GDA information will be shown in the nutrition panel on the back of pack. There are two ways that you could try using this information:
•
Try keeping a track of the GDA contribution of the main foods that you eat and see how you are doing (for each GDA your total should add up to around 100%). www.whatsinsideguide.com(opens a new window)
