The results show that 100 g of ripe ‘Lahi’, ‘Apantu’, ‘Bira’, ‘To’o’, ‘Sepi’ and ‘Hung Tu’ fruit contains enough vitamin A to meet >100% of the DRIs (DRI) of a child below five years. It has been reported that consumption of 250 g fw (approximately 2 fingers) of cooked banana fruit by a child below five years and 500 g (approximately 3 fingers) by a woman of reproductive age in Banana growing and consuming regions of Africa is considered to be within normal consumption levels (Rodriguez-Amaya, 1997). Therefore, under normal consumption levels, all the tested cultivars would exceed
the DRI for vitamin A for children below five years except ‘Bungaoisan’ that would meet 68.4% of the DRIs, respectively. Daily consumption of 100 g of the cultivars under study by women will be able to meet 15.1–101.9% of the 700 mg RAE DRI, while daily consumption of 500 g (approximately 4 fingers) would meet 75.4– 509.5% of the DRIs. All the cultivars with the exception of ‘Bungaoisan’ are able to exceed 100% of the women’s DRIs if 500 g of fruit is consumed.
