Why do amounts of certain vitamins in some AdvoCare® products exceed 100% of RDIs? Reference Daily Intakes (RDIs) are the values for vitamins and minerals established by the Food and Drug Administration to ensure that adequate nutritional needs are met for most healthy individuals in all age groups. These values have been used for many years and are widely recognized. RDIs are based on the Recommended Daily Allowances (RDAs) set by the Food and Nutrition Board, National Research Council, Institute of Medicine, National Academy of Sciences. Many health experts, including all AdvoCare® Scientific & Medical Advisory Board members, believe that in many cases optimal nutrition provides benefits not available with merely adequate nutrition. For some nutrients, optimal nutrition is achieved at a level above 100% of the RDI. The Food and Nutrition Board (FNB) also sets tolerable upper intake levels (ULs). According to the FNB, ULs are amounts that are "likely to pose no risk of adverse health effects in almost all individuals in the general population". All AdvoCare products are formulated with safe nutrient levels well below ULs.!!
