Quizplus · Accepted Answer

%DVs (percent daily values) will help Max choose foods that are the richest sources of vitamin C as they indicate the amount of a nutrient in a serving of food in relation to the daily recommended intake. By looking for foods with a high %DV for vitamin C, Max can choose foods that are good sources of this nutrient. Country of origin information and organic food logos do not provide information about nutrient content, while structure/function claims refer to the potential benefits of a nutrient, rather than its actual content in a food.
