Major issues raised in developing General Principles
Which reference intake values can be used as basis of NRVs? • INL98 vs ANR (mean)
Which age groups of daily intake reference values should be considered? • Highest age group vs Population-weighted
vs Specific population group

ANR is the best estimate of the nutrient requirement for a given individual.
INL98 is the best estimate of an intake value that will meet the requirements of practically all who will be using the label in the population.

How consumer interpret the NRVs on nutrition labeling ?
Consumers are likely to expect that a product with 100% of the NRV has a high probability of nutrient adequacy, not a 50% probability of adequacy.
Murphy S. and Barr S, AJCN, 2006
This favors INL98 as the basis of the NRV.

Relevant and recent daily nutrient intake values provided by FAO/WHO should be taken into consideration as primary sources in establishing NRVs.
Relevant and recent values that reflect independent review of the science, from recognized authoritative scientific bodies other than FAO/WHO could also be taken into consideration. Higher priority should be given, as appropriate, to values in which the evidence has been evaluated through a systematic review.
