The term "Daily Value" refers to a nutritional concept that is used on food and dietary supplement labels in the United States. It represents the percentage of an adult's daily recommended intake for various nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. The Daily Value is based on the average needs of a healthy adult and provides a standardized way to compare food products in terms of their nutritional content. It helps consumers make informed choices about what they eat by providing information about the amount of specific nutrients per serving, relative to an individual's daily requirements.
