In two experiments, each involving 200 pullets, sunflower meal as a protein concentrate was compared with high quality fish meal, at two levels of protein intake. Since production was not reduced by the low protein intakes, it was concluded that the quality of the protein in sunflower meal was satisfactory for egg production. When 25% of sunflower meal was included in the mash, the consumption of mash was not reduced but the birds appeared to be unable to maintain high egg production and to maintain body weight at the same time. From this it was concluded that such percentages of sunflower meal gave an undesirably high fibre content and too low an energy value to the diet.

Great Burden

Low protein diet (LPD) plays an important role in preventing the progression of diabetic nephropathy. However, it is a great burden to the patients. In this paper, we have studied the quality of life (QOL) in such patients. The study subjects were 59 patients (male 38, female 21) with type 2 diabetes. The patients were classified into tertiles based on their protein intake (g/kg BW). Scores from the diet-related QOL questionnaire were summarized by principal component analysis into four components; mental health, less burden, satisfaction and merit, and less social restriction. Higher protein intake was associated with less burden and less social restriction. In multiple regression analysis, the significant predictors for the “less burden” component were higher protein intake/BW and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). In summary, registered dietitians and clinicians must keep in mind that LPD is a serious burden to the patients and efforts must be made to minimize their burden in order to avoid discontinuation.

1. Five proteins, freeze-dried cod muscle, a white fish meal, a yeast-protein concentrate, a soya protein and a fish-protein concentrate (a solvent-extracted fish meal) were given separately, as single sources of protein in diets containing 500g crude protein/kg, to small plaice (Pleuronectes platessa) of mean initial weight 12–15g. Weight gain and net protein utilization (NPU) were examined.2. Even at these high protein intakes, significant differences in growth rate between fish given the different proteins were evident. These findings were reflected in different NPU values between the proteins. This position contrasts with that in the rat where proteins which differ markedly in NPU at low protein intakes have similar NPU values when given at high dietary levels.3. Coefficients of apparent digestibility measured on larger plaice (150–200g) were high for all the proteins used except soya-bean meal, which had a digestibility coefficient of 0.68.4. At high protein intakes there was no clear relationship between NPU values and essential amino acid content (as measured chemically) of the proteins tested.5. The preparation of protein concentrates from fatty fish by the use of detergents is described. One of the preparations obtained gave weight gains and NPU values similar to those obtained with commercially available feedstuff proteins.

Soyabean Meal

Soyabean meal (SBM) is used extensively in poultry rations. As the cultivation of soya bean is limited in Iran, annually a large amounts of SBM is imported. In recent years cultivation of some oil seed such as sunflower seed (Heliantus annus) is undertaken in some provinces of Iran. This plant will grow in cooler and dried climates than the soya bean or cotton plants. It contains 45 percent oil and a good source of protein and B-group vitamins. Due to high fibre content and low lysine content, use of sunflower meal (SSM) is limited in poultry feeds, but dehulled SSM is suitable for broiler feeds (Church, 1988 and Scott et al., 1982). The objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of SSM on performance of broiler chicken.

Abstract Background Concerns about adherence and quality of life (QoL) limit the diffusion of low-protein diets (LPDs) as a way to slow chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression and postpone dialysis. The aim of this multicentre study is to assess dietary satisfaction in stable CKD patients. Methods This was a multicentre cross-sectional study with long-term follow-up data. Prevalent patients on LPD for at least 6 months were selected in four Italian centres. QoL was assessed using the World Health Organization Quality of Life questionnaire, and diet satisfaction with the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease satisfaction questionnaire. Comorbidity was assessed by Charlson Comorbidity Index, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated by the CKD Epidemiology Collaboration equation and protein intake by Maroni–Mitch formula. Survival was analysed with Kaplan–Meier curves and Cox Proportional Hazard Model. Results Four hundred and twenty-two CKD Stages 3–5 patients were enrolled. Over 95% were on moderately restricted diets (0.6 g/kg/day). Compliance was good (protein intake: 0.59 g/kg/day at baseline, 0.72 at the end of follow-up). Median dietary satisfaction was 4 on a 1–5 scale. QoL was not affected by the type of diet, but was influenced by age, comorbidity and setting of care. Two years later, at the end of follow-up, 66.6% of the patients were still on a diet; the main causes of discontinuation were dialysis and death. The dropout rate was low (5.5%); in Cox analysis, patient and renal survival were influenced by age and eGFR, but not by QoL, setting of care or type of diet. Conclusions LPDs are compatible with high dietary satisfaction and minimal dropout, at least in patients who are able to follow such a diet for at least 6 months.

The aim of this study was to find the effect of kale and dietary fibre (DF) on the physicochemical properties, nutritional value and sensory quality of multigrain bars. A recipe of multigrain bars was prepared with the addition of fresh kale (20% and 30%) and DF preparations (apple, blackcurrant, chokeberry and hibiscus). The bars were baked at 180 °C for 20 min. These snack bars, based on pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, flaxseed and wholegrain oatmeal, are a high-calorie product (302–367 kcal/100 g). However, the composition of the bars encourages consumption. In addition to the ability to quickly satisfy hunger, such bars are rich in many natural ingredients that are considered pro-health (high fibre content (9.1–11.6 g/100 g), protein (11.2–14.3 g/100 g), fat (17.0–21.1 g/100 g, including unsaturated fatty acids), carbohydrates (20.5–24.0 g/100 g), as well as vitamins, minerals and a large number of substances from the antioxidant group. The addition of kale caused a significant increase of water content, but reduction in the value of all texture parameters (TPA profiles) as well as calorific values. The content of polyphenols was strongly and positively correlated with the antioxidant activity (r = 0.92). In the bars with 30% addition of kale (422 mg GA/100 g d.m.), the content of polyphenols was significantly higher than based ones (334 mg GA/100 g d.m.). Bars with the addition of the DF were characterized by a higher antioxidant activity, and the content of carotenoids, chlorophyll A and B and polyphenols. High sensory quality was demonstrated for all (from 4.8 to 7.1 on a 10-point scale). The addition of fibre preparations was also related to technological aspects and allows to create attractive bars without additional chemicals.
