MEASURED NUTRIENT ROLES

Top nutrients that support the body

For 100 g, the strongest Daily Value contributions among nutrients available in this record are Selenium (48.2% DV), Vitamin K (40.2% DV) and Choline (38.2% DV). The cards explain the normal roles of those nutrients, not a treatment effect of the food.

Selenium: thyroid and antioxidant defense

48.2% adult DV in 100 g
Thyroid functionAntioxidant defense

This amount provides 26.5 µg. Selenium supports thyroid hormone metabolism, DNA synthesis and protection from oxidative damage. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Vitamin K: blood clotting and bone metabolism

40.2% adult DV in 100 g
Blood clottingBone metabolism

This amount provides 48.2 µg. Vitamin K is needed for normal blood clotting and proteins involved in bone metabolism. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Read the NIH/FDA nutrient reference

Choline: cell membranes and signaling

38.2% adult DV in 100 g
Cell membranesBrain and muscle signaling

This amount provides 210 mg. Choline supports cell membranes and production of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter involved in memory and muscle control. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Read the NIH/FDA nutrient reference

Vitamin B12: blood cells and nerves

32.9% adult DV in 100 g
Red blood cellsNervous system

This amount provides 0.79 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 reference

Riboflavin (B2): energy and cell growth

28.3% adult DV in 100 g
Energy metabolismCell growth

This amount provides 0.37 mg. Riboflavin helps convert food into energy and supports cell growth, development and function. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Read the NIH/FDA nutrient reference

Vitamin A: vision and immune function

21.9% adult DV in 100 g
VisionImmune function

This amount provides 197 µg. Vitamin A supports normal vision, immune function, growth and cell development. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

Food-specific benefits & evidence

High in Selenium

48.2% adult DV in 100 g

This amount provides 26.5 µg. Selenium supports thyroid hormone metabolism, DNA synthesis and protection from oxidative damage. This is a measured nutrient contribution, not proof that the food prevents or treats disease.
