FNB Suggested Goals

Accordingly, the primary goal of having new dietary reference values was not only to prevent nutrient deficiencies, but also to reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as osteoporosis, cancer and cardiovascular disease.

Four types of DRI reference values:
(1) EAR - Estimated Average Requirement,
(2) RDA - Recommended Dietary Allowance,
(3) AI - Adequate Intake, and
(4) UL - Tolerable Upper Intake Level.
