The study was designed to indirectly understand muscle
glycogen utilization during prolonged exercise when either
glucose, fructose, or water is ingested. Eight trained
adult males exercised on a cycle ergometer at 58±7% of V02
max for 2 h on 2-4 occasions. At 0 minutes of exercise and
at 30-minute intervals...
The objectives of this study were a) to determine
if pyridoxine (PN) supplementation increases the rate at
which plasma urea and ammonia return to basal levels,
following exercise, b) to determine, by open circuit
calorimetry, the utilization of carbohydrates, and c) to
further understand vitamin B-6 metabolism during and
following...
Dietary intake data of 15 treated patients with
phenylketonuria (PKU) (7-17 years) and six control siblings
(6-14 years) were used to evaluate the effectiveness of
medical foods to balance energy, protein, vitamin B-6, and
individual amino acids from natural foods and to evaluate
vitamin B-6 status. Four-day diet records were...
Calcium is important to bone health as well as related to a number of health problems such as osteoporosis, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and some cancers. Calcium intake level was far below the Dietary Reference Intake and dairy product consumption was inconsistent with the Daily Dietary Guidelines among adolescents in Taiwan...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of parent education on increasing parental awareness of vegetable servings needed by preschool children, lowering barriers to increase vegetable consumption in their children's diets, increasing confidence in their ability to increase vegetables in their children's meals, and promoting parent-child interaction...
Current dietary recommendations have placed increasing emphasis on dietary fat
as an important element to decrease risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Although total
fat and the fatty acid composition of diets influence the risk of CVD, the optimal amounts
of different fatty acids are not well defined, especially if n-6...
Commercial hog diets in the United States commonly contain lipid sources high in polyunsaturated fatty acids, most notably linoleic acid (18:2). This may result in greater deposits of linoleic acid in pork adipose tissue, contributing to an increased potential for lipid oxidation, high n-6/n-3 fatty acid ratio and increased fat...

Perinatal growth restriction programs higher risk for chronic disease during adulthood via morphological and physiological changes in organ systems. Perinatal growth restriction is highly correlated with a decreased nephron number, altered renal function and subsequent hypertension. I hypothesize that such renal maladaptations result in altered pharmacologic patterns for life. Pregnant...
Numerous dietary factors have been shown to influence the fatty acid profiles (FAP)
in breast milk from lactating women. However, few studies have evaluated the effect of trace
minerals on milk FAP. Consequently, the purpose of this study was to determine the effect
of selenium status on the FAP in...
This study examined the effect of vitamin B-6 supplementation and exhaustive
submaximal exercise on plasma catecholamine concentrations, and the relationship
between plasma catecholamines and fuel use, heart rate and oxygen consumption. Five
trained men (age= 18-35 years; V0₂max=53 ml 0₂/kg/min.) participated in two controlled
dietary periods that were identical except...
