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/day2.85g2.85g6%
- 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/day0.62g0.62g1%
- 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/day2.41g2.41g1%
- 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/day1.56g1.56g5%
Vitamins
- Vitamin C Vitamin CWater-soluble antioxidant + cofactor in collagen synthesis. Lost easily in cooking water and air exposure.UK adult RI: 80 mg/day26.5mg26.5mg33%
- Vitamin B1 (thiamin) Vitamin B1 (thiamin)Water-soluble B-vitamin for carbohydrate metabolism and nerve function. Whole grains, pork, and legumes are good sources.UK adult RI: 1.1 mg/day0.08mg0.08mg7%
- 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/day0.19mg0.19mg14%
- 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/day0.55mg0.55mg3%
- Vitamin B6 Vitamin B6Water-soluble B-vitamin for amino acid metabolism and neurotransmitter synthesis.UK adult RI: 1.4 mg/day0.19mg0.19mg14%
- Folate FolateWater-soluble B-vitamin essential for DNA synthesis and cell division. Critical pre-conception and in early pregnancy to prevent neural tube defects.UK adult RI: 200 µg/day117µg117µg58%
- 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/day283µg283µg35%
Minerals
- Calcium CalciumMajor mineral for bone density, muscle contraction, and nerve signalling.UK adult RI: 800 mg/day68.3mg68.3mg9%
- Iron IronCarries oxygen in haemoglobin. Plant (non-heme) iron absorbs less efficiently than meat (heme) iron, pair with vitamin C to boost absorption.UK adult RI: 14 mg/day1.26mg1.26mg9%
- Magnesium MagnesiumCofactor in 300+ enzyme reactions, energy metabolism, muscle relaxation, blood pressure regulation.UK adult RI: 375 mg/day92.9mg92.9mg25%
- Phosphorus PhosphorusMajor mineral for bones, energy storage (ATP), and cell membranes. Widespread in protein-rich foods.UK adult RI: 700 mg/day39.0mg39.0mg6%
- Potassium PotassiumElectrolyte mineral that counters sodium's effect on blood pressure. Concentrated in fruit, vegetables, beans, and dairy.UK adult RI: 2,000 mg/day582mg582mg29%
- Sodium SodiumMineral mostly consumed as salt (sodium chloride). Excess raises blood pressure in salt-sensitive people.UK adult RI: 2,400 mg/day111mg111mg5%
- Zinc ZincTrace mineral for immune function, wound healing, and sense of taste. Best absorbed from animal foods; phytates in grains reduce uptake.UK adult RI: 10 mg/day0.45mg0.45mg4%
