For 100 g, the strongest Daily Value contributions among nutrients available in this record are Folate (35.5% DV), Copper (30.1% DV) and Magnesium (22.9% DV). The cards explain the normal roles of those nutrients, not a treatment effect of the food.
35.5% adult DV in 100 g
Copper: iron metabolism and nerves
This amount provides 0.27 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.
Read the NIH/FDA nutrient referenceMagnesium: energy, muscles and nerves
This amount provides 96 mg. Magnesium supports enzyme reactions, energy production, protein synthesis, and normal muscle and nerve function. This describes the nutrient's normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.
Read the NIH/FDA nutrient referenceManganese: metabolism and antioxidant enzymes
This amount provides 0.47 mg. Manganese supports metabolism, bone formation and antioxidant enzyme systems. This describes the nutrient's normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.
Read the NIH/FDA nutrient referenceZinc: immune function and repair
This amount provides 1.87 mg. Zinc supports immune function, DNA and protein synthesis, wound healing, growth and the sense of taste. This describes the nutrient's normal role, not disease prevention or treatment.
Read the NIH/FDA nutrient referenceIron: oxygen transport
This amount provides 3.05 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.
