High, to cover virtually all healthy individuals
High, to cover virtually all healthy individuals. -Got answer from Nutrition textbook. I am currently taking this class.
RDA means recommended daily allowance. The RDA says how much of a nutrient is recommended for maintenance of health.
Adequate Intake (AI)
The amount of a nutrient that meets the needs of about 98 percent of the population is termed the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA).
The five food group plan permits an individual to plan a menu to achieve nutrients intakes as specified by RDA
Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA) are calculated based on the average daily nutrient intake level that is sufficient to meet the requirements of nearly all (97-98%) healthy individuals in a specific life stage and gender group. These figures are derived from scientific research, including observational studies and clinical trials, which assess the relationship between nutrient intake and health outcomes. Expert committees review this data to establish values that account for variations in nutrient needs due to factors like age, gender, and physiological status.
one cup of rice has over 88% the daily recommended amount for manganese (not to mention 27% the RDA of selenium, 20% the rda of magnesium, 18% the RDA of tryptophan, and 14% the RDA of fiber).
Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) that can be used as goals for individual intake include the Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs), which specify daily nutrient levels to meet the needs of most healthy individuals, and Adequate Intakes (AIs), which are established when evidence is insufficient to determine an RDA. Additionally, Tolerable Upper Intake Levels (ULs) can guide individuals in avoiding excessive nutrient intake. Overall, these standards help individuals tailor their dietary choices to meet their nutritional needs effectively.

at very close to RDA
