The adequate intakes (ais) are determined through
a. observation of children over the age of two years.
b. observation of healthy individuals.
c. observation of individuals with nutrient deficiencies.
d. both b and
c.

The correct answer is- B. observation of healthy individuals.

Adequate Intakes (AIs) can be described as an average value of daily nutrient intake, which is based on experimentally derived approximate value of nutrients for a group of healthy people.

They correspond to the average requirement of nutrients ( such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins) that are essential for a healthy lifestyle of an individual.

Thus, option B) is the right answer.
