About
How to Read Nutrition Labels is a plain-language guide to the U.S. Nutrition Facts label. It covers serving size, calories, % Daily Value, and the nutrients the panel is built to highlight.
The labels in the worked example and the cereal comparison are drawings. They are labeled as illustrative examples, not products on sale.
