Document Summary
The estimated average requirement for a nutrient is the amount that covers half the population. The recommended dietary allowance for a nutrient is set well above the ear covering about 98% of the population (the other. 2% may need more due to medications, genetic abnormalities, underlying diseases etc. ) The ai is for nutrients we don"t know how much we should be taking (not enough data), this value comes from an educated guess rather than randomized control trials. The rda for calcium has been updated (it is on avenue) The goal of the dri is to recommend a diet that provides adequate but not excessive, levels of nutrients. These recommendations apply to healthy people, so there"s a different guidance for people with risk factors or diseases different guidance for people with risk factors or diseases. Rda or ai is best for individual goal setting.
