Abstract
Immature male rats fed a wheat flour-containing ration similar to diet 256 of McClure were retarded in growth and exhibited pathologic changes in the tibia and alveolar bone. A supplement of 8% fish protein concentrate promoted an increment in body weight comparable to that of rats fed a natural food stock ration and prevented the changes in the tibia and alveolar bone.
