  • Title: Calculates vs. analyzed composition of four modified fat diets. Formulated to study effects in human subjects of kind and amount of dietary fat.
    Author: Marshall MW, Judd JT.
    Journal: J Am Diet Assoc; 1982 Jun; 80(6):537-49. PubMed ID: 6282951.
    Abstract:
    Four diets, varying in kind and amount of fat, were calculated to meet the needs of adult men. Commonly available U.S.A. food were used. Fourteen days of menus, each with five caloric levels varying from 2,400 to 4,000 kcal, were calculated. Chemical analyses of composites were carried out to determine proximate composition, food energy, selected vitamins and minerals, sugars, fatty acids, and sterols. The diets were used in a controlled study of the effects of fat level and P:S on blood pressure, blood lipids, platelet aggregation, and other variables. In general, good agreement was found between calculated and analyzed nutrient contents. However, analyzed values for fiber, iron, cholesterol, and vitamin C showed larger than desirable differences from calculated values.
