First, let's take a look at the macros. Each of these are listed in grams and as usual, normalized to 200 calories for easy comparison, so we're always comparing apples to apples.
| Granola | Whole grain bread |
| Nutrient | granola | whole grain bread |
| Protein | 6g | 10g |
| Carbohydrate | 22g | 33g |
| Fiber | 4g | 6g |
| Fat | 10g | 3g |
| Monounsat. Fat | 4g | 3g |
| Polyunsat. Fat | 4g | 1g |
| Saturated Fat | 2g | 1g |
Next, let's take a look at the Vitamin density. These values are shown in units of percent of recommended daily intake. And since we're showing 200 calories worth, this means anything above 10% is good.
| Nutrient | granola | whole grain bread |
| Choline | 5% | 5% |
| Vitamin A | 0% | 0% |
| Vitamin C | 1% | 0% |
| Vitamin E | 38% | 2% |
| Vitamin K | 4% | 1% |
Granola have significantly more Vitamins E than whole grain bread. Granola are a good source of Vitamin E, Thiamin, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Iron. Whole grain bread are a good source of Niacin, Phosphorus, Iron.
And here we see the B-vitamins: B1 (Thiamin), B2 (Riboflavin), B3 (Niacin), B5 (Pantothenic Acid), B6 (Pyridoxine)
| Nutrient | granola | whole grain bread |
| Vitamin B1 | 30% | 17% |
| Vitamin B2 | 11% | 9% |
| Vitamin B3 | 7% | 25% |
| Vitamin B5 | 13% | 5% |
| Vitamin B6 | 11% | 18% |
| Vitamin B12 | 0% | 0% |
Now, lets look at mineral density. Here we have a lot of important electrolytes and minerals. Once again, units are in percent of RDI, thus for this 200 calorie serving anything above 10% would considered high.
| Nutrient | granola | whole grain bread |
| Sodium | 1% | 21% |
| Potasium | 6% | 5% |
| Calcium | 6% | 15% |
| Magnesium | 20% | 17% |
| Phosphorus | 32% | 30% |
| Iron | 29% | 31% |
| Manganese | 72% | 66% |
| Selenium | 25% | 55% |
| Copper | 26% | 21% |
| Zinc | 18% | 14% |
