Guideline daily amounts

Guideline Daily Amounts (GDAs) are a guide to how much energy and certain key nutrients are required for a healthy diet. These include calories, sugars, fat, saturated fat and salt. GDAs are guidelines for an average person with a healthy weight and an average level of activity.

GDA information can be found on every Kingsmill loaf and pack of rolls.
For example, this information shows how much each slice of bread contributes...

Calories Sugars Fats Saturates Salt
93 1.5 0.8g 0.1g 0.5g
5% 2% 1% > 1% 8%
