A food label shows Vitamin D with 15% next to it. What does 15% represent?
This means that fifteen percent (15%) of the daily required Vitamin D by the body is fulfilled per serving. This percentage is based from certain nutrient references or calorie values.
The Recommended Energy and Nutrient Intakes (RENI) and Philippine Dietary Reference Intakes (PDRI) are the examples of nutrient references while 2,000 is a common basis as calorie value.
The basis of percentage is usually written at the bottom portion of the nutritional facts or label.
