Abstract
The diet, serum cholesterol, and fecal constituents of 23 healthy spouses have been compared. The pattern of food intake between couples was similar, but of dietary constituents, only dietary fat and fiber intake showed a significant correlation. Of fecal constituents, only fecal fat correlated significantly between couples.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
