Calories are the amount of energy in food.

52
5% DV or less is a little and 15% DV or more is a lot. This applies to all nutrients.
53
If a food has less than 0.2 grams of trans fat per serving AND is low in saturated fat, the food manufacturer can promote the product as free of trans fat.
54
You may be able to compare products that don’t have similar amounts of food. For example, you could compare the % DVs of a bagel (90 g) to the % DVs of 2 slices of bread (70 g) because you would most likely eat either amount of food at one meal.
55
Trans fat is a fat found in food. This is formed by a chemical process called partial dehydration, it is when a liquid oil is turned into a solid fat. Trans Fat is also known to lower HDL (high Density Lipoprotein) which is the healthy cholesterol in our body- which can contribute to factors of heart disease. Although trans fats have been reduced in most foods, it is still in a lot of food s we eat, which is why we find it on the nutrition facts table on foods. Saturated and trans fats are both known to raise LDL (Low density lipoprotien ) which is the bad cholesterol we find in food. High cholesterol is a risk factor of heart disease.
56
The amount of calories you need each day depends on your age, gender, body size, activity level and if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
