What is a nutrition label?
According to the provisions of the "General Rules for Nutrition Labeling of Pre-packaged Food" GB28050-2011, the nutrition label is a description
of the nutrition information and characteristics of the food provided to consumers on the label of pre-packaged food, including three parts:
the nutrition facts table, nutrition claim and nutrition facts function claim, which is a part of the pre-packaged food label.
The contents of the nutrition label
Food nutrition labels mainly include the "nutrition facts table" in the form of a table, and on this basis to explain the level of nutrients and health
effects of the "nutrition claims", "nutrition claims". The nutrition facts list is the core of the nutrition label.
Pre-packaged food labels are like the "ID card" of food, which contains a lot of nutritional information, and we should learn to read it when buying food.
How to read the nutrition facts list
To give you a "chestnut" :
In the picture of the nutrition facts table, the percentage of nutrient reference value of protein contained in every 100 grams of yogurt is 5%,
which means that drinking 100 grams of this yogurt meets 5% of our protein intake today.
If the whole bottle contains 300 grams, when we drink it, we will have completed 15% of our protein intake for today. This is far from enough,
suggesting that we also need to get protein from other foods.

Whole wheat flour > Rich powder > Snow powder > Wheat core powder

but also suitable for special people such as obesity, constipation and diabetes.
