Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Diet Question Giving the Reason Why But a more important point to the physiologist is, that the food eaten is far more healthful and nutritious than the aforesaid articles; from the simple fact that it contains a much larger per cent. Of those Substances that are necessary to form bone, teeth, muscles, tendons, and the other tissues of the body. This is why one can work longer and with less fatigue on hygienic food than on any other it nourishes better. Were proof needed on this point, the tables in Part I., giving the constituents of food, ought to furnish it. Still another virtue belonging to this diet is, that it con tains no stimulating or abnormal substances, to tax the vital powers in getting rid of them; no salt, pepper, spices, or other irritating condiment everything is usable, in one way or another. Neither is there an excess of oily or saccharine matter, to clog the digestive or the excretory organs. But, to get at once to the root of the matter, we will take up the a, b, c, of the hygienic dietary resting assured that if our premises are correct, the conclusions will take care of them selves.

Book Diet in Health and Disease  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Diet in Health and Disease Classic Reprint written by Julius Friedenwald and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 922 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diet in Health and Disease The continued appreciation of the profession as evidenced by their using this book has added greatly to the endeavor to make the fifth edition of more value than the preceding ones. There are scarcely any subjects in medicine that have received the same amount of attention of recent years as dietetics and the study of nutrition. The literature is voluminous and it would neither be possible nor profitable to try to include everything that has been brought forward. There are many differences of opinion among authorities on many questions which can only be settled by future study and in many cases the views expressed are diametrically op posed. Much of our knowledge on nutrition is fragmentary and the exact value of many contributions cannot be estimated until further investigations have been made. Dietetics has always been a sub jcet much influenced by fads and fancies and much of the literature has little value in consequence. The authors have endeavored to give fully the various facts relat ing to the composition of foods, to indicate as far as possible in the space of one volume the scientific basis, when there is any for the various diets and. To give at the same time practical directions and diet lists which can be used without extensive training.

Book Observations Upon the Natural History of Epidemic Diarrhoea

Download or read book Observations Upon the Natural History of Epidemic Diarrhoea written by O. H. Peters and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Observations Upon the Natural History of Epidemic Diarrhoea The causative agencies from which springs the plentiful harvest of child mortality in large cities may be conceived as a felted mass of rootlets almost inextricably intertwined. Those of poverty, bad housing, bad feeding, and neglect, may be severally recognized, but the extent of their interrelations with actual respiratory and alimentary disease - those to which the greater part of the mortality is referred - can be traced only with difficulty. It is the object Of this work to aid ln the labour of cutting away the matrix and entangling fibres and to lay bare the hidden ramifications of at least one important causative agency - epidemic diarrhoea. This affection - if we accept provisionally the more novel and generally favoured conception. As to its nature - is revealed as something very like an ordinary infectious disease, and one which permeates all classes, while the excessive mortality it gathers round itself in urban centres must be regarded as something superadded, owing to the vicious circle it forms with those baneful conditions of slum life mentioned above. On the other hand, its peculiarly intimate association with the circum stances of domestic life, from the continual faecal pollution of the interior of the household by infants and others, tends to make it more so than other affections of the kind peculiarly a class disease, and an especial scourge of dirty neighbourhoods. Dirty towns may however be saved from excessive mortality by a high percentage of breast feeding. A notable point in the interesting comparison that can be drawn between diarrhoea and typhoid fever is that, in accordance with their peculiarly opposite age-incidence curves, the marked and habitual depositing of infectious excreta within the household in the former disease may make the question of water-closet versus conservancy pan a matter of far less importance than in the latter.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Culture, in fact, also plays an important role in science which is, per se, a multitude of different cultures. The book attempts to build a bridge across three cultures: mathematical statistics, quantum theory and chemometrical methods. Of course, these three domains should not be taken as equals in any sense. But the book holds the important claim that it is possible to develop a common language which, at least to a certain extent, can create direct links and build bridges. From this point of departure, the book will be of interest to the following three types of scientists OCo statisticians, quantum physicists and chemometricians OCo and in particular, statisticians and physicists who are interested in interdisciplinary research. Written at a level that is accessible to general readers, not only the academics, the book will appeal to graduate students and mathematically educated persons of all disciplines as well as philosophers, pure and applied mathematicians, and the general public.
