    Abstract:
    Among the population of the Ukrainian SSR 22 per cent of persons suffering from adiposity were revealed. Their nutritional pattern is characterized by an elevated caloritic value, a higher consumption of sugar, animal fats, as well as non-optimal structure of proteinic products. Of interest was elaboration and scientific substantiation of a dietetic nutrition in alimenary adiposity with due regard for the particularities specific for the alimentary pattern prevalent among the residents of the Ukrainian SSR. Under observation were kept 150 patients with alimentary obesity. The patients were kept on a low-calories diet (1450-1600 kcal) with restricted ingestion of carbohydrates (80--120 g), with physiological content of fat and protein. The 1st group of patients received meat and fish as a source of protein, the patients of the 2nd group were given a diet enriched with 100 g of the "Ocean" paste and those of the 3d group received a diet enriched with 150 g of egg whites. The greatest weight reduction was recorded in patients of the 3d group (10.96 +/- 0.48 kg), while in patients of the second (9.4 +/- 0.17 kg) and the first (8.5 +/- 0.34 kg) the reduction proved less marked. A diet enriched with egg white produced most beneficial effect also on the hormonal-metabolic disorders, viz. it helped to more significantly improve the adrenal function, that of the insular system, the blood serum protein metabolism rates, as well as those of the blood serum fat metabolism. The above investigations justify enrichment of the reducing diet with egg white and with the "Okean" paste.
