How much food does man require? New insights
2012
Henry, C. J. K.
The transition from hunter gatherers to modern man is categorized by the enormous decrease in the number of plant species utilized today. Four main staples, rice, wheat, corn and potato, feed almost 80% of the world's population. An additional characteristic of our modern diet is the rich energy density of our meals. In order to estimate human energy requirements, new predictive equations to estimate basal metabolic rate have been developed. These equations will enable us to estimate human energy requirements in both developed and developing countries.
