NOTE: This table presents Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) and Adequate Intakes (Ais) in ordinary type followed by an asterisk (*). RDAs and Ais may both be used as goals for individual intake. RDAs are set to meet the needs of almost all (97 to 98 percent) individuals in a group. For healthy breastfed infants, the Ai is the mean intake. The Ai for other life stage and gender groups is believed to cover needs of all individuals in the group, but lack of data or uncertainty in the data prevent being able to specify with confidence the percentage of individuals coevered by this intake.
