Daily Values
On food and supplement labels, you will see nutrients listed as "Percent Daily Value," or the relative amount of that nutrient in a portion of food, compared to another standard of dietary needs. This "DV" amount is different from the RDA.

Vitamin A (& beta-carotene)			5000	IU
Vitamin C					60	mg
Vitamin D					400	IU
Vitamin E					30	IU
Thiamin (B1)					1.5	mg
Riboflavin (B2)					1.7	mg
Niacin (& niacinamide; B3)			20	mg
Pyridoxine (B6)					2.0	mg
Folate (folic acid)				0.4	mg
Cobalamin (B12)					6.0	mcg
Biotin						0.3	mg
Pantothenic acid (B5)				10	mg
Calcium						1000	mg
Iron						18	mg
Phosphorus					1000	mg
Iodine						150	mcg
Magnesium					400	mcg
Zinc						15	mg
Copper						2	mg
Sodium						2500	mg
Potassium					4000	mg

There are no Daily Values for other nutrients, such as vitamin K, manganese, selenium and chromium, but this does not mean they are unimportant.

Healthy Dietary Allowances
My own recommendations of minimums for basic health are clearly different from the RDA levels and the Daily Values. They reflect both food sources and extra nutrients derived from dietary supplements.

For basic preventive medicine, free-radical protection, and health enhancement I recommend:

Vitamin A (& beta-carotene)			25,000	IU
Vitamin C					4,000	mg
Vitamin D					400	IU
Vitamin E					400	IU
Thiamin (B1)					100	mg
Riboflavin (B2)					50	mg
Niacin (& niacinamide; B3)			150	mg
Pyridoxine (B6)					100	mg
Folate (folic acid)				5,000	mcg
Cobalamin (B12)					100	mcg
Biotin						0.3	mg
Pantothenic acid (B5)				100	mg
Calcium						500	mg
Iron						18	mg
Phosphorus					1,000	mg
Iodine						150	mcg
Magnesium					500	mg
Zinc						30	mg
Copper						3	mg
Sodium						1,000	mg
Potassium					4,000	mg

Notice that my recommended level for sodium is lower than the DV. It is more a reflection of need than the DV, since excess sodium is unhealthy. The DV is based, in part, on what people are actually getting from food, rather than what is ideal for health. Since consumption of salt is usually so high (5000-13,000 mg daily!), the DV is actually above what you really need.

My recommendation for calcium is also lower than the RDA. This is predicated on your eating a healthier diet than the one common in the United States and many other industrialized countries. If you eat too much protein (especially animal protein), caffeine, sugar, salt, and sodas, then you will very likely need more calcium. You may also need more calcium if you lead a sedentary lifestyle, although more dietary calcium is no substitute for weight-bearing exercise, such as walking or jogging, if maintaining bone density is one of your goals. If you have adequate mag-nesium nutrition, it is probably quite safe to take extra calcium.
