% DV refers to how much a single serving of an individually packaged food or supplement contributes nutritionally to your daily diet, based on a 2,000-calorie-a-day diet. Generally, having 5% DV or less of a nutrient per serving is considered low, and 20% DV or more of a nutrient per serving is considered high.
Fat Composition
The suggested total fat consumption should be limited to 30% of total energy intake or less. The type of fat consumed should primarily be unsaturated fatty acids, with no more than 10% of total energy intake coming from saturated fatty acids (about 200 calories on a 2000-calorie diet) and no more than 1% of total energy intake coming from trans-fatty acids.

There are 13 essential vitamins required for the body to work properly, which are categorised into two categories: fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins. Vitamins have a Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA), provided by the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs), which vary by age and sex. The %DV indicates how much one serving contributes to the average recommended daily intake.

FAQ
They are nutrient-dense (948.07 mcg vitamin A, 28.49 mg vitamin C, and 1,308.86 mg potassium) while average in calories, keeping you full while providing a relatively healthy mix of vitamins and minerals.
It depends. Per serving boiled carrots and potatoes contain 1,308.86 mg potassium and 685.95 mg sodium, which can be high for some people with CKD, and kidney nutrition guidance notes that people with kidney disease may need to monitor potassium intake based on their lab results and stage of kidney disease.
They can fit a weight loss or balanced diet, but portion size may matter because the carbs add up quickly. Per serving: 205.75 kcal, 47.33 g carbs, and 6.81 g fiber, so it may be filling for some people, especially compared with lower fiber sides
Yes, both negatively and positively. The potassium is high (1,308.86 mg per serving), which may support blood pressure control in some people, but the sodium is also high (685.95 mg per serving), which may work against that benefit.
They can raise blood sugar, because they are a carbohydrate rich food. Per serving boiled carrots and potatoes contain 47.33 g total carbs, 40.53 g net carbs, 8.02 g sugars, and 6.81 g fiber, so the fiber may slow the rise somewhat, but the carb amount is still substantial. Diabetes meal planning guidance also notes that carbs raise blood sugar, while eating carbs with protein, fat, or fiber can slow how quickly blood sugar rises.
