title: [Energy and nutritional requirements for the European population].
abstract: Recommended dietary allowances were prepared by the Scientific Committee for Food an published by the Commission of the European Communities in 1993. Recommended allowances for energy were evaluated on the basis of basal metabolic rate (BMR), calculated individually with the help of the regression equations prepared by Expert Consultation of FAO/WHO/UNU (Geneva, 1985), and by the multiples of BMR according to the intensity of work loads and their duration within the framework of occupational and leisure activities during the day. Recommended allowance for protein is 0.75 g/kg body weight/day, which relates to high quality protein). Allowances for children, pregnant and lactating women are higher. This document gives also the values for essential fatty acids, vitamins and minerals.
