Abstract
THE Council of the British Medical Association, having realised that the adequate nutrition of the population is a matter of national importance, appointed a committee in April 1933 “to determine the minimum weekly expenditure on foodstuffs which must be incurred by families of varying size, if health and working capacity are to be maintained, and to construct specimen diets”. The report of the committee was printed as a supplement to the British Medical Journal of November 25, 1933, which has now been reprinted.
