a. Analyze how much of the particular micronutrient selected is being consumed, and compare the actual intake versus the micronutrient’s established RDA to determine if the actual intake is adequate, inadequate or excessive based on the established upper limit. (please show work)
EX:
# + # + # + # + # = # # / # (personal RDA) = #% of personal total RDA Comparison of RDA versus personal intake Note if the current diet is adequate, excessive or inadequate.
