RDA = Recommended Dietary Allowance — the daily intake sufficient for 97–98% of healthy individuals.
AI = Adequate Intake — used when an RDA cannot be determined; believed to cover the needs of all individuals in the group.
UL = Tolerable Upper Intake Level — the maximum daily intake unlikely to cause adverse effects. Absence of a UL does not mean unlimited intake is safe.
Magnesium UL applies only to supplemental magnesium from pharmacological agents, not from food and water.
Niacin UL applies to supplemental nicotinic acid only, not niacin naturally present in food.
Folate UL applies to synthetic folic acid from supplements and fortified foods, not naturally occurring food folate.
Protein personalised value calculated as body weight × g/kg/day for your age group.

Reference table showing the FDA 2020 Daily Values used on U.S. nutrition labels (based on a 2,000-calorie diet), alongside IOM/NASEM Dietary Reference Intakes for common adult life stages. Values marked RDA are Recommended Dietary Allowances; values marked AI are Adequate Intakes (used when an RDA cannot be determined).

RDA = Recommended Dietary Allowance (sufficient for 97–98% of individuals) | AI = Adequate Intake (presumed adequate when an RDA cannot be established) | ND = Not Determined (insufficient data for a UL)
