Download or read book Dietary Reference Intakes for Vitamin A Vitamin K Arsenic Boron Chromium Copper Iodine Iron Manganese Molybdenum Nickel Silicon Vanadium and Zinc written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-07-19 with total page 798 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the newest release in the authoritative series issued by the National Academy of Sciences on dietary reference intakes (DRIs). This series provides recommended intakes, such as Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs), for use in planning nutritionally adequate diets for individuals based on age and gender. In addition, a new reference intake, the Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL), has also been established to assist an individual in knowing how much is "too much" of a nutrient. Based on the Institute of Medicine's review of the scientific literature regarding dietary micronutrients, recommendations have been formulated regarding vitamins A and K, iron, iodine, chromium, copper, manganese, molybdenum, zinc, and other potentially beneficial trace elements such as boron to determine the roles, if any, they play in health. The book also: Reviews selected components of food that may influence the bioavailability of these compounds. Develops estimates of dietary intake of these compounds that are compatible with good nutrition throughout the life span and that may decrease risk of chronic disease where data indicate they play a role. Determines Tolerable Upper Intake levels for each nutrient reviewed where adequate scientific data are available in specific population subgroups. Identifies research needed to improve knowledge of the role of these micronutrients in human health. This book will be important to professionals in nutrition research and education.

Download or read book The Fat Soluble Vitamins written by H. DeLuca and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first demonstration of the existence of a vitamin and the full recognition of this fact are often attributed to the work of McCollum, who found that a sub stance in butterfat and cod-liver oil was necessary for growth and health of ani mals fed purified diets. It became obvious that an organic substance present in microconcentrations was vital to growth and reproduction of animals. Following the coining of the word vitamine by Funk, McCollum named this fat-soluble sub stance vitamin A. We can, therefore, state that vitamin A was certainly one of the first known vitamins, yet its function and the function of the other fat-soluble vitamins had remained largely unknown until recent years. However, there has been an explosion of investigation and new information in this field, which had remained quiescent for at least two or three decades. It is now obvious that the fat-soluble vitamins function quite differently from their water-soluble counter parts. We have learned that vitamin D functions by virtue of its being converted in the kidney to a hormone that functions to regulate calcium and phosphorus metabolism. This new endocrine system is in the process of being elucidated in detail, and in addition, the medical use of these hormonal forms of vitamin D in the treatment of a variety of metabolic bone diseases has excited the medical com munity.

This book was released on 2000-08-27 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the newest release in the authoritative series of quantitative estimates of nutrient intakes to be used for planning and assessing diets for healthy people. Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) is the newest framework for an expanded approach developed by U.S. and Canadian scientists. This book discusses in detail the role of vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium, and the carotenoids in human physiology and health. For each nutrient the committee presents what is known about how it functions in the human body, which factors may affect how it works, and how the nutrient may be related to chronic disease. Dietary Reference Intakes provides reference intakes, such as Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs), for use in planning nutritionally adequate diets for different groups based on age and gender, along with a new reference intake, the Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL), designed to assist an individual in knowing how much is "too much" of a nutrient.

Book excerpt: The stability of lipids and the effect of vitamin E deficiency on lipid stability in several rat tissues were examined. All normal rat tissues exhibited some evidence of lipid peroxidation ^ vivo and most of them showed a susceptibility to peroxidation ^ vitro . However, this susceptibility to peroxidation was much greater in tissues from rats kept on vitamin E deficient diets. In vitamin E deficient animals, the tissue response-in order of decreasing activity-with respect to lipid susceptibility to peroxidation, was adrenal, heart, lung and liver. With the excepticn of brain, the polyunsaturated fatty acid content of all tissues from vitamin E deficient rats was lower than that of the corresponding tissues from control animals. Brain exhibited relatively high levels of peroxidation products in vivo . In this tissue, neither the level nor the vulnerability to peroxidation of the polyunsaturated fatty acids appeared to be affected by the diet on which the experimental animal was maintained. At the sub-cellular level, the microsomal-supernatant fraction from normal brain and heart was found to have higher levels of lipid peroxidation products and greater susceptibility to peroxidation in vitro than did the mitochondria. Brain microsomal-supernatant fractions from normal and the vitamin E deficient rats did not show any significant differences either in the amount of peroxidation products, or in the polyunsaturated fatty acid content. Heart microsomal-supernatant fractions from vitamin E deficient rats, on the other hand, showed a much higher susceptibility to peroxidation in vitro , and a greater loss of polyunsaturated fatty acids on aerobic incubation than did corresponding preparations from normal animals. Feeding corn oil to the vitamin E deficient animals did not restore their tissue polyunsaturated fatty acids levels to normal. Studies relating to the mechanism of lipid peroxidation confirmed the findings that under physiological conditions one of the main end- products of lipid peroxidation (estimated by the thiobarbituric acid test) is malonaldehyde. Spectrophotometrie studies suggested the presence of another compound which formed a chromogen with thiobarbituric acid having an absorption peak at 450 mii. Subsequent studies indicated that this compound might be a precursor of malonaldehyde. Heavy metal ions-ferrous, ferric and vanadyl--and ascorbic acid accelerated lipid peroxidation ^ vitro in brain homogenates while cobaltic, cupric and manganous ions as well as certain antioxidants inhibited the reaction. Heating brain homogenates accelerated lipid peroxidation but did not block further lipid peroxidation. It is therefore suggested that this is a metal catalyzed, non-enzymic process in vitro and that the ^ vivo situation might be somewhat similar. Studies with lipid extracts from tissue homogenates suggested that the events occurring during aerobic incubation are concerned primarily with the breakdown of preformed peroxidic compounds rather than with further oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. It has been shown that although the thiobarbituric acid test is not quantitative, it is highly sensitive and by controlling rigorously the conditions with respect to both the tissue pretreatment and the test itself, it provides a reasonably good estimate of lipid peroxidation. In the newborn rat, brain tissue was shown to contain a high level of lipid peroxidation products. The level of these products decreased progressively with increasing age of the animal until it reached a relatively constant value at 10-15 days postparturn . The level of polyunsaturated fatty acids, on the other hand, increased from birth until about the 25th day of age. It appears that during maturation, some factor or process is gradually introduced into, or generated within, the brain, which retards the tendency of the polyunsaturated fatty acids to undergo oxidation m situ . The developing rat heart showed a behavior somewhat similar to that of brain with respect to the tendency of its polyunsaturated fatty acids to peroxidize. The microsomal-supernatant fractions from both these tissues exhibited a similar pattern during early development.
