Compare two sweeteners for a 70 kg person: Sweetener X has ADI 10 mg/kg and Sweetener Y has ADI 4 mg/kg. Which sweetener allows a larger absolute daily intake in mg, and what are those mg values?

• A. Sweetener Y allows more: 280 mg/day for Y and 700 mg/day for X, because higher numeric ADI values indicate stricter limits rather than more allowable intake.
• B. You cannot compare them because ADI values are proprietary and cannot be expressed as absolute mg per day for individuals.
• C. Sweetener X allows more: 700 mg/day for X and 280 mg/day for Y.
• D. Both allow the same mg intake because ADIs are scaled differently across compounds and are not comparable by mg/kg conversions.
