The Effects of Beef Liver on the Growth of Catfish and Goldfish
THE EFFECTS OF BEEF LIVER ON THE GROWTH OF CATFISH AND GOLDFISH by MARION ISABELL CAMPBELL B. S., Kansas State Teachers College, Pittsburg, 1924 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE KANSAS STATE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE 1930 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS page INTRODUCTION 2 REVIEW OF LITERATURE 3 METHODS 4 DISCUSSION 8 SUMMARY 18 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 19 BIBLIOGRAPHY 20 PLATES 21 INTRODUCTION In experiments worked out by Edward Schneberger, under the direction of Dr. Minna E. Jewell in 1928-29 at the Kansas State Agricultural College, fish fed a diet contain- ing liver gained more in growth than those fed a non-liver diet. These results suggested the following questions: 1. Is liver just a desirable source of protein in the diet of catfish and goldfish or is some other growth factor contained in it? 2. Is the amount of liver a factor in the rate of growth of catfish and goldfish? 3 These studies were made under the direction of Dr. Edward J. Wimmer of the Kansas State Agricultural College under the auspices of the Zoology Department of the Kansas State Agricultural College. REVIEW OF LITERATURE The field of fish nutrition is comparatively new. Liver has always been a favorite food among hatchery people, because fish eat it readily and it has fulfilled the requirements of an adequate diet. Pearse (1925) worked out the chemical composition of certain fresh water fishes and found the body to contain an average of 2.44 per cent nitrogen for the year. This would be supplied by the protein content of the food. -
Liver-Healthy Shopping Guide
Liver-healthy Shopping Guide The liver is the world’s most efficient battery. It helps power your body by storing and releasing energy when you need it. Your liver plays a key role in converting food into the chemicals essential for life and it is therefore important to make food choices that optimize liver health. Although there is no specific ‘liver health diet’, these general guidelines will help ensure that your liver is functioning at its best: General Guidelines: • Choose a variety of foods from all four food groups of Canada’s Food Guide to Healthy Eating (http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/fn-an/food-guide- aliment/index_e.html ). Focus on lower fat choices within each food group. • Eat at least 2 servings from the Meat & Alternatives food group (meat, fish, poultry, peanut butter, dried beans, peas, lentils). • Eat small regular meals. Do not skip meals or over-eat. • Drink 6 to 8 glasses of fluids (preferably water) a day. • Avoid alcohol – or if you drink, do not have more than one to two drinks per occasion (and never on a daily basis). • Consult your doctor if you are considering taking vitamins or herbal supplements. Particular herbal supplements have the potential to cause liver damage and certain vitamins may be harmful to the liver if taken in high doses, particularly vitamin A. • Choose organic foods whenever possible: The less pesticides/chemicals/antibiotics/hormones, the less your liver has to filter. • Fresh is generally best e.g. firm and clean, organic and in-season produce • Wash fruit and vegetables right before use to remove pesticides. -

Heart Health Through Whole Foods
Heart Health Through Whole Foods Certain whole foods in a diet can ultimately provide heart-healthy benefits. The right foods consumed in the right amounts can help lower cholesterol and/or triglycerides. They may also help to reduce risk for heart disease. Even though the benefits of whole foods may be known, too often individuals turn to over-the-counter supplements instead. It is important to discuss all supplements prior to ingestion with your physician. Individuals may not realize that taking some supplements with certain medications may be harmful or that taking too much of a good thing can be bad. The purpose of this session is to educate how to obtain certain nutrients through whole foods rather then through supplements. It must be noted that some individuals may still need supplements in addition to diet. Once again this should be guided by a physician.

Fatty Liver Diet Guidelines
Fatty Liver Diet Guidelines What is Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)? NAFLD is the buildup of fat in the liver in people who drink little or no alcohol. NAFLD can lead to NASH (Non- Alcoholic Steatohepatitis) where fat deposits can cause inflammation and damage to the liver. NASH can progress to cirrhosis (end-stage liver disease). Treatment for NAFLD • Weight loss o Weight loss is the most important change you can make to reduce fat in the liver o A 500 calorie deficit/day is recommended or a total weight loss of 7-10% of your body weight o A healthy rate of weight loss is 1-2 pounds/week • Change your eating habits o Avoid sugar and limit starchy foods (bread, pasta, rice, potatoes) o Reduce your intake of saturated and trans fats o Avoid high fructose corn syrup containing foods and beverages o Avoid alcohol o Increase your dietary fiber intake • Exercise more o Moderate aerobic exercise for at least 20-30 minutes/day (i.e. brisk walking or stationary bike) o Resistance or strength training at least 2-3 days/week Diet Basics: • Eat 3-4 times daily. Do not go more than 3-4 hours without eating. • Consume whole foods: meat, vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, legumes, and whole grains. • Avoid sugar-sweetened beverages, added sugars, processed meats, refined grains, hydrogenated oils, and other highly processed foods. • Never eat carbohydrate foods alone. • Include a balance of healthy fat, protein, and carbohydrate each time you eat. © 7/2019 MNGI Digestive Health Healthy Eating for NAFLD A healthy meal includes a balance of protein, healthy fat, and complex carbohydrate every time you eat. -

Ground Beef and Food Safety
United States Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service Food Safety Information USDA Photo USDA Photo Ground Beef and Food Safety uestions about “ground meat” or “hamburger” have always been in the top five food topics of Qcalls to the USDA’s Meat and Poultry Hotline. Here are the most frequently asked questions. What’s the difference Beef fat may be added to “hamburger,” but not “ground beef.” A maximum between “hamburger” of 30% fat is allowed in either hamburger or ground beef. Both hamburger and “ground beef”? and ground beef can have seasonings, but no water, phosphates, extenders, or binders added. The labeling of meat food products must comply with the Federal Meat Inspection Act (FMIA) and the meat inspection regulations and labeling policies. Most states and cities set standards for store-packaged ground beef which, by law, cannot be less than Federal standards. If products in retail stores were found to contain more than 30% fat, they would be considered “misbranded” under Federal law. Is ground beef inspected All meat transported and sold in interstate commerce must be federally and graded? inspected. The Food Safety and Inspection Service carries out USDA’s responsibilities under the Federal Meat Inspection Act. These laws protect consumers by ensuring that meat products are wholesome, unadulterated, and currently labeled and packaged. For meat being transported and sold within a state, state inspection would apply. State inspection programs must enforce requirements at least equal to those of Federal inspection laws. Ground beef exported to the U.S. from USDA-approved eligible nations must meet all safety standards applied to foods produced in the United States.
