1/2 cup cooked pasta. 1 cup of ready-to-eat cereal. 1 serving of a grain food.

When a nutrient still requires more research in order to set a DRI standard, a(n) ______ standard is set.

Adequate Intake (AI)

Choose the accurate AMDR. Protein 20-35% Carbohydrate 45-65% Fat 10-35%

CARBOHYDRATE 45-65% Reason: AMDR for protein is 10-35% of total energy intake. AMDR for fat is 20-35% of total energy intake.

Which Dietary Reference Intake sets a nutrient intake level that reduces chronic disease risk within a healthy population? Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range (AMDR) Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA) Chronic Disease Risk Reduction Intakes (CDRR) Adequate Intake (AI)

CDRR

The average daily energy intake that meets the needs of a healthy person maintaining his weight is the______.

EER Estimated Energy Requirement

If you frequently eat less than the _____ for a nutrient, you may be at risk for developing the nutrient's deficiency disorder.

Estimated Average Requirement (EAR)

Choose the seven standards that make up the Dietary Reference Intakes.

Estimated Energy Requirement Chronic Disease Risk Reduction Intake Adequate Intake Estimated Average Requirements Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range Recommended Dietary Allowance Tolerable Upper Intake Level

Your diet is likely to be nutritionally adequate if your average daily intake for each nutrient meets the nutrient's _____ or AI value.

RDA

The highest average amount of a nutrient that is unlikely to harm most people is called the _____.

Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL)

The RDA is established by adding _____ to the EAR.

a margin of safety

AI (Adequate Intake)

a recommended average daily nutrient intake level based on observed or experimentally determined estimates of nutrient intake by a group of healthy people. estimated from average daily nutrient intake from population studies

The Tolerable Upper Intake Level is the maximum chronic daily intake of a nutrient _____.

above which toxicity effects are likely that is unlikely to cause health effects in almost all people

When there isn't enough research to establish a RDA, a(n) _____ is set.

adequate intake (or AI)

EER (estimated energy requirement)

average daily energy intake that meets needs of a healthy person who is maintaining his/her weight based on physical activity level, height, weight, age, gender, and life stage

Dietary Reference Intakes are intended to help people______.

reduce their risk of nutrient deficiencies achieve optimal health lower disease risk

The Tolerable Upper Intake Level is the maximum chronic daily intake of a nutrient _____.

that is unlikely to cause health effects in almost all people above which toxicity effects are likely

RDA (Recommended Dietary Allowance)

the average daily intake level estimated to meet the needs of nearly all people in a certain group. Aim for this amount! Nutrient recommendation backed by extensive research

UL (upper limit)

the highest amount of a nutrient that most individuals can consume without adverse effects nutrient with known toxicity levels or adverse effects
