MEASURED NUTRIENT ROLES

Top nutrients that support the body

For 100 g, the strongest Daily Value contributions among nutrients available in this record are Copper (24.2% DV), Dietary fiber (23.2% DV) and Folate (18.3% DV). The cards explain the normal roles of those nutrients, not a treatment effect of the food.

Copper: iron metabolism and nerves

24.2% adult DV in 100 g
Iron metabolismNervous system

This amount provides 0.22 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.

Dietary fiber: digestion and fullness

23.2% adult DV in 100 g
Digestive systemBowel regularity

This amount provides 6.5 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.

Folate: DNA and cell division

18.3% adult DV in 100 g
DNA synthesisRed blood cells

This amount provides 73 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

Iron: oxygen transport

12.4% adult DV in 100 g
Oxygen transportGrowth and brain development

This amount provides 2.23 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

Thiamin (B1): energy and cell function

11.8% adult DV in 100 g
Energy metabolismCell function

This amount provides 0.14 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

Potassium: fluid balance and muscles

10% adult DV in 100 g
Fluid balanceMuscle and nerve function

This amount provides 472 mg. Potassium supports normal cell function, fluid balance, nerve transmission and muscle contraction. This describes the nutrient’s normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.

MEASURED CONTRIBUTIONS AND REVIEWED RECORDS

Food-specific benefits & evidence

High in Copper

24.2% adult DV in 100 g

This amount provides 0.22 mg. Copper supports energy production, connective tissue, iron metabolism, and normal nervous and immune function. This is a measured nutrient contribution, not proof that the food prevents or treats disease.
