Excerpt: ...of isodynamic amounts of different materials; the intermediate experiment is not reported here. The usual preliminary period of days duration began with breakfast February 10, 1900, and ended with supper February 13. The subject entered the calorimeter on the evening of February 13 and experiment No. 26 began at 7 a. m. February 14, continuing 3 days. Experiment No. 28 began at 7 a. m. February 20, and continued until 7 a. m. February 23. Diet.--The diet consisted of a basal ration furnishing about 99 grams of protein and 1,982 calories of energy per day. To this, in experiment No. 26, was added 63.5 grams of butter, furnishing 1 gram of protein and 508 calories of energy. In experiment No. 28 the material added consisted of 128 grams of cane sugar, furnishing 507 calories of energy per day. The protein and energy were thus practically the same in both of the experiments. The kinds and quantities of food in the basal ration as served for each meal, the character and amount of the supplemental ration in the different experiments, and the quantity of drink consumed at different periods of the day in each experiment were as follows: Table 96.--Diet in metabolism experiments Xos. 6 and 28.

Download or read book The Fast Metabolism Diet written by Haylie Pomroy and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2013-04-09 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Kick your metabolism into gear with a diet program that uses the fat-burning power of food to help you lose up to 20 pounds in 28 days “This is not a fad diet. It’s a medically proven method of food as medicine to fight obesity, cure chronic illness, and heal a broken metabolism.”—Jacqueline Fields, M.D. Hailed as “the metabolism whisperer,” Haylie Pomroy reminds us that food is not the enemy but medicine needed to rev up your sluggish, broken-down metabolism to turn your body into a fat-burning furnace. On this plan you’re going to eat a lot—three full meals and at least two snacks a day—and you’re still going to lose weight. What you’re not going to do is count a single calorie or fat gram, or go carb-free or ban entire food groups. Instead, you’re going to rotate what you eat throughout each week according to a simple and proven plan carefully designed to induce precise physiological changes that will set your metabolism on fire. In four weeks you’ll not only see the weight fall off, but don’t be surprised to find your cholesterol drop, blood sugar stabilize, energy increase, sleep improve, and stress melt away as well. Complete with four weeks of meal plans and more than fifty recipes—including vegetarian, organic, and gluten-free options—this is the silver bullet for the chronic dieter who has tried every fad diet and failed, for the first-time dieter attempting to boost their metabolism, and for anyone who wants to naturally and safely eat his or her way to a skinnier, healthier self.
Download or read book Metabolic Living written by Harris Solomon and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The popular narrative of "globesity" posits that the adoption of Western diets is intensifying obesity and diabetes in the Global South and that disordered metabolisms are the embodied consequence of globalization and excess. In Metabolic Living Harris Solomon recasts these narratives by examining how people in Mumbai, India, experience the porosity between food, fat, the body, and the city. Solomon contends that obesity and diabetes pose a problem of absorption between body and environment. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork carried out in Mumbai's home kitchens, metabolic disorder clinics, food companies, markets, and social services, he details the absorption of everything from snack foods and mangoes to insulin, stress, and pollutants. As these substances pass between the city and the body and blur the two domains, the onset and treatment of metabolic illness raise questions about who has the power to decide what goes into bodies and when food means life. Evoking metabolism as a condition of contemporary urban life and a vital political analytic, Solomon illuminates the lived predicaments of obesity and diabetes, and reorients our understanding of chronic illness in India and beyond.
