What is Nutritional Profiling?
Nutritional profiling involves testing for a variety of things as detailed below:
- Energy
- Carbohydrates
- Protein
- Fat content
- Fat profile – Trans, saturated, unsaturated and omega fatty acids
- Sugars
- Sodium
- Total dietary fibre
- Moisture and Ash (used to calculate carbohydrate)
In additional there are a variety of other components that are important for some food products like:
- Vitamins
- Caffeine
- Alcohol
- Cholesterol
- Minerals
- Amino acids
Our team of scientists at Agrifood Technology are experts in their fields and will help you meet food standards and your quality requirements.
Why is it important?
Many people rely on these details, especially if they are closely watching what they eat or if they have strict dietary restrictions. For example, some people must really watch how much sodium or cholesterol they consume, so they pay close attention to all the nutrition labels on their foods. However, if your food’s nutrition facts are inaccurate, you could risk harming their health and losing their business.
Instead, you want to show your customers that you value their health and let them know they can trust you and your nutritional information. You can rely on Agrifood Technology to give your customers all the accurate information they need when they consume your products.
