- a
Representative anthropometry for modeling, based on Frisancho (1990).
- b
Computed by equation of Haycock et al. (1978).
- c
Derived from Table 9-7.
- d
Based on 0.538 mg/m2/d, extrapolated from Green et al. (1968).
- e
Based on assumed 0.7 g/kg body weight gain (Smith and Rios, 1974).
- f
Calculated as 12 percent of total iron deposition through 3.0 years of age then falling; no provision for storage at 9.0 years of age.
- g
Estimates derived from simulated population that take into account impact of skewing and are the basis for the Estimated Average Requirement (EAR) and Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA).
- h
Requirements for infants and young children were estimated by different methods. Upper limit of absorption for infants and children is 10 and 18 percent, respectively. See text for methods used for infants and children.
