* USDA, Cow milk: Milk, producer, fluid, 3.7 percent milk fat (NDB No. 01078).
1 Two cups =500 ml. Nutrient content in 2 cups of milk compared with the recommended nutrient values (RNIs) from FAO/WHO 2002.
2 üüü = 100 percent of RNI; üü = 70–99 percent of RNI; ü = 40–69 percent of RNI can be supplied by 2 cups of milk.
3 USDA, Cow milk: Milk, non-fat, fluid, without added vitamin A and vitamin D (fat free or skim) (NDB No. 01151)
RNI: recommended nutrient values from FAO/WHO 2002.
RE= retinol equivalents in μg = μg retinol + 1/6 μg β-carotene + 1/12 μg other provitamin A carotenoids. USDA values are for retinol activity equivalents, i.e. μg retinol + 1/12 μg β-carotene + 1/24 μg
other provitamin A carotenoids. However, for milk most of the vitamin A is in the form of retinol (and the separate values for β-carotene and other provitamin carotenoids are not available), so
the USDA values may be directly compared with the recommended daily allowance (RDA) value.
