    This experiment was performed to find out a profitable radiation dose of cobalt-60 gamma ray in the following studies concerning the effects of nutrition on the radiation susceptibility.
    Weanling Wistar strain male albino rats were administered a diet containing 12 per cent protein and 10 per cent soybean oil for 15 days before and 30 days after the irradiation.
    Though body weight gain in each experimental group was almost the same during the 15-day period before the exposure, dose effects on the animals were observed significantly.
    No radiation death was observed in the growing rat exposed to cobalt-60 gamma ray of both 300 and 600 roentgen, but 900 and 1, 200 roentgen irradiation caused a 100 per cent mortality within 15 days after the irradiation.
    The body weight gain in survivors of the group exposed to 300 roentgen was a little more significant than that of the 600 roentgen group.
    From the results above mentioned, it was suggested that a profitable radiation dose for our studies can be found within a dose range lying between 600 roentgen and 900 roentgen.

    Wistar strain young male albino rats were fed on the diet as same composition as in the previous report for 30 days before and 30 days after exposure to cobalt-60 gamma ray.
    A dose range between 600 roentgen and 900 roentgen was divided with 100 roentgen interval, and 1200 roentgen level was added to them as the highest dose level.
    All experimental groups started with 10 rats each. Thirty-day radiation mortality in nonirradiated, 600, 700, 800, 900 and 1200 roentgen irradiated groups were 0, 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10 rats, respectively. The mean survival time in days obtained from latter 4 groups showed that the survival time shortened with increasing dose. Body weight gain in survivors during 30 days after the irradiation was decreased with the increasing dose. Eight hundred roentgen irradiation caused a small weight gain, however, 100 roentgen over 800 roentgen resulted a body weight loss. Liver-thiobarbituric acid values (liver-TBA value) examined in survivors of each group 30 days after the irradiation.
    The liver-TBA values obtained from the two groups of non-and 600 roentgen irradiated were the same, and though the value elevated with the increasing dose up to 800 roentgen, the 900 roentgen irradiation reduced the value to the value of 600 roentgen.

    Weanling Wistar strain albino rats were fed on a commercial pellet diet for 9 weeks. Thiobarbituric acid value of liver homogenates was determined at every 7 days till 6 weeks, and at 9 weeks.
    The liver-TBA value decreased till 4 weeks acompanying with a decrease of body weight gain per week. However, a temporal high value was obtained after 5 weeks and then the value became lower gradually to the end week. The body weight gain per week during each period showed the quite same tendency as seen in the liver-TBA value.

    The average of ascorbic acid of samples of Citrus unshiu grown in Chita county, Aichi prefecture in the end of January was 34.3mg% in large size and 29.7mg% in small size.
    In order to observe the change of ascorbic acid content of the samples, we took up the following four factors: (a) places of cultivation, Chita county, Aichi prefecture and Mikkabi-town, Shizuoka prefecture, (b) size, large and small, (c) stored in heated room or not, and (d) kept during 0 days, 20 days, 40 days.
    By the method of analysis of variance by four way layout with replication, we found difference of ascorbic acid content of edible part of the samples significant only in the factor of keeping days in the level of significance 1%.
    We also found difference of the weight ratio of edible part/peel of the samples significant only in both factors of keeping days and size in the level of significance 1%.
    Thus we confirmed that the ascorbic acid content of Citrus unshiu bought in the end of January weight ratio of edible part to the whole, and weight ratio of peel to the whole are to change by the days, during which they are kept.

    This study was planned to investigate the nutritional status in the cerebral palsied children. Thiamine and riboflavin contents of the blood were estimated for the cerebral palsied children and other crippled children of a rihabilitation institution.
    On the estimation of blood thiamine content, no significant difference was found among the groups of healthy children, cerebral palsied children and other crippled children.
    The riboflavin content of the blood in the group of crippled children showed lower values than that of healthy children and this tendency was remarkable among children of athetoid type in the cerebral palsied.

    A nutritional survey was carried out in August 1963 at Himaka-Island in the administrative district of Mihama Health Center.
    Since then, diet education was put in practice by dietitian regularly according to the result of this survey.
    A nutritional survey was carried out again at same island in May 1967, and the specific gravity of blood was examined at the same time.
    Diet education was placed emphasis on the intake of Fat, Calciun and Vitamin A, but only a little improvement on the intake of Fat and Calcium was proved.
    A specific gravity of blood had a great relation to the intake of nutrients-specially of Protein and Fe. And the lower specific gravity of blood was proved among adult women.

    In July, 1966, food consumption survey was practiced in citrus growing district.
    Data collected from 67 families by the same method of National Nutrition Survey. Most of them were farming families favoured by good income.
    Nutrients inkake, per person per day, are shown in Table 1. Being the citrus fruits growing area, cultivation of L. G. Y. vegetables is very poor and inadequate intake of Vitamin A is observed.

    Since 1957 in Kanagawa Prefecture at every health center Nutrition Improvement Course were held yearly for homemakers who shoud be the leaders of community nutrition work.
    Test of nutrition information and daily food survey were given by health centers. The objects were homemakeres attended the course in 1966.
    Those taking a bottle of milk daily were 32-39% of them.
    Those taking enriched rice were 64-77%.
    Among the 25% of their families non-breakfasteaters were seen.
    Correct answers were given: by 36-45% of them to nutritive value of none fat milk, by 19-31% to protein rich food, by 36-51% to Calcium rich food, by 17-35% to Vitamin A rich food, by 19-51% to Basic Food.
