Title: [Evaluation of the energy balance of health resort visitors during 21 days staying in the sanatorium]. Author: Pilch W, Bałajewicz G. Journal: Rocz Panstw Zakl Hig; 2009; 60(1):69-73. PubMed ID: 19579773. Abstract: The aim of the work was to count the energy balance in health resort visitors and its influence on body mass change in those patients. On the basis of observations and analysis of the obtained results it is claimed that the diets used by patients were improperly matched to their sex. Women were using diets with too high caloric value, which resulted in rise of BMI (Body Mass Index) and body mass. On the other hand, in the group of males the energy balance was negative. These caused the reduction of BMI and body mass, but not to the correct level. The stay in sanatorium should be the lesson for the patient how to use the proper diet. The correct diet which is dependant on the age, sex, height and the work load should be set more carefully by the medical staff.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
