Which nutritional standard describes the amounts of energy, protein, minerals, and vitamins needed by healthy adults?

RDA stands for Recommended Dietary Allowance. It specifies the daily amount of each nutrient—energy, protein, minerals, and vitamins—that is enough to meet the needs of virtually all healthy adults. RDAs are part of the Dietary Reference Intakes and are set from scientific data to cover about 97–98% of individuals. Other terms like Retinol Activity Equivalents or other acronyms aren’t used as the standard daily intake guidance for these nutrients, so RDAs are the best description of the amounts needed.
