The influence of the quantity of basal food intake on vitamin A utilization has been studied by means of carefully controlled triads of rats as measured by rate of growth and incidence of “abscessed” areas. For the levels of vitamin A used in this experiment, the caloric intake was responsible for a greater proportion of the gain in weight during a 4-week period than was the unitage of vitamin A administered, the percentage of the gain in weight from caloric intake increasing at each elevation of vitamin intake. When the intake of vitamin A was identical in different groups of animals, the gain in weight was directly related to the quantity of basal diet consumed during the period of observation. |
