Nutrition labels should make your diet + nutrition choices easier, but sometimes they do the exact opposite. And that’s the case when it comes to the Daily Value %.
Over the last few months, I’ve repeatedly seen the Daily Value % used or discussed in ways that just don’t make sense... As well as people who are afraid to take a particular supplement we might recommend to them because the Daily Value looks like an astronomical number.
And that’s troubling for me as a nutrition professional who firmly believes that the Daily Value % (%DV) is misleading and, frankly, TOTAL garbage. Since these values are so confusing to people in general as well as my community, I figured it was time to set the record straight.
My hope is that you’ll see how pointless this required section is on a US nutrition label + why you should never, ever bother using it as a guide for diet + nutrition choices.
