The regulations define those claims per reference serving rather than per 100 g, so treat these as a like-for-like comparison between foods, not as a statement about a product label:

  • High protein — 23.4 g per 100 g (≥ 20% DV)
  • Low fat — 2.5 g per 100 g (≤ 3 g)
  • Low saturated fat — 1 g per 100 g (≤ 1 g)
