Table of Contents
1. Standards
For nutrients, vitamins and minerals, the daily intake standards are set.2. EAR
Average requirement. Determines the nutrient intake that is the average requirement for people in a given group (age group or gender).3. RDA
Recommended intake.. the standards developed at this level meet the needs of almost the entire group for which they were developed.4. A.A
Adequate intake. It is used when it is not possible to determine the exact EAR or RDA standards. Attention should be paid to the standards. In the planning of individual meals, the RDA should be guided. If RDA is lacking, the AI standard is used. If, on the other hand, a person's usual intake is assessed to estimate the likelihood of adequate dietary intake of certain ingredients, the EAR standard can be used, but also RDA.5. Energy demand for pregnant women
In 2017, experts recommended increasing the calorie intake of the diet only from the second trimester. In 2020, already in the first trimester, it is recommended to increase the energy intake. Not significantly because only by 85 kcal/day. In the second quarter, the additional recommended intake is slightly less than previously. Compared to the recommended increase in the diet for pregnant women. For women who are breastfeeding, the standards have not changed the additional daily energy intakes should be 505 kcal.6. Cholesterol
A healthy adult can safely consume 7 eggs per week (1 egg contains approximately 200 mg of cholesterol). Additional information is available to the elderly due to the high nutritional value of eggs and the ease of their intake with serum cholesterol in the blood normally can consume up to 2 eggs a day (according to the American Heart Association's egg statistics).7. It's a food fiber
In 2020, food fibre fractions were characterised in terms of water solubility, viscosity, susceptibility to fermentation, major sources of hemicellulose, cellulosis, pectins, hydrocoloids, inulin, fructane, oligosaccharide resistant, resistant starch.8. Manufacture from materials of any heading, except:
In 2020, the recommended daily intake of folia for boys was slightly increased.9. Sodium and chlorine
For all adult women and men regardless of age, the standards for these elements are: sodium 1500 mg/day, chlorine 2300 mg/ day. Previously these values decreased after age 51. Comparison of sodium and chlorine standards in the adult age group (from age 19).10. Reference consumption values for food labelling
One of the manufacturers' obligations under Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the provision of food information to consumers is to provide a percentage value that determines the extent to which a product in 100 g or 100 ml covers the reference values for the ingredients listed on the label in the European Union. Consistent reference values have been developed for adults. However, similar to the energy and macronutrient values (energy, fat, protein, reference materials, including carbohydrates), in the absence of a reference value expressed as a percentage of g g g/d. This would mean that the weight of the product in 90 g/g/d will be determined as follows:11. Dietary supplements
In 2020 information is also included on the latest resolutions of the Dietary Supplements Team (Advisory Team of the Inspectorate-General for Health). They can be found in the Standards and Supplementation section. In 2019 and 2020, experts have developed recommendations on the maximum amounts of vitamins and minerals that should be contained in the daily dose of the dietary supplement for adults recommended by the manufacturer.
