Revised dietary guidelines adjust intake for young adults and smokers
The National Research Council updates the Recommended Dietary Allowances, boosting calcium to 1200 mg daily for 19 to 24 year olds and increasing vitamin C for smokers to at least 100 mg. Experts urge a varied diet with dairy, leafy vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and lean proteins, noting fat needs are small and nutrients degrade with heat and light.
