The UL represent the maximum amount of a nutrient that ap- pears safe for most healthy people to consume on a regular ba- sis. Turn the page for a listing of the UL for selected vitamins and minerals. The glossary on the inside back cover defines units of nutrient measure. a Niacin recommendations are expressed as niacin equivalents NE , except for recommendations for infants younger than 6 months, which are expressed as preformed niacin. bFolate recommendations are expressed as dietary folate equivalents DFE. cVitamin A recommendations are expressed as retinol activity equivalents RAE. d Vitamin D recommendations are expressed as cholecalciferol and assume an absence of adequate exposure to sunlight. eVitamin E recommendations are expressed as α-tocopherol. bThe UL for vitamin A applies to the preformed vitamin only. Tolerable Upper Intake Levels UL for Vitamins dThe UL for magnesium applies to synthetic forms obtained from supplements or drugs only.

NOTE: An Upper Limit was not established for vitamins and minerals not listed and for those age groups listed with a dash — because of a lack of data, not because these nutrients are safe to consume at any level of intake. All nutrients can have adverse effects when intakes are excessive. SOURCE: Adapted with permission from the Dietary Reference Intakes series, National Academies Press.
