Multidisciplinary treatment of obesity with a protein-sparing modified fast: Results in 668 outpatients
Six hundred sixty-eight obese outpatients, 71 per cent (+/- 34) in excess of ideal weight, were enrolled in a multidisciplinary weight control program. The major components of the program included nutrition, education, behavior modification, and exercise. Rapid weight loss was accomplished using a very low calorie (less than 800 kcal) ketogenic diet. Patients adhered to the protein sparing modified fast (PSMF) for 17 +/- 12 weeks and averaged 9 +…
Anemia of pregnancy: Evaluation of the effectiveness of routine dietary supplementation program in an Israeli community
Of 514 Israeli women 4-5 months pregnant, 200 who were non-anemic (Hb 11 gm/100 ml or higher) took a daily supplement of ferrous sulfate (100 mg elemental iron). The 160 who remained on this regimen showed, as a group significantly less reduction in hemoglobin levels than 180 non-anemic women who did not wish to take the supplement. Forty of the 200 women either dropped out or were shifted to other treatment regimens because they developed anemia…
Ethnic differences in hemoglobin distribution of Asian and European Jewish women in Israel, both pregnant and nonpregnant
Hemoglobin levels of Asian Jewish women both while pregnant and nonpregnant were lower than in their European counterparts by about 0.23 g/100 ml to 0.3 g/100 ml. The groups had similar parity numbers but the Asian women's socioeconomic status was lower. In both the pregnant and nonpregnant, Israeli-born Asian women had higher mean hemoglobin levels than Asian immigrants but lower than Israeli-born Europeans
Evaluation of the dietary intake of the Israeli population, 1949–1977
Routine evaluation of nutritional adequacy of food supplies by comparing these supplies with population age‐ and sex‐weighted Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA) is advocated. Such analyses reveal that in Israel all nutrients except calcium were supplied in 1975 at higher levels than the allowances, leaving the margin wider than 20 percent for nutrients’ losses due to processing and home waste, suggesting overabundance. Israeli food balance shee…
