FOOD VALUES OF iWHAT WE CONSUME, BY DR J.’ H. BUCHANAN. Bfnee •wo regard Pure Carbonated ‘Waters and Cordials as Pood Products, it is well to consider just what tlieir food value really is. One method of doing this is to determine the amount of energy that will bo furnished the body. The body like a steam engine. It requires fuel to keep it going. This fuel or energy is furnished the body in three forms, all of which are constituents of the food. These forms are carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. From a definite amount of each of these foods the body will derive a definite amount of energy. This is measured in calorics, which, means a definite amount of heat. A calorie, as wo use the term, means the amount of heat that will raise I.OOOgm of water 1 degree Centigrade. This is just a little less than a quart of Water. Carbohydrates when burned in the body as food furnish about 1,860. calories per pound. In an ordinary sire bottle of pure carbonated water there wo about 87 calorics. On the pound basis this would amount to about 167 calories per pound. Compare this with the calorics found in a number fellows: of more ordinary foods, as’ These figures show very well that the food value of pure carbonated waters is an item of importance. With respect to nutrition, they have other values as well.—Dr J. H. Buchanan, lowa State College,
