Synopsis

The monograph generalizes the results of resolutions of FAO/WHO consultative meetings (1957–2014) regarding the establishment of protein consumption levels and the assessment of its quality, as well as the results of the authors’ work in this field. It provides an intelligible description of both traditional and modern medical and biological methods of assessing the quality of the protein component of food products and diets, the advantages of calculation methods and their types. Using numerous examples, it shows the principles and sequence of calculating the biological value of both individual food components and their mixtures. The chronology of changes in the formula of reference protein and modern recommendations regarding its composition are considered.

The monograph will be useful for scientists, specialists in the field of nutritional science and food industry, who require generalized modern information on the assessment of the protein component of human nutrition.

Keywords: protein, nutrition, physiological need, quality, biological value, calculation, assessment methods.
