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 (52.4% DV), Niacin (B3) (34.9% DV) and Thiamin (B1) (34.3% DV). The cards explain the normal roles of those nutrients, not a treatment effect of the food.

Selenium: thyroid and antioxidant defense

52.4% adult DV in 100 g
Thyroid functionAntioxidant defense

This amount provides 28.8 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.

Niacin (B3): energy and cell function

34.9% adult DV in 100 g
Energy metabolismCell function

This amount provides 5.59 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.

Read the NIH/FDA nutrient reference

Thiamin (B1): energy and cell function

34.3% adult DV in 100 g
Energy metabolismCell function

This amount provides 0.41 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

Folate: DNA and cell division

24.8% adult DV in 100 g
DNA synthesisRed blood cells

This amount provides 99 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

20% adult DV in 100 g
Oxygen transportGrowth and brain development

This amount provides 3.6 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

Riboflavin (B2): energy and cell growth

19.4% adult DV in 100 g
Energy metabolismCell growth

This amount provides 0.25 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.
