What exactly does a 2000 calorie diet require?

Anonymous asked:


All nutritional labels are based on a 2000 calorie diet, and then they just tell you the percentages of this diet. I need to know exactly what the values are for example:
2.6g of calcium
5.0g of fat
etc. etc.

Does anyone know of a website or can give me these values?

Thank you very much

p.s.
I am not dieting this is for a school project

    THis site has all the info on the Food Pyramid. It will also tell you how to read a food label, which are all geared toward a 2000 calorie diet. You’ll notice on the food label, for example, that it will say protein – 18% Daily Value. THe amount given is 18% of the daily value for 2000 calories. If you can’t find the info – simply do the math from a food label!
