 I agree that the Daily Values article (more of a snippet, really!) should be subsumed within the Reference Daily Intake article. [Another reader] 

 ==Add a list of values== 
 I'm currently working on a template box with nutritional information: template:nutritionalvalue. I'm considering to add a link to this page with a more extensive list of RDA values (including age groups etc.), and maybe also the equivalents for different countries. Would this be appropriate? Are there for example copyright issues if you reproduce all the data from the official list?   

 ==Completely meaningless== 
 RDI/RDV is meaningless, because there are so many variables that determine what a persons intake should be, such as their gender, weight, age, activity levels, etc. that there is no possible way to determine what an average daily intake should be.  
 :The FDA tables give different values depending on age group and sex. If you look up the numbers, you will see that generally 25-year-old men have the highest need, and that usually these values are taken as a ""Daily value"" on nutritional labeling. Wikipedia is not a place for primary research, but if you can provide a reference that supports your concern, it could be mentioned in the article.
