Abstract
Over a period of eighteen months, sixty patients have been maintained on constant formula intake for periods ranging from one to four months. The use of this type of diet has the advantages of extreme constancy of intake and relative simplicity of preparation. The use of this procedure makes balance studies feasible in institutions where metabolic ward facilities are not available.
