Energy and protein requirements*
Abstract
The conventional method of analysing food energy requirements, according to T. B. Wood and J. W. Capstick, partitions the energy expenditure of an animal into three separate components: maintenance, growth, and activity. Two kinds of statement are commonly made about the amount of food which people need. Firstly, figures are quoted for quantities of nutrients which could safely be recommended for practically all individuals, even though they may be living under a wide variety of situations. Secondly, however, estimates are sometimes quoted for minimum physiological requirements, that is, levels of intake below which there is an increasing probability that some specified symptom of deficiency will appear. The concept of an adaptive, self-regulating system implies some type of negative feedback response by which the body is able in part to cancel out changes in inputs and outputs, and maintain the internal state near its original condition.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
