Explain the Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA)?

The recommended dietary allowances are estimates of nutrients to be consumed daily to ensure the requirements of all individuals are met in a given population. You may recall studying about this concept and the RDAs earlier. Growth is no longer an energy-demanding factor in adulthood as mentioned above, and BMR is relatively constant among population groups of a given age and gender. Consequently, habitual physical activity and body weight are the main determinants for the diversity in energy requirements, in particular for adult populations with different lifestyles.

Table presents the ICMR recommended dietary intakes of adults.
