The importance of micronutrients in health and diseases has been receiving increasingly greater attention for the past three decades. Iodine Deficiency Disorders (IDD) and Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) are the two major micronutrient deficiency diseases with adverse consequences world wide especially for women of reproductive age and young children.- Status of Copper, Zinc and Manganese in Antenatal and Postnatal Women

Antenatal is a term applied to conditions occurring before birth and is used with respect to both mother and child. The antenatal period is a preparatory one, physically in terms of foetal growth and maternal adaptations. The postnatal period is the six-week interval between the birth of the newborn and the return of the reproductive organs to their normal nonpregnant state. The period is sometimes referred to as puerperium or fourth trimester of pregnancy.- Physicochemical Characteristics and Acceptability of Refined Palmoil and Soyabean Oil Blends

The demand and regional preference for individual oil causes imbalance in the demand and supply of various vegetable oils. Blending of oils provides an answer to the problem and simultaneously put forward an excellent scope for increasing the thermal stability of oils. Palm oil occupies an intermediate position between the saturated animal fats and highly unsaturated vegetable oils but perhaps tending more towards the saturated fats. It has moderate levels of polyunsaturated fattyacids (PUFA) linoleic (10 per cent) and high levels of palmitic acid (48 per cent) and oleic acid (38 per cent). Soyabean oil is rich in polyunsaturated fattyacids (PUFA) and low in saturated fattyacid. It has 14 per cent saturated fattyacid (SFA) and 24 per cent mono unsaturated fattyacids (MUFA). The presence of high levels of PUFA makes it nutritionally attractive.- Quality and Storage Stability of Crude Palm Oil and its Blends

Fat is an important component of human diet and fulfils several nutritional functions. It is a concentrated source of energy and helps to increase the caloric density of diets. It is an important source of essential fatty acids, a carrier of fat soluble vitamins and facilitates their absorption and mobilisation. In India, vegetable oils are the major source of dietary fats.- Effect of Crude Palm Oil on the Levels of Human Serum Lipids, Vitamins A and E

Edible vegetable oils are important constituents of Indian diets. Despite the increased production of vegetable oils in the country, the gap between demand and supply has been widening due to increase in population and rise in income levels resulting in large imports mainly of palm oil. As a long term arrangement, to become self sufficient, efforts are undertaken to cultivate oil palm, the most efficient producer of edible oil/ha. About 5000 tonnes of carotenoids and vitamin E rich raw palm oil of indigenous origin find its end use only as an Industrial oil. India is one of the developing countries in which both dietary energy and vitamin A deficiencies are prevalent. This situation has led to the consideration of the possibilities of using crude palm oil as an edible oil.- Effect of Heating on Physico-Chemical Properties of Crude Palm Oil

Palm Oil is one of the very best frying fats. Due to the absence of linolenic acid, it does not leave unpleasant room odour when crude palm oil is heated, the components undergo several oxidative and thermal reactions which ultimately change the physical, chemical, physicochemical, physiological, nutritional and sensory properties of oil. During the life of a frying oil, the development of brown colour is normally associated with oxidation and polymerization. Deterioration of lipid compounds is expedited by increase in acidity oxidation and contamination of trace metals.- The Biochemical Profile in Chronic Alcoholics before and after Antabuse Treatment

Alcoholism represents one of the most serious world-wide socio economic and health problems. It is seen in all races and ethnic groups. It can be defined as a chronic progressive potentially fatal disease characterised by the continued use of alcohol. Alcohol causes diseases of central nervous system, liver, heart, gastro intestinal tract and psychiatric disorders. Repeated use of alcohol causes oesophagitis, gastritis, duodenitis, laryngeal cancer and other diseases of digestive tract and Wernicks and Korsakoffs syndrome. Chronic alcohol abuse is also a major cause for cirrhosis. Thus the present study is undertaken to assess the biochemical parameters, protein profile and electrolyte concentration of chronic alcoholics before and after the antabuse treatment.- Biochemical Changes in Elderly Women Belonging to a Low Socio - Economic Group
