Alcoholic Beverage Preferences and Self-Reported Problems in Switzerland

The study examined sex-specific changes in beverage preference by age group in three Swiss linguistic regions, the relationship between preference and self-reporting of alcohol-related problems, and sociocultural and linguistic influences. A sample of 953, interviewed in 1987, was reinterviewed in 1995. Preference differed by region and remained relatively stable. Only young adults changed, adopting typical regional patterns. Self-reporting, and remission and incidence of problem-reporting, were related to total intake and to changes in total intake, but only at younger ages to changes in preference. Beverage preference has little value as a predictor of self-reporting of problems.

Effects of supplemental degradable intake protein on intake and digestibility of low-quality brome hay (1998)

The effects of increasing levels of degradable weight and assigned to one of four increasing intake protein (DIP) on intake and digestion of levels of DIP. Each steer was offered brome hay low-quality brome hay were evaluated using 16 at 130% of the average voluntary intake for the ruminally fistulated beef steers. Trends were preceding 5-day period. Supplemental DIP evident for small, positive changes in total intake (sodium caseinate; 91.6% CP, 100% DIP) was and digestion with increasing level of DIP ruminally infused at 7:00 AM, immediately prior supplementation. As a result, total digestible to feeding forage to provide .041, .082, and OM intake (TDOMI) increased with DIP .124% BW/day; controls received none. The supplement-ation but tended to plateau below forage contained 65.4% NDF and 5.9% CP, of the highest supplementation level. which 49% was DIP. DIP was estimated using
