Book excerpt: Excerpt from Butter as a Source of Vitamin an in the Diet of the People of the United States: By the Technical Committee in Charge of the Nation-Wide Survey A Nation-wide study to determine the seasonal variation in the vitamin A potency of milk and butter produced and marketed in different regions of the United States was begun in the spring of 1943 by the United States Department of Agriculture and 21 cooperating State agricultural experiment stations to answer certain questions raised by the Committee on Food and Nutrition of the National Research Council. The Committee (now the Food and Nutrition Board) wanted to be able to estimate how much vitamin A the people of the United States were actually getting from the butter they were consuming. This publication brings together the results obtained up to and including August 1945, as reported by each of the cooperating States to the Technical Committee that was in charge of the study. The data bear mainly on three questions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Vital Factors of Foods Vitamins and Nutrition Classic Reprint written by Carleton Ellis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vital Factors of Foods, Vitamins and Nutrition Investigations made during the past decade have brought forth a discovery of the utmost importance to the well-being of mankind. And the discovery is this: In the foods we eat or should eat there are present very small amounts of certain life-giving and disease preventing bodies, the consumption of which is essential to growth and good health. Such bodies are called vitamins. Before the day when the import of vitamins came to be recognized we were well satisfied to believe that an adequate supply of protein, fat, carbohydrate, mineral salts and water met our food requirements fully. Food charts were widely disseminated which made it appar ent that the heat units of food, the calories available, were the essential factors in the control of a diet or ration. Women's clubs and other organizations were addressed on this score so often and emphatically that many a conscientious housewife kept scales in the kitchen to weigh protein, fat and carbohydrates and thereby com pute the daily distribution and consumption of calories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vitamins in Food Materials As compared with its ability to store vitamin A, the body has only limited capacity for storage of vitamin F; therefore the diet should contain an abundance of it at all times. Probably the special need of the vitamin B complex for lactation is chiefly for vitamin F, and for this reason the diet of lactating women should be especially rich in vitamin F. As a further safeguard it is becoming customary to give babies a supplementary source of this vitamin, such as extracts of wheat or corn germ, yeast, and rice polishings.

Download or read book Vitamins and the Choice of Food Classic Reprint written by Violet G. Plimmer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-10 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vitamins and the Choice of Food AT the present time so much interest is taken in vitamins that a short account embodying the evidence in support of the need of these substances in nutrition will, it is felt, be of some service, and may in particular assist those who are responsible for the feeding of infants or for the selection of food in schools and other large communities. The subject of accessory food-factors (vitamins) has a special significance, as it marks the entry of biochemical research into the problems of health and growth. Chemical formulae as yet play no part. The small quantity in which these factors occur in the food-stuffs makes the isolation of the chemically pure substances from the com plex chemical mixture, as it exists in nature, a very difficult problem. While the chemical nature of these substances is unknown, for the purposes of nutrition and health the investigator must carry on his work with the undetermined quantity which is present in a given food. It is known that some food-stuffs contain, and others do not contain, vitamins; and that faults in the diet are the cause of several diseases and of much ill-health. Three lectures on vitamins were given by Dr. R. H. A. Plimmer at the Marischal College, Aberdeen, in the summer of 1920. Further lectures were given to suit the needs of special audiences, and numerous requests were received for a written account suitable for the general reader. This short summary has therefore been written in the hope that it may fulfil this purpose. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: “Edifying from every point of view--historical, cultural, and culinary.” —David Tanis, author of A Platter of Figs and Other Recipes It’s a culinary catalyst, an agent of change, a gastronomic rock star. Ubiquitous in the world’s most fabulous cuisines, butter is boss. Here, it finally gets its due. After traveling across three continents to stalk the modern story of butter, award-winning food writer and former pastry chef Elaine Khosrova serves up a story as rich, textured, and culturally relevant as butter itself. From its humble agrarian origins to its present-day artisanal glory, butter has a fascinating story to tell, and Khosrova is the perfect person to tell it. With tales about the ancient butter bogs of Ireland, the pleasure dairies of France, and the sacred butter sculptures of Tibet, Khosrova details butter’s role in history, politics, economics, nutrition, and even spirituality and art. Readers will also find the essential collection of core butter recipes, including beurre manié, croissants, pâte brisée, and the only buttercream frosting anyone will ever need, as well as practical how-tos for making various types of butter at home--or shopping for the best. “A fascinating, tasty read . . . And what a bonus to have a collection of essential classic butter recipes included.” —David Tanis, author of A Platter of Figs and Other Recipes “Following the path blazed by Margaret Visser in Much Depends on Dinner, Elaine Khosrova makes much of butter and the ruminants whose milk man churns. You will revel in dairy physics. And you may never eat margarine again.” —John T. Edge, author of The Potlikker Papers: A Food History of the Modern South “Butter proves that close study can reveal rich history, lore, and practical information. All that and charm too.” —Mimi Sheraton, author of 1,000 Foods to Eat Before You Die “Irresistible and fascinating . . . This is one of those definitive books on a subject that every cook should have.” —Elisabeth Prueitt, co-owner of Tartine Bakery “The history of one of the most delectable ingredients throughout our many cultures and geography over time is wonderfully churned and emulsified in Khosrova’s Butter . . . Delightful storytelling.” —Elizabeth Falkner, author of Demolition Desserts: Recipes from Citizen Cake

