Values describe this food and preparation. An unreported nutrient is not a measured zero. The source record is available in References.

How the percentages are calculated

Percentages compare 100 g of this food with EFSA adult daily references. Ranges reflect different adult reference groups, not measurement uncertainty. A dash means there is no compatible comparison; it does not mean zero. These are not personal targets.

  • Calcium: 950 mg/day (population reference intake). Healthy European adults aged 25 years and over.
  • Iron: 11–16 mg/day (population reference intake). Healthy European adults; men and postmenopausal women / premenopausal women.
  • Magnesium: 300–350 mg/day (adequate intake). Healthy European adults; women / men.
  • Phosphorus: 550 mg/day (adequate intake). Healthy European adults.
  • Potassium: 3500 mg/day (adequate intake). Healthy European adults.
  • Sodium: 2 g/day (safe and adequate intake). Healthy European adults, including pregnant and lactating women.
  • Zinc: 6.2–16.3 mg/day (population reference intake). Healthy European adults; range across sex and phytate-intake categories.
  • Copper: 1.3–1.6 mg/day (adequate intake). Healthy European adults; women / men.
  • Manganese: 3 mg/day (adequate intake). Healthy European adults.
  • Selenium: 70 µg/day (adequate intake). Healthy European adults.
  • Vitamin E: 11–13 mg/day (adequate intake). Healthy European adults; women / men; alpha-tocopherol.
  • Vitamin B1 (thiamin): 0.1 mg/MJ (population reference intake). Healthy European adults. USDA food values are mass per 100 g, so an energy-based PRI cannot be divided into them without an energy intake denominator.
  • Vitamin B2 (riboflavin): 1.6 mg/day (population reference intake). Healthy European adults.
  • Vitamin B3 (niacin): 1.6 mg NE/MJ (population reference intake). Healthy European adults. USDA reports niacin mass per 100 g; an energy-based niacin-equivalent PRI is not the same definition.
  • Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid): 5 mg/day (adequate intake). Healthy European adults.
  • Vitamin B6: 1.6–1.7 mg/day (population reference intake). Healthy European adults; women / men.
  • Vitamin B12 (cobalamin): 4 µg/day (adequate intake). Healthy European adults aged 18 years and over.

About these measurements

USDA FoodData Central entry 331960, Foundation, release usda-foundation-2026-04. Amounts are reported per 100 g for the named food and preparation. A value of zero means the source reported zero; an unlisted nutrient may simply not have been measured.
