Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The declaration on a food package of the nutrient content is called food labeling. Food labeling provides information about the nutrition value, ingredients, serving size, and serving per container of the food item. The nutrient content is provided through percent daily value (%DV) for various nutrients like fat, sodium, fiber, vitamins, and minerals, among others. Health claims and nutrient claims are nutritional claims, which describe the health benefits of a food item, such as low fat, low calories, high fiber. However, these claims are not the declaration of nutrient content.
