[Does nutrition influence the propagation of neoplasms?].

In the last years, questions concerning the relationship between nutrition and the occurrence of neoplasms have been studied more intensively. The author discusses the possible involvement of water as a potential carrier of certain cylic hydrocarbons and radionuclides, and of nutrition per se. He treats problems related to, inter alia, bulk materials, polyethenoid fatty acids, the increase in fat consumption, trace elements, vitamins and the importance of the intestinal flora.

Some recent findings in obesity.

The tendency of some obese subjects to an energy-sparing reaction can be induced temporarily by attempts of the patient to reduce his overweight by prolonged starvation. This regulatory reaction may be induced by regulatory especially thyroid mechanisms. In obesity of both sexes a tendency to anaerobic energy utilization in the muscle can be revealed and so a tendency to decrease energy utilization in general. The differences in insulinemia (IRI) displayed a prevalence of maternal obesity in the group with higher levels of basal and stimulated IRI values, which decline after changes in diet and body weight. This behavior of IRI levels and amount and composition of diet indicate a possible permissive role of previous food consumption habits.
