Acknowledgments
The Panel on Dietary Reference Intakes for Electrolytes and Water, the Standing Committee on the Scientific Evaluation of Dietary Reference Intakes, and the Food and Nutrition Board (FNB) staff are grateful for the time and effort of the many contributors to the report and to the workshops and meetings leading up to the report. Through openly sharing their considerable expertise and different outlooks, these individuals brought clarity and focus to the challenging task of setting Dietary Reference Intakes for water, potassium, sodium chloride, and sulfate for humans. The list below mentions those individuals with whom we worked closely, but many others also deserve our heartfelt thanks. Those individuals, whose names we do not know, made important contributions to the report by offering suggestions and opinions at the many professional meetings and workshops the committee members attended. A number of the organizations listed below provided nominations for panel membership. The panel and committee members, as well as the FNB staff, thank the following named (as well as unnamed) individuals and organizations:
