The revised edition of the dietary standards is changed from "Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA)" to Recommended Energy and Nutrient Intakes (RENI) to emphasize that the standards are in terms of nutrients, and not foods or diets. RENIs are defined as levels of intakes of energy and nutrients which, on the basis of current scientific knowledge, are considered adequate for the maintenance of health and well being of nearly all healthy persons in the population. For most nutrients, they are equal to the average physiologic requirement (AR), corrected for incomplete utilization or dietary nutrient bioavailability, plus two standard deviations (SD), or twice an assumed coefficient of variation (CV), to cover the needs of almost all individuals in the population.

There is no need for concern, the vitamins in Berocca are at levels above the RENI but they are all below the Upper Safe Levels. The RENI (Recommended Energy and Nutrient Intake) of vitamins is the standard nutrient recommendation to prevent deficiency as researched by the Food and Nutrition Research Institute together with the Department of Science and Technology and published in their Philippine Edition 2002. Some supplements contain levels of vitamins and minerals above the RENI. This is because, for some nutrients, intakes above the RENI are safe and may be associated with particular benefits. For most vitamins and minerals Upper Safe Levels have also been established so that both manufacturers and consumers can be made aware of the levels of intake which allow people to optimize their diets safely.
