MEASURED NUTRIENT ROLES
Top nutrients that support the body
For 100 g, the strongest Daily Value contributions among nutrients available in this record are Vitamin B12 (27.6% DV), Phosphorus (12.3% DV) and Calcium (6.8% DV). The cards explain the normal roles of those nutrients, not a treatment effect of the food.
Vitamin B12: blood cells and nerves
This amount provides 0.66 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.
Read the NIH/FDA nutrient referencePhosphorus: bones and cellular energy
This amount provides 154 mg. Phosphorus helps form bones and teeth and is involved in energy production and cell membranes. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.
Read the NIH/FDA nutrient referenceCalcium: bones, muscles and nerves
This amount provides 88.3 mg. Calcium helps form bones and teeth and supports normal muscle, nerve and blood-vessel function. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.
Read the NIH/FDA nutrient referenceThiamin (B1): energy and cell function
This amount provides 0.05 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 referenceZinc: immune function and repair
This amount provides 0.45 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 referenceVitamin B6: metabolism and brain development
This amount provides 0.05 mg. Vitamin B6 supports many enzyme reactions involved in metabolism, brain development and immune function. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Food-specific benefits & evidence
High in Vitamin B12
This amount provides 0.66 µg. Vitamin B12 supports healthy blood cells, DNA synthesis and normal nervous-system function. This is a measured nutrient contribution, not proof that the food prevents or treats disease.
