UNU Publications on Food and Nutrition
The Use of Organic Residues in Rural Communities
The first six papers in this report, the second in the applied microbiology series, deal with residues of potential importance as animal feeds, and a further six discuss the application of fermentation technology to carbohydrate substrates for the production of materials suitable for human consumption. Alternative biological energy sources are considered, as is biotechnology for rural communities. Separate discussions on biogas, cellulosic wastes, and carbohydrate and other residues are also included.
IPWN-2/UNUP-362 ISBN 92-808-0362-X 177 pages, 16.5 x 23.5 cm, paper-bound, in press
Protein-Energy Requirements of Developing Countries: Evaluation of New Data
A report of a joint UNU-International Union of Nutritional Sciences working group describing and evaluating data obtained from research to determine the amounts of protein in usual diets required for nitrogen balance and, in the case of children, for growth as well. The discussions and presentations of data from nineteen countries are accompanied by a comparative tabulation and analysis of the nitrogen-balance data reported; and the working group's recommendations for the additional research most urgently required for an in-depth review of international recommendations for protein-energy requirements are outlined.
WHTR-4/UNUP-295 ISBN 92-808-0295-X 268 pages, 16.5 x 23.5 cm, paper-bound
Interdisciplinary Dialogue on World Hunger
In order to define an acceptable set of goals, processes, and indicators for food and nutrition policy and to forge practicable recommendations for research and training, the UNU World Hunger Programme met with the Human and Social Development Programme in a workshop in March 1979. This report describes an attempt to apply the approaches of one group to the research and training programmes of another through substantive interdisciplinary dialogue.
IPDHW-1 /UNUP-229 ISBN 92-808-0229-1 67 pages, 16.5 x 23.5 cm, paper-bound
Nutritional Evaluation of Protein Foods
A report of a joint UNU-lnternational Union of Nutrition Sciences working group presenting a revision of the methods for the comprehensive assessment of the nutritive value of food and feed protein sources. It begins with the determination of nitrogen content, the identification of the principal nitrogenous constituents of the food, and the assessment of nutritional values, including digestibility, by means of in vitro and in vivo assays. The methods and procedures as well as their significance and limitations are considered.
WHTR-3/UNUP-129 ISBN 92-808-0129-5 154 pages, 16.5 x 23.5 cm, paper-bound
Food Price Policies and Nutrition in Latin America
A workshop report analysing the effects of governmental food price policies on the nutritional status of the populations of Latin America and the Caribbean. It points out areas that need further research and suggests methods for conducting it that can be adopted by third-world governments, It also seeks to increase the awareness of industrialized countries of the impact of their international trade policies on the citizens of developing countries.
WHTR-2/UNUP-128 ISBN 92-808-0128-7 170 pages, 16.5 x 23.5 cm, paper-bound
Bioconversion of Organic Residues for Rural Communities
A compilation of papers from a workshop on the development of techniques for the production of biomass from organic residues-focusing on the potential of bacteria, yeasts, fungi, and algae to upgrade organic wastes into valuable feed products through simple fermentation processes. Especially for developing countries with predominantly rural populations it is imperative that such low-cost bioconversion techniques be fully encouraged for improvement of the socio-economic, nutritional, and health conditions of rural areas.
IPWN-1/UNUP-43 ISBN 92-808-043-4 176 pages, 21.4 x 28 cm, paper-bound
Protein-Energy Requirements under Conditions Prevailing in Developing Countries: Current Knowledge and Research Needs
A report on the current state of knowledge regarding protein and energy requirements and appropriate dietary allowances for people living under the conditions prevailing in developing countries and consuming local diets. It brings together much previously unevaluated original data-and points up the failure of present international recommendations to take sufficiently into account the protein energy needs for recovery and catch-up growth following frequent acute and chronic infections and differences in the digestibility and protein quality of local diets, A principal function of the report is to provide suggestions for further needed research.
WHTR-1 /UNUP-18 ISBN 92-808-0018-3 73 pages, 16.5 x 23.5 cm, paper-bound
Maternal Diet, Breast-Feeding Capacity, and Lactational Infertility
The interrelationships of material diet, lactation, and post-partum amenorrhoea are of major importance to maternal and child health, particulary in the Third World, affecting as they do, not only infant nutrition but also birth-spacing. The health policies and programmes of developing countries generally focus the major share of their limited available health resources on these most vulnerable sectors of their populations, thereby not giving due attention to other, equally important, areas. This publication recommends research in a number of areas, including: discrepancies between recommended dietary allowances during pregnancy and lactation and actual consumption levels; the response of a mother's capacity to produce milk where protein and energy deficiencies are limiting factors; and the range of breast milk volumes produced by healthy, totally breast-feeding mothers, and mothers with optimal management of their lactation
