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:
- Low calorie — 36 kcal per 100 g (≤ 40)
- Low fat — 0.2 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)
