  1. 1. Iron absorption in man - diet modification and fortification

    Författare :Michael Hoppe; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Iron absorption; Serum iron; Relative bioavailability; Elemental iron; Iron bioavailability; Iron fortification; Dietary modification; Developing countries;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Iron (Fe) deficiency is globally the most common form of nutrient deficiency. The approach to combat this problem can be divided into two major strategies a): increasing the dietary Fe bioavailability by diet modification, or b): increasing the Fe intake through fortification.

  2. 2. Iron absorption and iron status related to diet : an experimental and epidemiological study

    Författare :Per Tidehag; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; iron status; iron absorption; bioavailability; dietary fiber; phytate; calcium; radioiron; diet;

    Sammanfattning : The absorption of iron from the diet is a major determinant of the iron status of an individual. Accurate measures of iron absorption are thus essential in the determination of the effects of diet composition on iron absorption and status. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Anaemia and iron deficiency in children and women in Tanzania. Effects of dietary iron intake, low iron bioavailability and supplementation with multiple micronutrient beverage

    Författare :Simon Tatala; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; serum ferritin; haemoglobin; multiple micronutrient beverage; dietary iron intake; anaemia; serum retinol; iron deficiency; children and Tanzania; pregnant women; iron bioavailability;

    Sammanfattning : Anaemia was investigated in a rural Tanzanian community to determine its magnitude and causative factors in different population groups. Nutritional anaemia resulting mainly from a diet with a low bioavailability of iron affected more than half of the total number of women and children. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Food habits in Swedish adolescents. Meal pattern, food choice and bioavailability of iron 1994 and 2000

    Författare :Agneta Sjöberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adolescent nutrition; food habits; interview; meals; dietary iron; iron fortification; bioavailability; energy intake; energy expenditure; doubly labelled water;

    Sammanfattning : The general iron fortification of white wheat flour was removed after 50 years of iron fortification. It was considered important to evaluate the effects of withdrawal of iron fortification among vulnerable groups in the population. Adolescents have high iron requirements for growth and the girls for menstrual losses. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Nutritional Assessment in a Rural Area of Bolivia. A Study of Zinc and Iron Deficiencies and Bioavailability

    Författare :Claudia Lazarte; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; zinc; iron; deficiencies; bioavailability; fermentation; developing countries; plant-based diets;

    Sammanfattning : While originally, protein-energy deficiency was considered the main factor of malnutrition, it is now understood that micronutrient deficiencies play a fundamental role in a variety of health and disease outcomes. Zinc and iron deficiencies are still highly prevalent in low-income countries, whereas insufficient intakes and diets with low mineral absorption are the major causes. LÄS MER
