* The % Daily Value (DV) tells you how much a nutrient in a serving of food contributes to a daily diet. 2,000 calories a day is used for general nutrition advice.

How does the Nutrition Label Maker work?

Type the amount of each nutrient in one serving. The panel rounds each value to the step FDA sets in 21 CFR 101.9(c). It computes the % Daily Value from FDA's Daily Values for adults and children 4 years and older, on a 2,000 calorie diet.

Trans fat and total sugars show no % Daily Value because FDA has not set one. Protein has a Daily Value of 50 g. The label only needs a protein percent for foods for young children or when the package makes a protein claim, so this label leaves it off.

This tool puts your numbers into the FDA layout. It does not check your nutrient values, and it does not make your label legal on its own.

What does a worked example look like?

A food with 247 calories, 8 g total fat, 3 mg cholesterol, 143 mg sodium, 37.2 g total carbohydrate, and 10 g added sugars per serving rounds to 250 calories, 8 g total fat (10% DV), cholesterol "less than 5" mg (1% DV), 140 mg sodium (6% DV), 37 g total carbohydrate (14% DV), and 10 g added sugars (20% DV).

Frequently asked questions

What changed on the 2020 Nutrition Facts label?

Added Sugars became a required line under Total Sugars. Vitamin D and potassium became required lines. Vitamins A and C became optional.

Why does a rounded value look different from what I typed?

FDA sets a rounding step for each nutrient in 21 CFR 101.9(c). Fat rounds to the nearest gram. Calories above 50 round to the nearest 10. The panel shows the rounded value.

Does this tool make my product label compliant?

No. This tool puts the numbers you enter into the FDA layout. It does not check your nutrient values or your serving size. Have a qualified reviewer check the label before you sell the product.

Where do the % Daily Value numbers come from?

They are FDA's Daily Values for adults and children 4 years and older, based on a 2,000 calorie diet, from 21 CFR 101.9(c)(8)(iv) and (9).
