Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eating enough food to meet nutritional needs and maintain good health and good performance in all aspects of lifeâ€"both at home and on the jobâ€"is important for all of us throughout our lives. For military personnel, however, this presents a special challenge. Although soldiers typically have a number of options for eating when stationed on a base, in the field during missions their meals come in the form of operational rations. Unfortunately, military personnel in training and field operations often do not eat their rations in the amounts needed to ensure that they meet their energy and nutrient requirements and consequently lose weight and potentially risk loss of effectiveness both in physical and cognitive performance. This book contains 20 chapters by military and nonmilitary scientists from such fields as food science, food marketing and engineering, nutrition, physiology, psychology, and various medical specialties. Although described within a context of military tasks, the committee's conclusions and recommendations have wide-reaching implications for people who find that job-related stress changes their eating habits.

Download or read book Army Field Feeding and Class I Operations (ATTP 4-41) written by Department of the Army and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-11-02 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food is fuel for the Soldier. Providing nutritious and high quality subsistence to Soldiers is paramount to the Army's success and mission accomplishment on the battlefield. Field feeding directly affects the morale, combat effectiveness, and health of the combat Soldier. The objective of the Army Field Feeding System (AFFS) is to provide Soldiers the right meal at the right place at the right time. Achieving this objective is an ever-evolving challenge because of modular force packaging that supports brigade-centric operations. The Army tailors modular force components based on the scope of the Army or joint mission. The modular Army force is faster, more agile and adaptive, multifunctional, lethal and capable of conducting full spectrum operations. Class I operations and field feeding systems must continue to evolve to ensure Army food service operations continue to serve as a ready and relevant force component. This Army tactics, techniques, and procedures (ATTP) provides field food service doctrine through methods, techniques, and procedures for providing subsistence to Soldiers during the full spectrum of military operations. Commanders, logistic staff planners, food advisors, Class I managers, food operations managers, subsistence supply handlers, and food service specialists are the intended audience for this manual. Because no two missions are the same, personnel must adapt the doctrine in this manual to fit the needs of the given situation and mission. Since this manual was last published, the Army has conducted many combat and stability operations that have greatly affected the way Class I is provided to Soldiers. This manual incorporates these lessons learned. Where appropriate, this manual references other food service doctrinal publications, such as Army Regulation (AR) 30-22, Department of the Army (DA) Pamphlet 30-22, and field manual (FM) 10-23-2. Army Food Program policy and operational procedures are also contained in these publications and should be used in conjunction with this manual to plan and conduct field food service and Class I operations during field training exercises, operational deployments, and contingency operations. Part one of this manual provides an in-depth overview of the AFFS, modular subsistence sustainment, personnel responsibilities, and Class I supply planning considerations. Part two of this manual discusses the Army family of rations and field kitchen equipment. Both areas continue to evolve based on current and future military operations. Part three of this manual provides guidance and operational procedures for field kitchen operations, Class I supply operations, and contingency operations (CONOPS). In the appendixes are several checklists that provide additional Class I supply and food service training, planning, and maintenance guidance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans eat more processed foods than anyone else in the world. We also spend more on military research. These two seemingly unrelated facts are inextricably linked. If you ever wondered how ready-to-eat foods infiltrated your kitchen, you’ll love this entertaining romp through the secret military history of practically everything you buy at the supermarket. In a nondescript Boston suburb, in a handful of low buildings buffered by trees and a lake, a group of men and women spend their days researching, testing, tasting, and producing the foods that form the bedrock of the American diet. If you stumbled into the facility, you might think the technicians dressed in lab coats and the shiny kitchen equipment belonged to one of the giant food conglomerates responsible for your favorite brand of frozen pizza or microwavable breakfast burritos. So you’d be surprised to learn that you’ve just entered the U.S. Army Natick Soldier Systems Center, ground zero for the processed food industry. Ever since Napoleon, armies have sought better ways to preserve, store, and transport food for battle. As part of this quest, although most people don’t realize it, the U.S. military spearheaded the invention of energy bars, restructured meat, extended-life bread, instant coffee, and much more. But there’s been an insidious mission creep: because the military enlisted industry—huge corporations such as ADM, ConAgra, General Mills, Hershey, Hormel, Mars, Nabisco, Reynolds, Smithfield, Swift, Tyson, and Unilever—to help develop and manufacture food for soldiers on the front line, over the years combat rations, or the key technologies used in engineering them, have ended up dominating grocery store shelves and refrigerator cases. TV dinners, the cheese powder in snack foods, cling wrap . . . The list is almost endless. Now food writer Anastacia Marx de Salcedo scrutinizes the world of processed food and its long relationship with the military—unveiling the twists, turns, successes, failures, and products that have found their way from the armed forces’ and contractors’ laboratories into our kitchens. In developing these rations, the army was looking for some of the very same qualities as we do in our hectic, fast-paced twenty-first-century lives: portability, ease of preparation, extended shelf life at room temperature, affordability, and appeal to even the least adventurous eaters. In other words, the military has us chowing down like special ops. What is the effect of such a diet, eaten—as it is by soldiers and most consumers—day in and day out, year after year? We don’t really know. We’re the guinea pigs in a giant public health experiment, one in which science and technology, at the beck and call of the military, have taken over our kitchens.

Download or read book Nutrient Composition of Rations for Short-Term, High-Intensity Combat Operations written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-01-09 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recognizing the importance of good nutrition for physical and mental status, the Department of Defense asked the Institute of Medicine to guide the design of the nutritional composition of a ration for soldiers on short-term, high-stress missions. Nutrient Composition of Rations for Short-Term, High-Intensity Combat Operations considers military performance, health concerns, food intake, energy expenditure, physical exercise, and food technology issues. The success of military operations depends to a large extent on the physical and mental status of the individuals involved. Appropriate nutrition during assault missions is a continuous challenge mainly due to diminished appetites of individuals under stress. Many less controllable and unpredictable factors, such as individual preferences and climate, come into play to reduce appetite. In fact, soldiers usually consume about half of the calories needed, leaving them in a state called "negative energy balance." The consequences of being in negative energy balance while under these circumstances range from weight loss to fatigue to mental impairments. An individual's physiological and nutritional status can markedly affect one's ability to maximize performance during missions and may compromise effectiveness. With the number of these missions increasing, the optimization of rations has become a high priority.

Download or read book Emerging Technologies for Nutrition Research written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1997-09-03 with total page 729 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The latest of a series of publications based on workshops sponsored by the Committee on Military Nutrition Research, this book's focus on emerging technologies for nutrition research arose from a concern among scientists at the U.S. Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine that traditional nutrition research, using standard techniques, centered more on complex issues of the maintenance or enhancement of performance, and might not be sufficiently substantive either to measure changes in performance or to predict the effects on performance of stresses soldiers commonly experience in operational environments. The committee's task was to identify and evaluate new technologies to determine whether they could help resolve important issues in military nutrition research. The book contains the committee's summary and recommendations as well as individually authored chapters based on presentations at a 1995 workshop. Other chapters cover techniques of body composition assessment, tracer techniques for the study of metabolism, ambulatory techniques for the determination of energy expenditure, molecular and cellular approaches to nutrition, the assessment of immune function, and functional and behavioral measures of nutritional status.
