Estimated Average Requirement (EAR):
When florid manifestations of the classic dietary deficiency diseases such as rickets, scurvy, xerophthalmia, and protein-calorie malnutrition were common, nutrient adequacy was inferred from the absence of their clinical signs. Later, it was determined that ... and other changes were evident long before the clinical deficiency became apparent. |

Estimated average requirement:
Consequently, criteria of nutrient adequacy are now based on ... when they are available.

Estimated Average Requirement:
The EAR is the amount of a nutrient estimated to be adequate for ... of the healthy individuals of a specific age and sex. The types of evidence and criteria used to establish nutrient requirements vary by nutrient, age, and physiologic group. The EAR ... useful clinically for estimating nutrient adequacy in individuals because it is a median requirement for a group; 50% of individuals in a group fall below the requirement and 50% fall above it. Thus, a person with a usual intake at the EAR has a 50% risk of an inadequate intake. |

The ... is the nutrient-intake goal for planning diets of individuals; it is used in the MyPyramid food guide of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), therapeutic diets, and descriptions of the nutritional content of processed foods and dietary supplements.
The nutrient content in a food is stated by weight or as a percentage of the daily value (DV), a variant of the RDA that, for an adult, represents the highest RDA for an adult consuming 2000 kcal/d, of average workload without disease. |
RDA
|
|
Recommended Dietary Allowances:
The RDA is the average daily dietary intake level that meets the nutrient requirements of nearly all ... persons of a specific sex, age, life stage, or physiologic condition (such as pregnancy or lactation). The RDA is defined statistically as ... standard deviations (SD) above the EAR to ensure that the needs of most individuals are met. |

Tolerable Upper Levels of Nutrient Intake:
The lack of a UL does not mean that the risk of adverse effects from high intake is nonexistent. Individual nutrients in foods that most people eat rarely reach levels that exceed the UL. Nutritional supplements provide more concentrated amounts of nutrients per dose and, as a result, pose a greater potential risk of .... Nutrient supplements are labeled with "Supplement Facts" that express the amount of nutrient in absolute units or as the percent of the DV provided per recommended serving size. |

Acute care settings:
Acutely ill patients with diet-related diseases such as diabetes require assessment because an inappropriate diet may exacerbate these conditions and adversely affect other therapies. Abnormal biochemical values [serum albumin levels <... g/L (<... mg/dL); serum cholesterol levels <... mmol/L (<... mg/dL)] are nonspecific but may also indicate a need for further nutritional assessment. |

Acute care settings:
Most therapeutic diets offered in hospitals are calculated to meet individual nutrient requirements and the RDA. However, there are exceptions including clear liquids, some full liquid diets, and test diets, which are inadequate for several nutrients and should not be used, if possible, for more than 24 h. As much as half of the food served to hospitalized patients ... eaten, so it cannot be assumed that the intakes of hospitalized patients are adequate. |
