multiple choice
recommended dietary allowance
acceptable macronutrient distribution range
dietary guidelines for americans
estimated average requirement

Explanation:

The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) is the average daily dietary intake level that is sufficient to meet the nutrient requirements of nearly all (97 - 98%) healthy individuals in a particular life - stage and gender group, protecting against nutritional deficiency. The Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range focuses on macronutrients and proportions rather than individual nutrient sufficiency for deficiency prevention. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans are a set of recommendations for overall healthy eating patterns. The Estimated Average Requirement is the average daily nutrient intake level estimated to meet the requirement of half of the healthy individuals in a particular life - stage and gender group, and may not protect all individuals from deficiency.
