Post by: biogenik on Mar 4, 2018 The consumer can have some confidence that the health claims are based on scientific evidence that what the manufacturers are stating is true, and that the nutrient content claims are reflective of how much of a given nutrient is contained in the item. This may help consumers decide whether or not they should include the food item in their particular diets. A The Daily Values provide a benchmark to consumers as to whether a food is a good source of a given nutrient. There are two types of DVs. The first set is used for select vitamins and minerals. These values represent the recommended daily intake levels of these nutrients for person who requires 2,000 calories. The second type of DV represents a nutrient's upper limit. Thus, the DVs for vitamins A and C, calcium and iron, and dietary fiber are values that you'd like to have over 20 percent, whereas percentages for total fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, and sodium are values that you'd like to have under 5 percent. A Anthropometric: Objective measures of the body's physical dimensions (height, weight, body composition, head circumference, and waist circumference). Biochemical measurements: Laboratory values of biological samples such as blood or urine (e.g., serum vitamin D levels). Clinical assessment: An assessment of the signs and symptoms that a given person displays (the patient answers many questions, including questions about history of their symptoms, and describes how they are feeling). Dietary assessment: An evaluation of the adequacy of someone's dietary intake (dietary recall, food frequency questionnaire, diet record).
