To meet nutrient needs each day, moderately active women

25 to 49 need about 1,900 calories, 51 g protein, 261 g carbohydra­te, 25 to 35 g fibre and not more than 63 g total fat (21 g saturated fat). Men and teenagers usually need more. Canadian sodium intake of approximat­ely 3,500 mg daily should be reduced, whereas the intake of potassium from food sources should be increased to 4,700 mg per day.

The percentage of recommende­d daily intake (% RDI) is based on the values used for Canadian food labels for calcium, iron, vitamins A and C, and folate.

Figures are rounded off. They are based on the first ingredient listed when there is a choice and do not include optional ingredient­s or those with no specified amounts.
