	Female		Male
	19–50 years old	51+ years old	19–50 years old	51+ years old
SDD10	295.87	294.94	298.60	296.45

D/SDD15	12.75	12.77	12.70	12.74

Note. SD_D10 denotes the daily variation in individual intake of K estimated at 10% standard deviation, while SD_D15 denotes the estimate at 15%. Values used in the calculations: required intake = 2925 mg per day; standard deviations of the required intake at 10 and 15% (SD_r10 and SD_r15, respectively) = 292.5 mg per day and 438.75 mg per day, respectively.
