Abstract

In view of the inadequate supply of milk and other protein-rich foods of animal origin in many developing countries, investigations have been carried out by several workers on the use of protein-rich foods of vegetable origin e.g. oilseed meals and legumes in the treatment and prevention of protein malnutrition in children. The proteins of vegetable origin are, in general, deficient in one or more of the essential amino acids and hence possess a lower nutritive value than animal proteins. It is known, however, that deficiencies of amino acids in individual vegetable proteins could be made up by the use of blends of proteins in suitable proportions. Recent investigations have shown that blends of isolated proteins from peanut and soya bean along with skim milk or casein, possess a high protein efficiency ratio and are highly effective in the treatment of protein malnutrition.

Abstract

The diets consumed by the low-income groups of the population in India and several Asian countries, Africa and Latin America, consist predominantly of cereals, ischolar_mains and tubers and contain negligible amounts of protective and protein-rich foods. Such diets are deficient in protein, certain vitamins and minerals. Consequently there is wide spread incidence of protein malnutrition and vitamin deficiency diseases particularly among children.

Abstract

The diets consumed by a great majority of the population in many of the developing countries in the world contain negligible amounts of protein-rich and protective foods. In view of the shortage in the production of milk and other protective foods in these countries, studies have been carried out by several workers on the use of protein-rich foods of vegetable origin as effective supplements to the diets of the vulnerable groups of the population. In the earlier papers, the results of studies on the preparation and nutritive value of a protein food based on a 1:1 blend of full - fat soya flour and edible groundnut flour and fortified with 1% each of 1-lysine and dl-methionine and adequate amounts of calcium salts, vitamins A and D, thiamine and riboflavin, have been reported.

Abstract

The failure of raw soya bean meal proteins to support good growth in experimental animals has been known since the classic studies of Osborne and Mendel. The growth depression resulting from inclusion of raw soya bean in the diet has been attributed to the presence of trypsin and growth inhibitors.

Abstract

In earlier publications from this laboratory, Joseph et al and Kurien et al. have reported that undernourished children subsisting on poor Indian diets based mainly on rice, jowar (Sorghum vulgare), ragi (Eleucine coracana) and bajra (Hennisetum typhoideum) maintained on an average, slight positive nitrogen and calcium balances, which were inadequate for promoting optimum growth of the children. Supplementation of a poor rice diet daily with 2 oz of a processed protein food based on a 2 : 1 : 1 olend of groundnut flour, Bengalgram flour and low-fat coconut meal or with 50g of fortified groundnut flour, made up tne deficiencies in the diet, and brought about a significant increase in the growth and nutritional status and also in the retention of nitrogen, calcium and phosphorus in children.

Abstract

The diets consumed by a majority of the population in India are mainly based on cereals like rice and wheat or millets like ragi (Eleucine coracana), jowar (Sorghum vulgare) or maize (Zea mays) and contain only small quantities of pulses, vegetables and fat and negligible amounts of milk and other animal foods. Such diets are deficient in vitamin A, riboflavin, calcium and proteins and do not promote optimum growth in children. The possibilities of using protein-rich foods of plant origin for the preparation of processed protein foods which can be used as effective supplements to the poor diets based on cereals or millets have received the attention of a number of workers.

Abstract

In previous papers of this series'' it has been reported that supplementation of the diet of undernourished school children (girls aged 9-10 years) daily with 40g of protein food based on a 1:1 blend of groundnut flour and full-fat soya flour fortified with l-lysine, dl-methionine and adequate amounts of calcium salts and vitamins A and D, thiamine and riboflavin brought about a significant improvement in their growth as well as an increase in their retention of N, Ca and P. The present paper describes the results of studies on the digestibility coefficient and biological value of the protein and net protein utilization of rice and rice-protein food diets given to children.

Abstract

There is increasing recognition among nutrition workers that the diets consumed by the majority of low-income groups of the population in several tropical and subtropical countries are deficient in various important dietary essentials, such as proteins, minerals and vitamins. Acute shortage of animal protein coupled with inadequate intakes of total protein are common in these countries.

Abstract

Until recently, the importance of fat in the nutrition of animals and man was not adequately recognised. The essential nature of fat in the nutrition of the albino rat was first discovered in 1929 by Burr and Burr who observed that rats fed on a fat-free diet for 70 to 90 days did not grow and developed a deficiency syndrome characterised by scaliness of the skin and necrosis of the tail.

Abstract

The diets consumed by weaned infants and pre-school children in India and other developing countries consist predominantly of starchy foods and lack in protein rich and protective foods such as milk, meat, fish, eggs etc. Protein malnutrition is widely prevalent in the above age group. During recent years a considerable amount of work has been carried out on the preparation of processed protein foods suitable for supplementing the diets of weaned infants and pre-school children in the developing countries.
