Objective: To highlight the methodology used to determine nutrient per capita per day values, to report values for food energy and 12 nutrients and to compare these values with FAO nutrient per capita values and Recommended Dietary Intakes (RDIs) for Italy.
Design: The nutrient content of the Italian food supply was calculated using food per capita data from FAO and food composition data from the Italian National Nutrition Institute.
Results: All nutrient per capita values have increased since 1961 except carboyhdrate.
Trials with Trive 1000 allow to confirm its perfect tolerance and its real interest in N sparing effect provided a minimum of 1500 ml, or even better 2000 ml are perfused with an adequate caloric carboyhdrate complement. However, in severe cases such as septicemia, one may expect a positive N balance only with much more important supply of N and calories. Since there is almost no change in parameters refleting fat metabolism, one may suppose a normal utilisation of injected fat.
