Synopsis

Calcium and vitamin D are essential nutrients for the human body. Establishing the levels of these nutrients that are needed is based on the understanding of the health outcomes that calcium and vitamin D affect. It is also important to establish how much of each nutrient may be too much. Dietary Reference Intakes for Calcium and Vitamin D provides reference intake values for these two nutrients. The report updates the DRI values defined in Dietary Reference Intakes for Calcium, Phosphorous, Magnesium, Vitamin D, and Fluoride, the 1997 study from the Institute of Medicine. This 2011 book provides background information on the biological functions of each nutrient, reviews health outcomes that are associated with the intake of calcium and vitamin D, and specifies Estimated Average Requirements and Recommended Dietary Allowances for both. It also identifies Tolerable Upper Intake Levels, which are levels above which the risk for harm may increase. A final chapter provides research recommendations. The DRIs established in this book incorporate current scientific evidence about the roles of calcium and vitamin D in human health and will serve as a valuable guide for a range of stakeholders including dieticians and other health professionals, those who set nutrition policy, researchers, the food industry, and private and public health organisations and partnerships.
