Relation of Food Intake to Response of Mice Inoculated with Lansing Strain of Murine Poliomyelitis Virus

Abstract
Restriction of diet whether synthetic or stock to about 40% of usual daily consumption results in delay of paralysis and death beyond the 21st day. In exptl. groups of mice the percentages of paralyzed mice on the restricted diet were 10 and 20 as against 88, 80 and 91 of those on unrestricted diet. The difference between groups disappeared by the 27th day.
