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.
