Abstract

This pamphlet, first published in 1937, is here brought up to date. Vitamin values are now expressed in international units when possible. There are also discussions of the effects of cooking on food values, and a summary of dietary requirements at various ages has been added. There is also some bibliography. The elements of information in the field of nutrition are not elsewhere more authentically stated than in these tables. Particularly valuable is the expression of data in measurements of approximate servings.
