NTR Care Process - 4 interrelated steps |
1. Assessment |
|
Evolution of RDAs to DRI |
Replaced by DRIs due to limitations - no recs for older adults, no recs for macronutrients, no guidance for nutrient supplements |

Uses of Biochem Measures |
Detect abnormal NTR status BEFORE clinical signs/symptoms or change in anthropometrics |
|
Limitations of Biochem Measures |
Method limitations |
|
Direct tests (Static) |
Nutrient or it metabolite -in blood, urine, tissue, saliva, breast milk, amniotic fluid, hair, nails, mucus, RBC, WBC |
|
Indirect tests (Functional) |
End-product of a process that requires the nutrient for optimal performance |
|
