Abstract
Hourly determinations of weight loss on 10 [male] human subjects following the ingestion of 100 gms. of concentrated food dissolved in water showed the maximum increase during the 2d hr. (16% above basal). There was a gradual decline in rate of loss thereafter, and by the 5th hr. the rate was only 5% above normal. Following ingestion of water alone the rate of loss increased about 7% during the 1st hr. and decreased slightly thereafter. During the 2d hr. the rate of weight loss was 13% lower than following the ingestion of conc. food and water.
