What to Consider When Selecting Packaged Foods

Here are a few general points to consider when selecting processed foods:

  • Review the daily value (% DV) on the Nutrition Facts label to determine if it is low or high per serving
  • Select foods higher in dietary fiber
  • Select foods lower in saturated fat, sodium, and added sugars
  • A 20% DV or greater is considered high
  • A 5% DV or less is considered low
  • Individual needs vary and your % DV may be higher or lower. Nutrition Facts listed on packaged goods are based on an adult daily diet of 2,000 calories
