MyPlate guidelines - ANSWER:provides practical health, activity, and nutritional
guidance for the client.
"Dietary reference intakes (DRIs) - ANSWER:Recommended dietary allowances
(RDAs), Adequate intake (AI), Tolerable upper intake level (UL), Estimated average
requirement (EAR
Recommended dietary allowances (RDAs) - ANSWER:recommended average daily
intake level that is sufficent to meet the nutrient requirement of nearly al healthy
individuals (97% to 98%) in the particular life stage of a gender group
Estimated average requirement (EAR - ANSWER:A daily nutrient intake value that is
estimated to meet the requirement of half the healthy individuals in a life stage and
gender group

that is likely to pose no risk of adverse health effects for almost all individuals in the
general population
Adequate intake (AI) - ANSWER:Recommended nutrient intake that is assumed to be
adequate. Based on observed or estimated nutrient intake by a group of healthy
people and is used when an r
