In Real RDAs for Real People, you'll discover how our common nutrition guidelines--the recommended daily allowances (or RDAs) and the new dietary reference intakes (or DRIs)--are inadequate, flawed and ultimately misleading.\nEveryone would agree that the physiological make-up of a 17-year-old male and a 57-year-old female are quite different, yet the recommendations for individuals such as these (and everyone, for that matter) are the same. With wry wit and first-rate reporting, author Mike Fillon dissects this ¡§one-size-fits-all¡¨ approach, as well as the many other problems that plague today¡¦s nutrition guidelines. More importantly, he provides realistic and accurate recommendations¡Xdepending on your sex, age, and other factors¡Xthat you can use to achieve excellent health.\nReal RDAs for Real People answers these compelling questions:\n„h Who decides how our nutrition guidelines are created?\n„h What are the behind-the-scenes politics that influence government guidelines?\n„h Are there any guidelines tailored just for you?\n„h Are all types of nutrients equally important?\n„h What are the differences between RDAs, RDIs, DRI¡¦s, etc.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1580543561\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.1580543561.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Mike Fillon|Allan Spreen\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in good condition with very minimal damage.
