We substituted our model-derived bone calcium accrual averaged over the age ranges of 9–13 and 14–18 y for calcium accretion, age ranges used by the IOM, but we retained all of the other components of the factorial method as shown in Table 16.1. Next we substituted our model-derived peak calcium accrual for calcium accretion into the factorial equation. A comparison of the calcium EARs determined using the three approaches for adolescents is shown in Table 16.3. The RDAs were determined from the EAR plus 2 SD. Using our model-derived peak calcium accrual estimates, we determined that the percent of individuals not meeting their peak demand would be 95.1 % for girls and 98.6 % for boys using the current IOM EAR.Table 16.3Adolescent calcium DRIs using three approaches for determining calcium accrual needs
