Book Description
Abstract: A report of a 1981 workshop by the International Union of Nutritional Sciences Committee on Protein-Energy Requirements reviews the current state of world research findings on protein-energy requirements. The 35 technical papers discuss research studies conducted on a variety of sub-populations and ethnic groups. The papers are organized under 6 principal categories: (1) general methodological studies for assessing human protein-energy requirements; (2) studies assessing adult protein requirements using (a) the standard nitrogen balance protocol, (b) long-term studies, and (c) large sample populations; (3) energy expenditure studies; (4) studies on protein-energy interactions; (5) nitrogen balance studies in children; and (6) ancillary studies concerning miscellaneous aspects that influence protein-energy requirements. Two expert reports are appended: (1) a 1977 FAO/WHO report on energy intake and protein requirements, and (2) a 1980 report reviewing collaborative research on protein requirements and energy intake.

Book Description
Abstract: The determination of protein and energy needs in developing nations is complicated by insufficient data, degree of social stress, presence of disease and infection, and differences of individuals and population. An attempt is being made, however, to define the necessary allowances for recovery from infection or mild malnutrition and for the maintenance of health. The crucial questions revolve around relative requirements under prevailing conditions, whether there are indeed different requirements for different populations, and whether those requirements can be determined in reference to healthy, will-fed populations. These questions are addressed through information on known protein and energy requirements for health maintenance and tissue repletion, and nutritional consequences of infections. Recommendations are outlined for research priorities.

Dietary Reference Intakes for Energy, Carbohydrate, Fiber, Fat, Fatty Acids, Cholesterol, Protein, and Amino Acids

Pages : 1358
Book Description
Responding to the expansion of scientific knowledge about the roles of nutrients in human health, the Institute of Medicine has developed a new approach to establish Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) and other nutrient reference values. The new title for these values Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs), is the inclusive name being given to this new approach. These are quantitative estimates of nutrient intakes applicable to healthy individuals in the United States and Canada. This new book is part of a series of books presenting dietary reference values for the intakes of nutrients. It establishes recommendations for energy, carbohydrate, fiber, fat, fatty acids, cholesterol, protein, and amino acids. This book presents new approaches and findings which include the following: The establishment of Estimated Energy Requirements at four levels of energy expenditure Recommendations for levels of physical activity to decrease risk of chronic disease The establishment of RDAs for dietary carbohydrate and protein The development of the definitions of Dietary Fiber, Functional Fiber, and Total Fiber The establishment of Adequate Intakes (AI) for Total Fiber The establishment of AIs for linolenic and a-linolenic acids Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Ranges as a percent of energy intake for fat, carbohydrate, linolenic and a-linolenic acids, and protein Research recommendations for information needed to advance understanding of macronutrient requirements and the adverse effects associated with intake of higher amounts Also detailed are recommendations for both physical activity and energy expenditure to maintain health and decrease the risk of disease.
