Carbohydrate provides energy, while protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues. Fibre helps support normal bowel function. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake. Fillings and toppings can add salt, sugars, saturated fat and energy, depending on what is used.
