These nutrients (total and saturated fat, cholesterol, sodium, calcium, fiber, folate, iron, vitamins C and D, and choline) were chosen based on their importance to an overall healthy diet and increased nutrient needs during pregnancy [33–37]. Participants also provided information regarding ...
Parenterally, the use of centrally placed lines allow for concentrated nutrients to meet the infant's needs during fluid restriction. With severe fluid restriction, however, the goal nutrient concentrations may not be achievable, for the nutrient base solutions are available at finite concentrations. ...

This paper discusses the desirability of expressing the nutrient requirements of man and animals relative to their associated energy intake, and proposes a format for expressing a dietary standard for humans. Caloric needs are known to vary with size, activity, and productive performance. There is ...
In Hungary, DHA levels in breast milk are spectacularly lower than median DHA levels usually reported in the literature; therefore, more awareness of the importance of DHA intake during pregnancy should be created. Conclusion: There is a need to address potentially critical nutrients for toddlers ...
A child requires food not only for maintenance of body tissues but also for growth. The calorie and nutrient intakes vary widely from child to child and the daily fluctuations in the same child are considerable. Hence, it is easier to establish the quality of foods needed than to estimate th...
