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 — 14.5 g per 100 g (≥ 20% DV)
• High fibre — 9.3 g per 100 g (≥ 20% DV)
• Low fat — 2.5 g per 100 g (≤ 3 g)
• Low saturated fat — 0 g per 100 g (≤ 1 g)
• Sodium free — 0 mg per 100 g (< 5 mg)
• Sugar free — 0 g total sugars per 100 g (< 0.5 g)
