"Developed from a symposium sponsored by the Division of
Agricultural and Food Chemistry of the American Chemical Society .
. . Antinutrients are present in different amounts in practically
all plant foods. Antinutrients and their breakdown products have a
deleterious effect on the absorption of different nutrients and
micronutrients, which determines the healthy functions of body
organs. Besides this undesirable effect, beneficent influence,
especially when they are taken in small amounts is manifested. . .
. It was observed the low incidence of pancreatic carcinoma in the
population with a high intake of soybean-based food which contains
protease inhibitors. The high anticholesteremic activity of
saponins, etc. was also established. These topics were presented
and discussed in detail . . . in the 18 papers included in this
volume. I have remarked in each contribution a rich up-to-date
bibliography. The volume is completed by author and subject
indexes."--Cellulose Chemistry and Technology
