D.RDAs are set by the food industry.

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Explanation:

• RDAs do not prevent disease; they are only guidelines so not option A
• RDAs can change based on age, sex, and activity level so not C
• RDAs are set by the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine so not D
• If you look on food packaging, it says "recommended daily amounts based on a 2000 calorie diet" so by that and the process of elimination, we can conclude that B is correct.
