FOOD ENERGIES AND NUTRIENTS COVERED

Balanced Diet analyses all food energies, vitamins and minerals that are possible to compare between the Composition of Foods (the UK Nutrient Databank) and the Dietary Reference Values (DRVs).

Considered:-

Trans-fatty acids
Intrinsic and milk sugars and non-milk extrinsic sugars

Although DRVs were set for these a comparison cannot be made because no figures are given by the UK Nutrient Databank. However with the information provided determination of where problem levels of intake could be coming from is possible.
