) and Iron (161% DV). The cards explain the normal roles of those nutrients, not a treatment effect of the food.

Folate: DNA and cell division

300% adult DV in 100 g
DNA synthesisRed blood cells

This amount provides 1,200 µg. Folate is needed to make DNA and RNA and for normal cell division. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Vitamin B12: blood cells and nerves

282% adult DV in 100 g
Red blood cellsNervous system

This amount provides 6.77 µg. Vitamin B12 supports healthy blood cells, DNA synthesis and normal nervous-system function. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Iron: oxygen transport

161% adult DV in 100 g
Oxygen transportGrowth and brain development

This amount provides 28.9 mg. Iron is needed for hemoglobin and myoglobin, which carry oxygen, and supports growth and neurological development. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Read the NIH/FDA nutrient reference

Manganese: metabolism and antioxidant enzymes

155% adult DV in 100 g
MetabolismAntioxidant enzymes

This amount provides 3.56 mg. Manganese supports metabolism, bone formation and antioxidant enzyme systems. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Read the NIH/FDA nutrient reference

Zinc: immune function and repair

122% adult DV in 100 g
Immune functionGrowth and repair

This amount provides 13.4 mg. Zinc supports immune function, DNA and protein synthesis, wound healing, growth and the sense of taste. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Read the NIH/FDA nutrient reference

Niacin (B3): energy and cell function

112% adult DV in 100 g
Energy metabolismCell function

This amount provides 17.9 mg. Niacin helps enzymes convert food into energy and supports normal cell function. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

MEASURED CONTRIBUTIONS AND REVIEWED RECORDS

Food-specific benefits & evidence

High in Folate

300% adult DV in 100 g

This amount provides 1,200 µg. Folate is needed to make DNA and RNA and for normal cell division. This is a measured nutrient contribution, not proof that the food prevents or treats disease.
