FEDERAL SCIENTIST REPORTS
ON FOOD VALUE DERIVED
FROM SUCH OILS
SEATTLE. Jail. 18— It is only i
question of time until fish fats will b(
much more extensively used in th<
human dietary, according to a repor
of the composition, digestibility, anc
vitamin content of fish oils made ir
connection Avith a study of the nu
tritive value of fish and shell fish bj
the Bureau of Fisheries.
In the report, the author, Arthur D
Holmes, formerly specialist in charge
of nutrition experiments, office oi
Home Economics, States Relations
Service, Department of Agriculture,
states that fish fats such as the liver
oils are the richest known natural
source of the essential fat-soluble vita
mins, and that some of the fat-rich sea
foods, such as canned sardines, sal
mon, and shad roe, have an energy
\ralue equal to that of popular hearty
foods such as veal, milk, sirloin steak,
and baked beans.
When economic conditions demand
it, chemists will be able to transform
fish fats into products suited to the
consumer’s taste, according ti the re
port, which follows in essential part.
“The dietary value of fish oils, like
that of fats and oils obtained from
land animals and plants, depends on a
number of factors, the principal ones
being their composition or nature, di
gestibility and vitamin content. Fish
and marine animal fats have some
what the same composition as the ter
restial fats.
