How to Read Labels: Comparing EU with US Nutrition Labels
Sometimes we would come across products with EU and US Nutrition Labels on the shelves. So how can we compare these Nutrition Labels since they contain quite different values and the way it is compared is quite different (per 100g for the EU label and % daily values for the US label).
We have come up with a label converter to convert the US labels to per 100g.
How to use this converter:
Fill in the name of the product, serving size, number of servings, and calories (this is a must)
Fill in all the nutrients that you would like to compare with. For example, when you want to compare the amount of protein only, you would fill in the protein portion of the converter and press submit. Please note that you can use the label converter to convert salt to sodium. Some manufacturers use salt instead of sodium to hide the fact that it contains high amounts of sodium.
