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 (106% DV), Copper (91.6% DV) and Dietary fiber (89.3% DV). The cards explain the normal roles of those nutrients, not a treatment effect of the food.

Folate: DNA and cell division

106% adult DV in 100 g
DNA synthesisRed blood cells

This amount provides 423 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.

Read the NIH/FDA nutrient reference

Copper: iron metabolism and nerves

91.6% adult DV in 100 g
Iron metabolismNervous system

This amount provides 0.82 mg. Copper supports energy production, connective tissue, iron metabolism, and normal nervous and immune function. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Read the NIH/FDA nutrient reference

Dietary fiber: digestion and fullness

89.3% adult DV in 100 g
Digestive systemBowel regularity

This amount provides 25 g. Dietary fiber supports digestion, adds bulk to stool, and can help with fullness. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Read the NIH/FDA nutrient reference

Manganese: metabolism and antioxidant enzymes

70.9% adult DV in 100 g
MetabolismAntioxidant enzymes

This amount provides 1.63 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

Thiamin (B1): energy and cell function

46.3% adult DV in 100 g
Energy metabolismCell function

This amount provides 0.56 mg. Thiamin helps turn food into energy and supports normal cell growth and function. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Read the NIH/FDA nutrient reference

Magnesium: energy, muscles and nerves

45.7% adult DV in 100 g
Energy metabolismMuscle and nerve function

This amount provides 192 mg. Magnesium supports enzyme reactions, energy production, protein synthesis, and normal muscle and nerve 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

106% adult DV in 100 g

This amount provides 423 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.
