Refined carbohydrates - a cause of suboptimal nutrient intake.
(Medical Hypotheses, 1983)During the refining of carbohydrate foods there is a sharp drop in the concentration of dietary fiber and of various vitamins and minerals. Estimates were made of the effect of refining on the total diet intake of ... -
Role of selenium and cabbage in colon carcinogenesis in mice.
(Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 1987)The influence of dietary selenium and cabbage on the formation of colon tumors in female Swiss mice treated with 1,2.dimethylhydrazine [(DMH) CAS: 540-73-8] was reported. Mice received a control diet (laboratory chow), ... -

Simplicity - the key to fruitful medical research
(Medical Hypotheses, 1985)Medical research is here divided -into two broad categories. The great majority of research is "complex" and includes all studies of intricate body mechanisms. A minority of research is "simple" and deals mainly ... -
Strategies of subcellular fractionation suitable for analysis of peroxisomes and microperoxisomes of animal tissues.
(International Journal of Biochemistry, 1983)Strategies of subcellular fractionation are reviewed from the perspective of their utility in the analysis of peroxisomes. The considerable potential inherant in the method of rate dependent banding In zonal rotors is ... -
Subcellular localization of monoglyceride acyltransferase, xanthine oxidation, NADP: isocitrate dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase in the mucosa of the guinea-pig small intestine.
(Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1980)1. Rate dependent and isopycnic banding in a zonal rotor were used to analyse the subcellular sites of enzymes in homogenates of guinea-pig small intestinal mucosa. 2, The results demonstrate the following localizations: ... -
Survey of nutrition knowledge of Canadian physicians
(Journal of the American College of Nutrition, 1999)Objectives: Previous reports have indicated that physicians generally have little training in nutrition and a poor knowledge of the subject. A survey was carried out to determine the nutrition knowledge of physicians working ... -

Towards a new system of health: the challenge of western disease
(Journal of Community Health, 1993)Over the last three decades, the concept of Western disease has become well established. Medicine has approached this group of diseases by searching for new cures but has achieved relatively little success. We argue ... -
Toxicity of 1,2-dimethlyhydrazine in mice: effect of diet and development of tolerance
(Journal of Food Safety, 1985)The effect of diet on the lethality of 1, 2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) injections was investigated using Swiss mice. Mortality was highest when mice were fed a nutrient-dilutealfhigh-fat diet, was intermediate with a ... -

The war on cancer: failure of therapy and research
(Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 1991)A generally-held beliefby both the medical profession and the lay public is that therapeutic medicine greatly affects health. Providing more hospital beds, doctors and resources is viewed as the path to improve ... -
Water: a neglected nutrient in the young child? A South African perspective
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2007)Water is considered an essential nutrient because the body cannot produce enough water itself, by metabolism of food, to fulfil its need.When the quantity or quality of water is inadequate, health problems result, most ... -
Zonal rotor analysis of the subcellular localization of B-glycero-phosphate dehydrogenase, 1-naphthyl palmitate and 2-napthyl laurate hydrolases in the mucosa of the guinea-pig small intestine.
(Histochemistry Journal, 1976)Whole homogenate of guinea-pig small intestine mucosa was analysed by centrifugation in a zonal rotor. The results indicate that FAD-linked a-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase is localized in the mitochondria and that ... -
Zonal rotor study of the subcellular distribution of acyl-CoA synthetases, carnitine acyl transferases and phosphatidate phosphatase in the guinea-pig small intestine.
(European Journal of Cell Biology, 1979)Homogenates made from the mucosa of the guinea pig small intestine were fractionated in a zonal rotor by rate and isopycnic centrifugation in sucrose gradients. Density perturbation of endoplasmic reticulum vesicles was ...
