The Journal of Nutrition Nutrient Requirements and Optimal Nutrition Lysine Requirements of Moderately Undernourished School-Aged Indian Children Are Reduced by Treatment for Intestinal Parasites as Measured by the Indicator Amino Acid Oxidation Technique
Background: Lysine requirements of well-nourished children from developing regions have been found to be similar to those of children from developed regions (33.5 mg kg d). However, intestinal parasites have been shown to increase lysine requirements in undernourished adults, and it is not known if a similar phenomenon occurs in undernourished children from poor and unsanitary environments. Obj...
متن کاملDietary lysine requirement of sows increases in late gestation.
Current AA recommendations for sows are to provide a fixed amount of AA intake throughout gestation; however, the demand for nutrients changes from maternal lean tissue in early gestation (EG) to fetal and mammary growth in late gestation (LG). The objective of this study was to determine the Lys requirement in EG (d 24 to 45) and LG (d 86 to 110) using the indicator AA oxidation method with si...
متن کاملDietary fructooligosaccharides increase intestinal permeability in rats.
We showed previously that fructooligosaccharides (FOS) decrease the resistance to salmonella infection in rats. However, the mechanism responsible for this effect is unclear. Therefore, we examined whether dietary FOS affects intestinal permeability before and after infection with Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis. Male Wistar rats were fed restricted quantities of a purified diet that mi...
متن کاملIntestinal dipeptide hydrolase activities in undernourished children.
Kumar, V., Ghai, 0. P., and Chase, H. P. (1971). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 46, 801. Intestinal dipeptide hydrolase activities in undernourished children. Intestinal dipeptide hydrolase enzymes cleave dipeptides into amino acids. In 8 undernourished children with diarrhoea, mean intestinal mucosal glyclyl-proline hydrolase activity was reduced 40%, valyl-proline hydrolase activity 38%, a...
متن کاملLysine requirement of healthy, school-aged Indian children determined by the indicator amino acid oxidation technique.
We recently reported the lysine requirement of school-aged children living in Canada consuming a mixed diet to be 35 mg.kg(-1).d(-1). Because the majority of children in the world live on cereal-based diets in developing countries, we measured the daily lysine requirement in healthy children living in India and consuming a mostly cereal-based diet. Our objective in this study was to determine t...
