01 Nutrition density: why B

Protein is 3.1 g per 100 g, and almost all of it comes from the milk, which is 97.3% of the recipe. That earns a core credit, and there is no isolated fibre or fortification in the grade.

No vitamins or minerals are declared on the panel. The grade still gets a bonus for vitamin B12 and riboflavin, which milk naturally carries.

Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

Does Nestle a+ ActiPlus Dahi, Low-fat Cup Curd live up to its claims?

    Holds

    A named culture, Lactobacillus acidophilus SD 5221, is listed, and the pack labels it a probiotic food.

  • On the pack

    “100 crore CFU per day”

    Be careful

    Holds

    Be careful

    The retailer page shows 53 mg sodium per 100 g, the pack shows 50.4 mg. The difference is small and does not move the grade.
