🔍Why Dual Storage?

✓ Original Label Preservation

We store the exact serving size and nutrient values from the manufacturer label. This creates an audit trail and allows you to verify our data against the physical product.

✓ NRC Calculation Compatibility

NRC standards require nutrients per 100g for calculations. We automatically convert the label data to this format using simple mathematics (no estimation).

✓ Professional Transparency

Veterinarians and nutritionists can see both formats, verify the conversion, and trust the data integrity. No black boxes.

💎 Why This Matters for You

• Trust: Clear distinction between USDA data and manufacturer data

• Verification: You can verify manufacturer data against the physical product label

• Transparency: See both original label data and calculated per-100g values

• Professional: Proper source attribution for veterinary consultation

• Accuracy: Mathematical conversion only (no estimation or guessing)
