The FDA has not set forth guidelines for claims of “excellent source” or “good source” for whole grains as they did for vitamins and minerals. In order to inform consumers, the Whole Grains Council created stamps that food companies can display on packaging, which indicate the amount of whole grains in a serving of the product.For more information, visit www.wholegrainscouncil.org.
According to USDA Dietary Guidelines, the amount of grains you need to eat depends on your age, sex, and level of physical activity. In general, 1 slice of bread can be considered a serving. At least half your daily grain intake should come from whole grains. For more, visit www.choosemyplate.gov.
The FDA requires that values on Nutrition Facts Labels be rounded. For example, if one slice has 2.70g fiber, it rounds to 3g. Two slices (5.4g) round to 5g. This rounding standard is used for all food labels.
