OBJECTIVES To determine the relationships of sodium intake with adiposity and inflammation in healthy adolescents. METHODS A cross-sectional study involved 766 healthy white and African American adolescents aged 14 to 18 years. Dietary sodium intake was estimated by 7-day 24-hour dietary recall. Percent body fat was measured by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Subcutaneous abdominal adipose ...

OBJECTIVES To explore the salt reductions made over time in packaged bread sold in the UK, the biggest contributor of salt to the UK diet. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional surveys were carried out on the salt content of breads available in UK supermarkets in 2001(40 products), 2006 (138) and 2011 (203). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome measure was the change in salt content per 100 g o...

To investigate the effect of nedocromil sodium on changes in airway reactivity to methacholine induced by platelet activating factor, we studied 12 nonasthmatic, nonatopic subjects (24 to 41 years) in a double-blind trial. The FEV1 and airflow at 30 percent of vital capacity from a partial forced expiration (V30p) were used to assess changes in airway caliber. Two concentration-response curves ...

for investigation deficit irrigation and nitrogen application effect on nutrients uptake of henna ecotypes, this research was conducted in the form of split-split-plot on the basis of randomized complete block design with four replications in the research field of islamic azad university, jiroft, iran in 2013-2014. the main, sub and sub-sub plot were deficit irrigation (100, 75 and 50% of crop ...

the interaction between sodium and calcium, magnesium and calcium and the combined effect of sodium, magnesium and calcium was observed on the growth and ion uptake of hippophae rhamnoides l. the results demonstrated that an addition of sodium with calcium, (set a, na 2.5 + ca 5 mm) showed prominent increase in fresh weight of roots and shoots. the dry weight (average) of roots decreased and th...

A system for the regeneratlon of caustic soda solutlons used In etching aluminum Invokes the hydrolysis of sodium aluminate to llberate free sodium hydroxide and produce a dry, crystalllne hydrated alumlna byproduct. The system has been used extenslvely In Japan, and, by adjusting process parameters, can be adapted to North American practice. By otlllting the system in a typical plant, soild ai...

BACKGROUND Bread is a valuable source of proteins, minerals and calories. Baking soda prevents the absorption and digestion of bread and more salt used in production of bread also causes different diseases. This study was conducted to determine the amount of soda and salt in bakeries. METHOD Cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out on 50 bakeries district during 2009. 400 samples wer...
