Start with vitamin A. How does your intake of vitamin A, measured in retinol activity equivalents (RAE),
compare with the DRI? What percentage of your recommended intake did you consume?
List the foods from your diet record that contributed the greatest amount of vitamin A. If you consumed less
than the recommendation, what foods could you incorporate into your diet in order to meet the
recommendation? If you consumed more than the recommendation, was this too much? Why or why not? How
does your intake compare with the Tolerable Upper Level (UL) for vitamin A, which is shown on page C at the
end of your text, following the index. What are the health issues associated with deficient intake of vitamin A?
Are there risk factors associated with over consumption of vitamin A? If so, what are they?
