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.

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.

Download or read book The Vitamin Content of Meat Classic Reprint written by Harry Aaron Waisman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Vitamin Content of Meat The investigations of foods in previous years were necessarily limited by inadequate methods, or by a lack of methods. As each new method became available all groups of foods were examined for that particular constituent. It is now necessary, in the light of our present knowledge to intensively investigate each group of our foods. While meat and meat products were studied mainly as sources of protein, phosphorus and iron, it is essential that we turn our attention to other substances furnished by animal tissues. A summary of the nutritive value of meat or any one of the group of foods is especially significant at this time when human requirements of these substances are being formulated by the Food and Nutrition Committee of the National Research Council acting as an agent of the government. It is also opportune to point out the importance of meat and meat products as sources of the accessory food factors and to review the recent advances in the knowledge of the distribution of the newer members of the vitamin B complex. While it is recognized that most mono graphs or books on the Vitamins are outdated the moment they are published, the authors believe that the data gathered together here can serve as a guide until newer methods of assay or analysis are able to supplement the existing values. The knowledge of the vitamins in the water soluble B group has accumulated so rapidly within the past few years that little has been done on the distribution of these substances in many of our natural foodstuffs. It has now reached the stage at which it is necessary to consolidate the advances made in the chemical work by making intensive investigations on the occurrence of these food factors. The isolation and synthesis of thiamin, riboflavin, pyridoxine and pantothenic acid has all taken place within the last six or seven years. The discovery that nicotinic acid is the pellagra preventing vitamin, and the importance of thiamin, pyridoxine, riboflavin, and pantothenic acid in the field of nutrition have also been the results of the most recent years. Choline, inositol, para-aminobenzoic acid, and other compounds also appear to be of physiological significance. The part that meat plays in supplying the well established factors as well as the more recently differentiated ones will become clear in the following chapters.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chemistry of Foods and Nutrition: The Composition of Our Bodies and Our Food When we know what are the kinds and amounts of nutritive substances our bodies need and our food-materials contain, then and not till then shall we be able to adjust our diet to the demands of health and purse. The ways in which the body makes use of its food are found out.by experiments made with living animals, with pigeons, geese, rab bits, dogs, sheep, goats, oxen, horses and many others, including men. The experimenting of the last few years, particularly, has been very ex tensive, and has brought extremely important results. To give a brief account of some of these researches and their principal results as applied to the nutrition of man is the object of this article.

The chemist tells us that it is the oxygen. This gas is present in the-air to the extent of about twenty per cent. If a sam ple of air be taken and the oxygen removed from; it, your paper will not burn; nor will anything else that ordinarily burns in the air. If, on the other hand, you take your burning paper or lighted candle, and thrust it into a jar containing the removed oxygen, the paper or candle will burn with a brilliancy that dazzles the eye.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Milk: The Indispensable Food for Children In view of the established importance of milk and the recent gains in scientific knowledge concerning it, a revision of the Children's Bureau bulletin on milk published in 19182 was felt to be needed. The present bulletin is a revision of the material in that publica tion in the light of later research by many authorities. As a result of studies of the food requirements of infants, of older children, and of expectant and nursing mothers the value of milk is now much better understood. For example considerable advance has been made in the study of vitamins in the last seven years. In the present bulletin the vitamins of milk have been stressed; and a table has been compiled from several sources, both in the United States and in Great Britain, showing the vitamin content of different forms of milk. The relative merits of the various forms of canned milk and of the processes used are discussed with special attention to the retention of vitamins and minerals. Improvements in methods of canning are noted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vitamin and Mineral Values of Vegetables as Served in an Army Mess In estimating the nutritional adequacy of the Army diet, computations have generally been based on the composition of the raw foods, although it is known that considerable invisible losses occur during food preparation. The amount of such losses depends on the method of preparation used. The Office of the Quartermaster General recommends a standard set of culinary procedures for the Army; however, the actual practices are quite varied. Also, there is wide natural variation in the foods themselves. Conse quently little information exists on the nutritive value of foods as actually served under Army camp conditions. This investigation was undertaken to determine the vitamin and mineral values in several commonly used vegetables served in a typical Army mess, and to determine also, insofar as possible, the changes occurring hithe content of these nutrients during preparation.
