Updated Estimates of Vitamin a Total Body Stores in Healthy Young Adults Determined by Compartmental Modeling with Vitamin a Intake Added as Data (FS06-07-19)

摘要

ObjectivesWe applied a new modeling approach to generate estimates of vitamin A total body stores (TBS) for previously-studied subjects (Green et al. J Nutr 2016;146:2129–36) who were consuming moderate amounts of preformed vitamin A. Based on recent work, we hypothesized that inclusion of an estimate of vitamin A dietary intake (DI) during modeling would help compensate for the less-than-optimal study duration (14 d).
