Cereal: Nutrition Facts and Calories

Cereal includes a wide variety of packaged grain-based foods, commonly eaten for breakfast, such as cold cereals and hot oatmeal. When choosing cereals, the Nutrition Facts label and ingredient list can help you make informed decisions. Look for cereals that are higher in fiber, which can come from whole grains. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) suggest choosing foods with no amount of added sugars. The DGA also recommends limiting saturated fat to less than 10% of your daily calories. For sodium, the FDA's Daily Value is 2,300 milligrams per day. Check the ingredient list for whole grains, like whole wheat or whole oats, listed among the first ingredients. Cereals with added fruits, nuts, or seeds can also contribute to a balanced diet. These choices can help you select cereals that fit your dietary needs.
