The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 63 calories for 1 scoop at 14 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 448 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 1.1 g protein, 2.5 g fiber, and 66 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is beverages, unilever, slimfast shake mix, powder, 3-2-1 plan, representing 100% of the record’s listed input weight. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 scoop at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
Record-specific decision brief
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2710738: “Nutritional powder mix, sugar free (Slim Fast).” It separates gram-weight arithmetic, corpus context, label signals, and record selection so one number does not have to answer four different questions.
01 · Portion arithmetic
For FDC 2710738, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “125% of the reference weight” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 75% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 10.5 g | 47 kcal | 0.9 g | 1.9 g | 50 mg |
| 1 scoopUSDA-listed household measure | 14 g | 63 kcal | 1.1 g | 2.5 g | 66 mg |
| 125% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 17.5 g | 78 kcal | 1.4 g | 3.2 g | 83 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 11 exact records in the Protein and nutritional powders USDA category. Here, “upper quarter” describes FDC 2710738’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2710738’s 14 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin A; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Sodium. Percentages use FDA label Daily Values, whose general “high” guide begins at 20% Daily Value. This is not an overall score or a personalized target.
Vitamin A144.2 µg
≈ 16% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Magnesium54 mg
≈ 13% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium66 mg
≈ 3% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat0.2 g
≈ 1% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Nutritional powder mix, sugar free (Slim Fast),” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2710737 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 10.5–17.5 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 47 kcal and 78 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has calories than “Nutritional powder mix (Slim Fast).” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
USDA derives this record from one listed source-input row at 100 g. Real preparations can still differ in water, cooking state, brand, and served weight.

Inside the source record
USDA links FDC 2710738 to one source input totaling 100 g in its standardized formulation. Publishing that exact provenance makes “Nutritional powder mix, sugar free (Slim Fast)” inspectable beside similarly named records.
How to read this
Beverages, UNILEVER, SLIMFAST Shake Mix, powder, 3-2-1 Plan is the only listed source input for this record. That does not mean every real-world version is identical; brands, preparation, water content, and portion weight can still differ.

Exact-record context
For FDC 2710738, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Protein and nutritional powders” category for shared description terms or source inputs. Any surviving pair is compared per 100 grams, so unlike source-serving sizes cannot manufacture the nutrient difference.

Plain-English read
The six displayed nutrient values are close under a conservative materiality screen. Small differences remain exact source values, not evidence that one food is preferable.
Formulation evidence
The USDA input rows shown on these profiles are identical. The nutrient or portion distinction therefore should not be attributed to a different named input.
Shared listed inputs: Beverages, UNILEVER, SLIMFAST Shake Mix, powder, 3-2-1 Plan.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 14 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 scoop (14 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 26 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 scoop (26 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2710738 with FDC 2710737 at equal mass; use their 14 g and 26 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2710738 versus FDC 2710737 is a comparison of standardized source records—not a measurement of your meal, an overall food-quality rank, or proof that one input caused a difference.

Uncertainty, made actionable
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with portion size, preparation, added fat, sauce or seasoning.
For “Nutritional powder mix, sugar free (Slim Fast),” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
Match the method named by the source—such as baked, fried, boiled, or grilled—before scaling. Preparation can change both water content and the ingredients retained in the finished food.
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
How we estimated this
FDC 2710738 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 448 kcal per 100 g becomes 63 kcal at 14 g through nutrient per portion = nutrient per 100 g × portion grams ÷ 100; this page adds no second nutrition estimate.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” The separately listed 1 scoop has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2710738
FNDDS food code: 95210010
The scaling for FDC 2710738 can be exact while the match to “Nutritional powder mix, sugar free (Slim Fast)” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 14 g weight, 1-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
