GDA stands for Guideline Daily Amount and is a guide to how
much energy and nutrients an adult with average weight and a moderate level of
physical activity should consume daily. The recommended daily intake of
nutrients for such a person is shown in the table.

The term GDA is exclusively related to the labeling of packaged foods, and shows how many per serving of product or 100 g of product contain calories, protein, carbohydrates, sugar, fiber, fat, saturated fat and salt in relation to the reference daily intake of 2000 kcal.
GDA aims to familiarize consumers with the characteristics of food and a daily selection of food of better nutritional quality (eg if you want to lose weight it is easier to choose foods with fewer calories and fat per serving).
