SCIENGE WILL AID FOOD SELECTIONS Determines Just What and How Much to Fat Washington, July 12 (P—Sim- plification of methods of measuring the rclease of heat energy in the vital processes and activitics of the body has placed in the hands of science a new instrument for the benefit of mankind. Energy requirements of both men and animals for various purposes can be ascertained, together with the nutritive values of different foods and the effects of normal or unusual conditions and situations. After devoting many years to the study of the intricate problems in- volved, Dr. Francis G. Benedict, di- rector of the nutrition laboratory of the Carnegie Insitution of Washing- ton, is convinced that every healthy individual has a fixed bhasal meta- bolism, or heat production when in complete Tepos:. When this hasal metabolism is -red in marked degree, he has al learned, the cause is likely to be found in some disease or profoupd change in general makeup, Whith may be either beneficial or detri- mental. At any rate, he holds, measurement of basal metabolism affords an excellent index of the level of an individual's vital activity Many facts concerning metabolism remain only partially understood. but considerable prog: made in recent years. Since all life and vital activities depend ng rates of combustion of food when it is united with oxy- gen in the cells, the process known as metabolism, the cfforts of scien- tists working in this field have heen directed toward the measurement of the heat output of the body. Roughly, that output is approxi- frately equivalent to the amount diated hy a 100-watt lamp, but it undergoes numerous delicate flue- tuations which, correctly interpreted ean give the answers to many ques- tions. Until recently, however, the making of measurements has hen more or les impracticable hecause of the unwicldy and expensive nature of the apparatus required. > Called a “calorimeter,” the appa- ratus first consisted of a chamber constructed of non-conducting ma- terials in which a person could r main for lonz periods without dis- comfort. Water circulating through a system of pipes carries off the heat given ont by the hody, and this conld be measured by computing the differences in temperature of the water as it entered and left the chamber, taking into consideration the volume of its flow. Improvements made possible the measurement also of the amount of oxygen consumed and of carbon dioxide eliminated by the subject. After a sufficient number of experi- ments had heen conducted with this apparatus, the investigators were ahle to show that the liberation of heat energy, production of carbon dioxide and consumption of oxygen were closely correlated in such definite ratios that, given one, the others could be determined by simple calculation. With this information it has be- come possible to measure metabol- fsm merely by ascertaining oxygen consumption with a relatively simple and inexpensive respiration apparat- us which, instead of requiring sev- eral technicians for its operation, can be handled by one. By measur- ing the oxygen consumed in the performance of a given piece of work and subst amount needed to maintain the vital processes in repose, that required for the task alone can be computed.
