The total intake of energy and nutrients was recorded during 5 consecutive d in ten constipated patients in a geriatric ward. Twenty grams of ordinary or low-phytate wheat bran was then added to their diet and the 5-d food intake was recorded after 6 and 12 weeks, respectively. The intake was generally satisfactory and decreased in only two women on bran treatment. The hospital diet had a high mineral content and calcium, magnesium, zinc and iron levels in serum did not decrease when wheat bran was added to the diet. Consequently no difference was found in serum mineral levels, when ordinary wheat bran was replaced by a low-phytate bran.
在一个老年病房中，对10名便秘患者连续5天的能量和营养素总摄入量进行了记录。然后在他们的饮食中添加20克普通或低植酸麦麸，并分别在6周和12周后记录5天的食物摄入量。摄入量总体上令人满意，只有两名接受麦麸治疗的女性摄入量有所下降。医院饮食的矿物质含量很高，在饮食中添加麦麸后，血清中的钙、镁、锌和铁水平并未降低。因此，当用低植酸麦麸替代普通麦麸时，血清矿物质水平没有发现差异。
