Answer to Question 1

The Daily Values provide a benchmark to consumers as to
whether a food is a good source of a given nutrient. There
are two types of DVs. The first set is used for select vitamins
and minerals. These values represent the recommended
daily intake levels of these nutrients for person who requires
2,000 calories. The second type of DV represents a nutrient's
upper limit. Thus, the DVs for vitamins A and C, calcium and
iron, and dietary fiber are values that you'd like to have over
20 percent, whereas percentages for total fat, saturated fat,
cholesterol, and sodium are values that you'd like to have
under 5 percent.

Answer to Question 2
