who spearhead the development of human
nutrient requirement?
- World Health Organization (WHO)
- Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)
adopted by countries as part of their national dietary allowances or as bases for national standards.
dietary reference intakes (DRIs)
common bases for all countries to develop food-based dietary guidelines for their populations
nutritional requirements
developed to establish a basis for public food and nutrition, health and agricultural policies and nutrition education programs
food-based dietary guidelines
PH’s measure food and nutrient requirements tools and standards
- Philippine Dietary Reference Intake (PDRI)
- the dietary guidelines
- the food guides
a set of dietary standards designed for Filipinos for the daily intake of energy and nutrients and other food components
Philippine Dietary Reference Intake (PDRI)
***prepared by the Food and Nutrition Research Institute (FNRI)
four components of the PDRI
- the estimated average requirement (EAR)
- the recommended energy/ nutrient intake (REI/ RNI)
- the adequate intake (AI)
- the tolerable upper intake level or upper limit (UL)
PDRI component
“the daily nutrient intake level that meets the median or average requirement of healthy individuals in a particular** life stage and sex group**, corrected for incomplete utilization or dietary nutrient bioavailability”
estimated average requirement (EAR)
PDRI component
“the level of intake of energy or nutrient is considered adequate for the maintenance of health and well-being of healthy persons in the population”
recommended energy/ nutrient intake (REI/ RNI)
“the daily nutrient intake level based on an observed or experimentally-determined approximation of the average nutrient intake by a group (or groups) of apparently healthy people that is assumed to sustain a defined nutritional state. It is used when there is insufficient data to establish EAR”
adequate intake (AI)
“the highest average daily nutrient intake level likely to pose no adverse health effects to almost all individuals in the general population”
tolerable upper intake level or upper limit (UL)
common uses of PDRI
- assessing people’s nutrient intakes
- planning diets
- educational materials
- for food fortification
- nutri labeling and claims
- safety
- food prod targets
- designing and evaluating food assistance programs
using the PDRI, intakes can be quantitatively evaluated for their adequacy of the nutrient requirement/reference intake using the formula below:
% adequacy = actual intake / reference intake x 100
set of dietary guidelines based on the eating pattern, lifestyle, and health status of Filipinos
Nutritional Guidelines for Filipinos (NGF)
“graphic representations of all or some of the messages of the dietary guidelines”
food guides
these represent the recommended food groups in the suggested proportions for a good diet
food guides

the food ________ shows at a glance the whole day food intake recommendation
while the food ________ is a quick and easy guide on what and how much to eat per mealtime
pyramid; plate
