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 — 26.2 g per 100 g (≥ 20% DV)
- High fibre — 9.3 g per 100 g (≥ 20% DV)
- Low saturated fat — 0 g per 100 g (≤ 1 g)
