Changing patterns of disease: some nutritional remarks.

L M Klevay

    Journal of the American College of Nutrition
    |January 1, 1984
    PubMed
    Summary

    The 20th century saw a shift from infectious diseases to complex conditions, with increased understanding of vitamins and essential trace elements. New insights into copper physiology may help define nutritional requirements.

    Area of Science:

    • Nutritional Science
    • Biochemistry
    • Public Health

    Background:

    • The 20th century witnessed a significant epidemiological transition in the United States.
    • Mortality causes shifted from infectious diseases to chronic and complex conditions.

    Observation:

    • Inborn errors of metabolism have become more prevalent than traditional deficiency diseases.
    • The 20th century marked the discovery of vitamins and the recognition of essential trace elements.
    • While vitamin assessment methods are well-established, trace element nutriture evaluation remains less developed.

    Findings:

    • Recent advancements have elucidated novel aspects of copper physiology.
    • These discoveries offer potential avenues for establishing precise nutritional requirements for copper.

    Implications:

    • Understanding complex diseases and nutrient roles is crucial for public health.
    • Further research into trace element assessment is needed to improve nutritional guidance.
