Area of Science:

  • Nutrition Science
  • Exercise Physiology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • The symposium addresses the comprehensive development of Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs), North America's updated nutritional guidelines.
  • It highlights the extensive effort, including 12 major reports from 1997-2004, underpinning these recommendations.

Framework:

  • The DRIs establish evidence-based recommendations for nutrient intake to maintain health.
  • Key considerations for physical activity levels were integrated into the DRI framework.
  • This review examines the scientific basis and methodology behind the established DRIs.

Implementation:

  • The symposium provides a timely review of the established DRIs.
  • It details the specific factors related to physical activity incorporated during the DRI setting process.
