Hi there
According to the nutritional info from the UK company that distribute Rice
Dream the following information may be useful all values are per 100ml
Energy 217KJ/51Kcal
Protein 0.2g
Carbohydrate 10.6g
of which:
sugars 4.7g
Fat
of which:
saturates 0.1g
Mono-saturates 0.6g
polyunsaturates 0.1g
Cholestrol NIL
Dietary Fibre NIL
Sodium 39.1mg
Potassium 5.5mg
Calcium 8.4mg (naturally present no extra calcium added)
Phosphorus 24mg
I know it doesn't sound that healthy and nutrious but it keeps my daughter
and wife going (along with soya and goat's milk) so it can't be all bad.
