Answer:
The correct answer is '' to cover the needs of 97% of the population.''
Explanation:
The Recommended Daily Allowances or RDA, by definition, correspond to the average amount of a nutrient that a healthy person must ingest daily, through diet, to maintain a correct state of health. These established values are an approximate guide to meet the needs (intake level of a sufficient nutrient) of almost all (97 to 98%) individuals in the healthy population, but may vary due to factors such as age, sex or level of activity. It must be taken into account that each nutrient has a series of functions in the body, hence the importance of knowing the approximate amount that we should consume each day and, therefore, of knowing the RDA.
