Dietary quality and encephalization in platyrrhine primates [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2011
The high energetic costs of building and maintaining large brains are thought to constrain encephalization. The ‘expensive-tissue hypothesis’ (ETH) proposes that primates (especially humans) overcame this constraint through reduction of another metabolically expensive tissue, the gastrointestinal tract.

Dietary protein quality and malnutrition in Africa [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Nutrition, 2012
The WHO (2007) Technical Report on protein and amino acid requirements in human nutrition states that the best estimate for a population average requirement is 105 mg nitrogen/kg body weight per day, or 0·66 g protein/kg body weight per day. In many developing countries protein intake falls significantly short of these values.

Perspective: Potatoes, Quality Carbohydrates, and Dietary Patterns

open access: yesAdvances in Nutrition
Potatoes have long been a staple food in many cultures and cuisines, but they have gained a reputation as a low-quality carbohydrate source that should be avoided in the diet. Historically, this view has been justified by citing the glycemic index of potatoes as the main indicator of their quality.
