Protein Current scientific evidence indicates that
protein intake is not a public health concern for adults and children over the age of 4 years old.
A %DV is required to be listed if a claim is made for protein, such as "high in protein". Otherwise, unless the food is meant for use by infants and children under 4 years old, none is needed.
