What is DRI?
Dietary Reference Intakes (DRI) are science-based nutrient reference values used for planning and assessing diets for healthy populations.
RDA vs UL
RDA is the recommended daily amount to meet nutritional needs. UL is the maximum daily intake unlikely to cause adverse health effects.
Personalized Values
Values vary based on age, sex, and life stage. Pregnant and lactating women have different requirements not shown here.
DRI Components
- • EAR: Estimated Average Requirement
- • RDA: Recommended Dietary Allowance
- • AI: Adequate Intake (when RDA not established)
- • UL: Tolerable Upper Intake Level
- • AMDR: Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range
- • CDRR: Chronic Disease Risk Reduction
Important Notes
- • Values are for healthy individuals
- • Medical conditions may alter requirements
- • Consult healthcare providers for personalized advice
- • Values are based on scientific consensus
