Yogurt is the most important fermented dairy product. However, its per capita consumption in Iran is low. Production of flavored yogurt to create a variety of products can cause customer satisfaction and increase in per capita consumption. Flavored yogurt at three levels: 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 were prepared by adding Zoulang aqueous extract. The systems were prepared by following a factorial design,...

BACKGROUND There is only one previous study addressing the relationship between population drinking and sickness absence. That study, based on Swedish time-series data, showed a statistically significant relationship between per capita alcohol consumption and the male sickness absence rate. Estimates suggested that a 1-l increase in consumption was associated with a 13% increase in sickness abs...

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between water use of countries and coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) data in order to establish effect dynamics on COVID-19 pandemics. Material Methods: The country-based consumption per capita (WC) indices [total cases 1 million population (CI-C) deaths (CI-D)] collected from Worldometer website Global Competitiveness Scores Report 2019 World Economic ...

A telephone survey of domestic Australian tourists was conducted to determine the relative contribution they make to estimates of per capita alcohol consumption. The overall drinking patterns of interstate tourists were examined, along with contrasts between those who visit the Northern Territory and those who visit other parts of the country. The results show that drinking generally increased ...

study by Masood et al. [2012]. Taking into account the collective flow of sugared goods (sugar, syrup, honey), in fact the per capita sugar consumption in Switzerland was 42.3 kg in 2004 and has not changed significantly since [Swiss Farmers’ Union, 2010]. The World Health Organization [2011] also reported a sugar consumption of about 40 kg per capita per year in Switzerland. Thus, sugar consum...

Community ecology has long focused on energy and nutrients as currencies of species interactions. Evidence from physiological ecology and recent studies suggest that in terrestrial systems, water may influence animal behavior and global patterns of species richness. Despite these observations, water has received little attention as a currency directly influencing animal species interactions. He...

BACKGROUND Previous research has shown that tobacco control funding in California has reduced per capita cigarette consumption and per capita healthcare expenditures. This paper refines our earlier model by estimating the effect of California tobacco control funding on current smoking prevalence and cigarette consumption per smoker and the effect of prevalence and consumption on per capita heal...
