Primer Section 3 Flashcards
RDA, AI, TUL, and EAR are subdivisions of what set of reference values meant to provide estimates of nutrient intakes for planning and assessing diets of apparently health people?
Recommended Daily Allowances
Total Nutrient Requirements
Dietary Reference Intakes
Nutrient Guidelines
Dietary Reference Intakes (DRI)
Which is the estimated daily intake of a nutrient needed to satisfy the requirement for that nutrient of most of the healthy individuals in a life stage or gender group?
Estimated Average Requirements (EARs)
Tolerable Upper Intakes (TUL)
Adequate Intakes (AI)
Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA)
Adequate Intake (AI)
Which is the estimate of daily intake needed to satisfy the requirement for 97-98% of healthy individuals in a life stage or gender group…these do not define physiologic requirements.
Estimated Average Requirements (EARs)
Tolerable Upper Intakes (TUL)
Adequate Intakes (AI)
Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA)
RDA
Which is the estimate of daily intake to satisfy the requirement for half of the health individuals in a life stage or gender group?
Estimated Average Requirements (EARs)
Tolerable Upper Intakes (TUL)
Adequate Intakes (AI)
Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA)
EAR
Which is the greatest daily intake that is likely to pose no risk of adverse health effects for almost all individuals in the general population? As the amount of the nutrient exceeds this level, adverse effects are more likely.
Estimated Average Requirements (EARs)
Tolerable Upper Intakes (TUL)
Adequate Intakes (AI)
Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA)
TUL
The USRDA was based on values from 1968. It has been replaced by which standard?
DRI
EAR (estimated average requirements)
DVs (daily values)
AIs (Adequate intakes)
Daily Values
Daily Values are based on Daily Reference Values and Reference Daily Intakes and estimates the percentage of a nutrient in a specific food product assuming what type of daily intake?
1000 kcal/d
1500 kcal/d
2000 kcal/d
2500 kcal/d
2000 kcal/d
Which includes standards for labeling foods related to total fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, total carbs, dietary fiber, protein, sodium, and potassium?
DV
Daily Reference Value
Dietary Reference Intakes
EARs
Daily Reference Values
Which provides standards for food labels related to vit A, Vit C, Vit E, Vit D, b1, b2, b3, b5, b7, b6, folate, b12, calcium, copper, iodine, iron, magnesium, phosphorous, zinc?
DV
Daily Reference Value
Dietary Reference Intakes
EARs
DRI
Food labels can inform consumers of implicit/explicit health benefits linked to the product.
True or False

Which type of claim informs the consumer of the direct health benefits related to consuming the product?
Health Claims
Structure/function claims
Nutrient Content Claims
