Book Synopsis Caloric and Selected Nutrient Values for Persons 1-74 Years of Age by : National Center for Health Statistics (U.S.)
Download or read book Caloric and Selected Nutrient Values for Persons 1-74 Years of Age written by National Center for Health Statistics (U.S.) and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (HANES) is a comprehensive report on the dietary intake of the U.S. population, aged 1-74 years. It provides data to support studies on primary and secondary malnutrition and to identify situations outside the normal range. Data cover dietary intake, blood and urine analysis, clinical information, and anthropometric measurements. Variables are defined by race, age, income and sex; the dietary intake of these subgroups is compared to the standards for calories, protein, calcium, iron, vitamins A and C, thiamine and riboflavin. Some of the results show that iron intake is below standard for children 1-3 and females 10-54; blacks in all groups have calcium intake lower than whites; black males have lower intake than white males of all nutrients except thiamine; and caloric intake is below standard for most subgroups. Discrepancies seem to be present in assessing the adequacy of calories and iron. Physiological tests indicate different results, especially in light of the fact that obesity affects a sizeable portion of the population.
Book Synopsis Taxing Caloric Sweetened Beverages: Potential Effects on Beverage Consumption, Calorie Intake, and Obesity by : Travis A. Smith
Download or read book Taxing Caloric Sweetened Beverages: Potential Effects on Beverage Consumption, Calorie Intake, and Obesity written by Travis A. Smith and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The link between high U.S. obesity rates and the over-consumption of added sugars, largely from sodas and fruit drinks, has prompted calls for a tax on caloric sweetened beverages (CSB). Faced with a tax, consumers may reduce consumption of these CSB and substitute non-taxed beverages, such as bottled water, juice, and milk. A tax-induced 20% price increase on CSB could cause an average reduction of 3.8 pounds of body weight over a year, for adults and an average of 4.5 pounds over a year, for children. Given these reductions in calorie consumption, results show an estimated decline in adult overweight prevalence and obesity prevalence, as well as the child at-risk-for-overweight prevalence and the overweight prevalence.

Book Synopsis Proximate Composition and Caloric Content of Eight Lake Michigan Fishes by : Donald V. Rottiers
Download or read book Proximate Composition and Caloric Content of Eight Lake Michigan Fishes written by Donald V. Rottiers and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proximate composition (percentage lipid, water, fat-free dry material, ash) and caloric content of eight species of Lake Michigan fish were measured: lake trout, coho salmon, lake whitefish, bloater, alewife, rainbow smelt, deepwater sculpin, and slimy sculpin. Except for alewives, proximate composition and caloric content did not differ significantly between males and females. Although the caloric content of all species varied directly with lipid content and inversely with water content, an increase in lipid content did not always coincide with a proportional increasein caloric content when other components of fish composition were essentially unchanged. This observation suggests that the energy content of fish estimated from the proximate composition by using universal conversion factors may not necessarily be accurate.
Book Synopsis Eat for Life by : National Academy of Sciences
Download or read book Eat for Life written by National Academy of Sciences and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results from the National Research Council's (NRC) landmark study Diet and health are readily accessible to nonscientists in this friendly, easy-to-read guide. Readers will find the heart of the book in the first chapter: the Food and Nutrition Board's nine-point dietary plan to reduce the risk of diet-related chronic illness. The nine points are presented as sensible guidelines that are easy to follow on a daily basis, without complicated measuring or calculatingâ€"and without sacrificing favorite foods. Eat for Life gives practical recommendations on foods to eat and in a "how-to" section provides tips on shopping (how to read food labels), cooking (how to turn a high-fat dish into a low-fat one), and eating out (how to read a menu with nutrition in mind). The volume explains what protein, fiber, cholesterol, and fats are and what foods contain them, and tells readers how to reduce their risk of chronic disease by modifying the types of food they eat. Each chronic disease is clearly defined, with information provided on its prevalence in the United States. Written for everyone concerned about how they can influence their health by what they eat, Eat for Life offers potentially lifesaving information in an understandable and persuasive way.

Book Synopsis Why Calories Don't Count by : Giles Yeo
Download or read book Why Calories Don't Count written by Giles Yeo and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Cambridge obesity researcher upends everything we thought we knew about calories and calorie-counting. Calorie information is ubiquitous. On packaged food, restaurant menus, and online recipes we see authoritative numbers that tell us the calorie count of what we're about to consume. And we treat these numbers as gospel—counting, cutting, intermittently consuming and, if you believe some 'experts' out there, magically making them disappear. We all know, and governments advise, that losing weight is just a matter of burning more calories than we consume. But it's actually all wrong. In Why Calories Don't Count, Dr. Giles Yeo, an obesity researcher at Cambridge University, challenges the conventional model and demonstrates that all calories are not created equal. He addresses why popular diets succeed, at least in the short term, and why they ultimately fail, and what your environment has to do with your bodyweight. Once you understand that calories don't count, you can begin to make different decisions about how you choose to eat, learning what you really need to be counting instead. Practical, science-based and full of illuminating anecdotes, this is the most entertaining dietary advice you'll ever read.
Book Synopsis Why Calories Count by : Marion Nestle
Download or read book Why Calories Count written by Marion Nestle and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2012-04-18 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calories—too few or too many—are the source of health problems affecting billions of people in today’s globalized world. Although calories are essential to human health and survival, they cannot be seen, smelled, or tasted. They are also hard to understand. In Why Calories Count, Marion Nestle and Malden Nesheim explain in clear and accessible language what calories are and how they work, both biologically and politically. As they take readers through the issues that are fundamental to our understanding of diet and food, weight gain, loss, and obesity, Nestle and Nesheim sort through a great deal of the misinformation put forth by food manufacturers and diet program promoters. They elucidate the political stakes and show how federal and corporate policies have come together to create an "eat more" environment. Finally, having armed readers with the necessary information to interpret food labels, evaluate diet claims, and understand evidence as presented in popular media, the authors offer some candid advice: Get organized. Eat less. Eat better. Move more. Get political.
Book Synopsis Caloric Restriction: A Key to Understanding and Modulating Aging by : E.J. Masoro
Download or read book Caloric Restriction: A Key to Understanding and Modulating Aging written by E.J. Masoro and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2002-12-20 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, it has been known that when rats and mice are given a reduced amount of food, their life span is increased and they remain healthy and vigorous at advanced ages. What is the reason for this change in the usual pattern of aging? The evidence is overwhelming that the life extension results from a slowing of aging processes. And the factor responsible is the decrease in caloric intake. The obvious question: How does this factor work? A good question - and the reason that research on the anti-aging action of caloric restriction is today one of the most studied research areas in biological gerontology. For it is felt that if the biological mechanisms of the anti-aging action of caloric restriction can be uncovered, we would gain an understanding of the basic nature of aging processes, which would, in turn, yield possible interventions in human aging. This book aims to provide the growing number of researchers in this field (faculty, postdoctoral trainees, and graduate students) with a detailed knowledge of what is known about caloric restriction within the frame of gerontology, as well as insights on future of this field.
