Selenium content of selected hospital diets
1981
McConnell, K.P. | Smith, J. Cecil Jr | Higgins, P.J. | Blotcky, A.J.
Neutron activation analysis of the selenium content of hospital meals was performed on breakfasts, lunches, and dinners collected over a 7-day period; results indicated, on average, 85.5 micrograms selenium for regular meat-based diets, 118 micrograms for ovo-lacto-vegetarian diets, and 54.6 micrograms for low calorie-low protein renal diets. Since hospital patients often leave food on their plates, actual selenium intakes would be lower; intakes should still fall within the 50-200 micrograms daily intake range recommended by the Food and Nutrition Board. However, the renal diet provided barely adequate selenium levels, and the regular hospital diet supplied near the lower limit of the "estimated safe and adequate" range for selenium intake in man.
