Codex nutrient reference values: especially for vitamins, minerals and protein
This publication explains how Codex and the Committee for Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses worked over several years to develop Codex nutrient reference values for protein, 13 vitamins and 6 minerals in the Codex guidelines for nutrition labelling. Nutrient Reference Values (NRVs) are a set of values used in nutrition labelling derived from authoritative recommendations for daily nutrient intake. This publication documents the process and decisions involved in reviewing the Codex NRVs for protein, vitamins and minerals and as such, provides a valuable record of many years of novel and complex technical work.
