Requirements and Recommended Dietary Intakes of Protein during Infancy

Dietary protein intakes and risk of ulcerative colitis

  Background: The incidence of ulcerative colitis (UC) is rising in populations with western-style diet, rich in fat and protein, and low in fruits and vegetables. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the association between dietary protein intakes and the risk of developing incident UC.   Methods : Sixty two cases of UC and 124 controls were studied using country-specific food frequency ...

Recommended dietary selenium intakes and selenium concentrations in nuts.

Recommended dietary intakes (RDI) of folate in humans.

Extensive evidence is presented that 3 micrograms folate/kg (6.8 nmol/kg) body weight daily will not only maintain adequate folate nutriture but also a substantial reserve body pool in normal persons. Recommendations appropriate to this extensive evidence are presented.

The dietary reference intake (DRI) process has been applied to nonessential nutrients, such as fiber, yet the majority of bioactive components await a recommended intake. Despite a plethora of new research over the past several years on the health effects of bioacti...
