What is DV or %DV? DV, or Daily Value, represents the daily intake level of a nutrient that is considered to be the amount required for a healthy individual. With respect to food labeling, %DV, or % Daily Value, allows individuals to determine how much of their DV is present within a serving size, so they can make quick and informed food choices that contribute to a healthy diet.

Other example terms used to describe intake are RDA (Recommended Daily Amount), DRI (Dietary Reference Intake), and GDA (Guideline Daily Amounts).

The CompuTec ProcessForce ingredient and nutrient declaration solution provides the necessary features and functions to define the daily intake values of key nutrients and use this data to calculate and determine the %DV of ingredients within a product.

Traditionally, such information is managed offline and within non-integrated applications, but with CompuTec ProcessForce it is managed within a single application, increasing data accuracy and streamlining associated business processes.
