A quick guide to nutrition labelling
Nutrition information on Sainsbury's products
The nutrition panel on the back of packs shows the amount of different nutrients that food or drink provides per 100g – where space permits, we also give the information per serving.
We use the multiple traffic-light colour labelling for the nutrition panel. You’ll also find Guideline Daily Amounts (GDAs) on all Sainsbury’s own-label products and many branded products. These are a guide to the daily amount of nutrients the average adult or child (5–10 years) should have in their diet.
They show you what percentage of your GDA is in a portion of a product, helping you see the nutritional contribution it makes to your overall diet.
