% Daily Value is how much 100 g contributes to the FDA Daily Values for adults and children 4 years and older, the figures on US nutrition labels; a dash means there is no Daily Value for that nutrient. "Not reported" means USDA has no measurement for this food, not that it contains none.

low
  • Net carbs are total carbohydrate minus fiber: 0 g − 0 g = 0 g per 100 g. Low-carb plans usually count these.
  • Protein per 100 kcal compares how much protein each food gives for the same calories: Catfish gives 12.8 g.
  • Energy density is calories per gram. At 1.44 kcal/g, Catfish is low on the CDC's scale (very low below 0.6, low to 1.5, medium to 4, high above 4); lower-density foods give a larger portion for the same calories.
