Experts of the ANS Panel have considered all available information and, following a detailed analysis, have concluded that the current Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) of 40mg/kg bw/day is protective for the general population.

CSE compared the levels of heavy metals found with their Acceptable Daily Intake ( ADI) limits.

It has recommended to the European Commission that the current acceptable daily intake (ADI) of 40 mg per kilo of body weight should be maintained.

Food and Drug Administration ** Acceptable Daily Intake based on a 150-pound adult; this amount is one percent of the minimum the FDA considers to be without adverse effects

Of 32 products tested, 10 (31%) overexpose consumers to chromium that could increase the risk for stomach tumors and nervous system problems, even when used in only "average" quantities; 66% of the products exceeded the acceptable daily intake of chromium with "high" use.

The study suggested that a lipstick used twice a day, provide more than 20 per cent of a person's acceptable daily intake (ADI) for aluminium, cadmium and manganese, while some exceeded the ADI for chromium- a metal that has been linked to stomach tumours.

RIIs comparing estimated metal intakes from lip products to the derived acceptable daily intake are presented in Figure 2.

Based on their findings, these researchers at Duke suspect that the acceptable daily intake (ADI) for sucralose in humans may be 500 times lower than the FDA recommendations!

The Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) for humans is 0-7.5 mg kg-1 body weight [2].

Also the acceptable daily intake (ADI) set by the committee of experts of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and World Health Organizations (WHO) of 40mg/kg body weight per day is not exceeded [15].

The EDI levels of chrome ranged from 0.003 mg/ kg/day to 0.005 mg/kg/day across the study sites and exceeded the acceptable daily intake limit of 0.001 mg/kg/day.
