“Not available” means an ingredient lacks complete data; it does not mean zero.
Some ingredients use a specific reference product label. Check your product, especially salt and fat.
How are these values calculated?
Reference ingredient values are multiplied by their weights, summed, then divided by the serving count. These are ingredient-composition estimates, not laboratory analysis of the dish. Cooking losses and vitamin/mineral retention have not been measured. Ingredient weight may include preparation liquids and is not finished yield.
Sources: USDA FoodData Central and reference product labels where needed. Brands differ.
A reference model; use your product label and measured finished yield for closer estimates.
