A nutritional analysis of the food rations on Martin Frobisher's second expedition, 1577 / Conrad E. Heidenreich, Nancy L. Heidenreich.
Title: | A nutritional analysis of the food rations on Martin Frobisher's second expedition, 1577 / Conrad E. Heidenreich, Nancy L. Heidenreich. |
Author(s): | Heidenreich, Conrad E. Heidenreich, Nancy L. |
Date: | 2002. |
In: | Polar Record. (2002.), Vol. 38(204) (2002) |
Abstract: | Detailed lists of food for Martin Frobisher's second expedition give quantity, cost and how rations should be shared out. Four "meat days" a week gave 5000 calories, three "fast days" 4000 calories, allowing monotonous but adequate diet, except for absence of vitamin C and deficiency of vitamin A. Dietary problems would probably only occur if men were away more than six months. |
