This increases energy density but disturbs the protein : energy ratio, and increases risks of microbial contamination and errors in feed preparation. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of a nutrient-dense formula (NDF) with an energy-supplemented formula (ESF) in infants with ...
Prices of 14 nutrient-dense and energy-dense food items were collected at full-service grocery stores in 2009. Using econometric models that included both supply and demand factors, analysis was conducted to determine whether income and demographic variables had differential impacts on the pricing of...
but at night they consume oxygen for respiration. Dense populations of algae in the upper and mid-depths of the water column can consume most of the DO. Low-oxygen stress in the system also occurs because of increased decomposition. As algal blooms senescence and die, and plants and animals...
During the past 20 years, there have been great developments in the scientific understanding of the role of nutrition in health and physical performance. Studies show that adequate dietary carbohydrate should be ingested (55-60% of total energy intake) so that training intensity can be maintained....
This was partly related to maintenance of energy intake.In conclusion, application of physiologically dosed micronutrient enriched foods aimed at improving the density of the frail elderly diet, may have beneficial effects on the nutritional and health status and could be part of a feasible public ...
Golaleh Asghari1, Emad Yuzbashian1, Parvin Mirmiran2, Zahra Bahadoran1 and Fereidoun Azizi3 Background: Our aim was to investigate the relationship between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and energy-dense nutri- ent-poor solid snacks intakes during 3.6 y of follow-up among children and...
For example, the high growth rate and laying performance of modern broiler and layer strains can only be ensured with properly formulated rations that are protein-, energy- and mineral-dense and are tailored to meet the age-specific nutrient demands to avoid large nutrient losses and environmental...

On the contrary, economically disadvantaged people report diets that are nutrient-poor and energy-dense. They are less likely to have food-purchasing habits that conform to public health recommendations. These dietary differences are often accompanied by higher rates of obesity ...
stream-resident fish that capitalize on energy-dense salmon eggs substantially enhance their exposure to the PCBs and DDTs that efficiently partition to high-fat tissues while reducing their exposure to Hg for which salmon egg concentrations are low relative to other dietary sources46,47,48. This ...
