aIron values were based on results of calculations that used the probability method. Details appear in Appendix I.

bTMIs for sodium based on the Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL) for the age group. The TMI for the 6–10-year-old age group is based on a weighted average of the ULs for the 4–8-and 9–10-year-old group.
