Which situation would be the BEST use of the UL?

a. A family is concerned that their child does not consume enough calcium. You compare her estimated calcium intake to the UL.
b. You see a child with rickets. You suggest vitamin D supplements equal to the UL for vitamin D in addition to the multiple vitamin that the family has purchased.
 c. A family gives their 8-year old child a vitamin B6 supplement. You compare her intake to the UL and suggest that the family decrease the amount they are providing, since it is greater than the UL for 8-year olds.
