Proximates
- Protein ProteinBuilds and repairs tissue, drives enzymes and hormones. Made up of amino acids, nine of which the body can't make itself.UK adult RI: 50 g/day15.8g15.8g32%
- Fat FatAll fats combined: saturated, monounsaturated, polyunsaturated, and trans. Carries fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) and contributes 9 kcal per gram.UK adult RI: 70 g/day14.9g14.9g21%
- Carbohydrate CarbohydrateAll carbohydrate combined: sugars, starches, and fiber. Calculated by subtracting water + protein + fat + ash from the food's total mass, hence "by difference".UK adult RI: 260 g/day52.3g52.3g20%
- Fiber FiberPlant carbohydrate the body can't digest. Feeds gut bacteria, slows sugar absorption, and supports regular digestion. UK adults: target 30 g/day.UK adult RI: 30 g/day39.8g39.8g133%

- Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) Vitamin B2 (riboflavin)Water-soluble B-vitamin for energy production, cell growth, and skin health. Dairy, eggs, and lean meat are densest.UK adult RI: 1.4 mg/day0.35mg0.35mg25%
- Vitamin B3 (niacin) Vitamin B3 (niacin)Water-soluble B-vitamin for energy metabolism. The body can also make some niacin from the amino acid tryptophan.UK adult RI: 16 mg/day6.05mg6.05mg38%
- Vitamin B12 Vitamin B12Water-soluble B-vitamin essential for red blood cell formation and the nervous system. Only found naturally in animal foods, vegans need fortified foods or supplements.UK adult RI: 2.5 µg/day0µg0µg0%
- Vitamin A Vitamin AFat-soluble vitamin for vision, immune function, and skin. Measured in retinol activity equivalents (RAE) so plant and animal sources are comparable.UK adult RI: 800 µg/day14.0µg14.0µg2%
- Vitamin D Vitamin DFat-soluble vitamin essential for calcium absorption and bone health. The skin also synthesises it from sunlight, so dietary intake matters most over winter.UK adult RI: 5 µg/day0µg0µg0%