This book was released on 2018-02-18 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Critical Investigation and an Application of the Rat Growth Method for the Study of Vitamin B The casein was prepared from the commercial product by purification in the manner suggested by Sherman and Husa (unpublished experiments) as follows: One liter of 60 per cent. Alcohol (by weight) was added to 200 grams Of casein and the mixture stirred for one-half hour by means Of a mechanical stirrer and was then allowed to stand for five and one-half hours. After this period the casein was filtered Off through a Buchner funnel and washed once in the funnel with 500 cc. Of 60, per cent. Alcohol. The casein was again treated with one liter of 60 per cent. Alcohol as before but this time was left to stand for eighteen hours. It was filtered Off and washed as before with 500 cc. Of 60 per cent. Alcohol and finally with 500 cc. Of 90 per cent. Alcohol. The last washing merely facilitates the drying. The casein was removed from the filter and spread out in a thin layer and allowed to become air-dry. Throughout this paper the strength Of alcohol used is always given in per cent. By weight. The butter was melted at a temperature not exceeding 45 C. All the curd, salt and water settles to the bottom of the vessel and may be easily removed when the butter solidi fies. The butter fat is again melted at a low temperature, and filtered through filter paper using a hot water funnel.

Download or read book The Vitamin A Story written by R.D. Semba and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2013-07-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how vitamin A deficiency – before the vitamin was known to scientists – affected millions of people throughout history. It is a story of sailors and soldiers, penniless mothers, orphaned infants, and young children left susceptible to blindness and fatal infections. We also glimpse the fortunate ones who, with ample vitamin A-rich food, escaped this elusive stalker. Why were people going blind and dying? To unravel this puzzle, scientists around the world competed over the course of a century. Their persistent efforts led to the identification of vitamin A and its essential role in health. As a primary focus of today’s international public health efforts, vitamin A has saved hundreds of thousands of lives. But, we discover, they could save many more were it not for obstacles erected by political and ideological zealots who lack a historical perspective of the problem. Although exhaustively researched and documented, this book is written for intellectually curious lay readers as well as for specialists. Public health professionals, nutritionists, and historians of science and medicine have much to learn from this book about the cultural and scientific origins of their disciplines. Likewise, readers interested in military and cultural history will learn about the interaction of health, society, science, and politics. The author’s presentation of vitamin A deficiency is likely to become a classic case study of health disparities in the past as well as the present.
