"To limit these nutrients" means to reduce or control the amount of specific substances that are considered beneficial or necessary for the body.
Full definition
The researchers then confirmed that their results were due to competition among parasites and not some other effect
of limiting the nutrient.
Most bacteria, however, reside in tissue regions
with limited nutrient supply, in which they grow only slowly.
It has, however, a very
limited nutrient profile, because omega 3 acids, antioxidants, vitamins and trace minerals are missing altogether.
Either way, the trick to
limiting nutrient loss is using fast cooking methods, so microwave your spinach or steam it briefly on the stove.
Rules limiting nutrient runoff from farms and wastewater treatment plants helped to decrease nitrogen concentrations in the bay by 23 percent since 1984.
While phytoplankton's ability to adjust their physiology to exploit
limited nutrients in the open ocean has been well documented, little is understood about how variations in microbial biodiversity — the number and variety of marine microbes — affects global ocean function.
Because this maybe particularly important where nitrogen is believed to be the
most limiting nutrient to plants (e.g. forests such as those here in California), let me elaborate.
At present, in human surveys, the underlying mechanisms are limited and sex - specific investigations are urgently needed for epigenetic effects
on limited nutrient supplies, as well as food overload, environmental factors, and hyperglycemia.
But when drug - treated mice were infected with both sensitive and resistant parasites,
limiting the nutrient stopped resistant parasites from growing at all — even when resistant parasites were initially present at far greater numbers than when they typically first appear in a host.
For many microbes, the expansion of growing cell groups toward a source of
limiting nutrients tends to promote the spontaneous segregation of different strains due to genetic drift along the advancing group front [36].
Nitrogen is both the most
important limiting nutrient on Earth and a dangerous pollutant, so it is important to understand the natural controls on its supply and demand.
«Sugar is natural, but if it's the first ingredient, the food will most likely contain a large amount of calories with
limited nutrient value,» says Erin Palinski, RD, CDE, LDN, CPT, author of Belly Fat Diet for Dummies.
Over the course of human evolution, our biochemistry has adapted to these periods of semi-starvation, giving rise to an enzymatic orchestra that allows us to stay alive
despite limited nutrient availability.
As both are growth -
limiting nutrients in coastal seas, the nitrogen pollution may have ecological ramifications, favouring organisms that require a lot of nitrogen and little phosphorous.
They confirmed the prediction made over 60 years ago by Noble - prize - winning biologist Jacques Monod regarding changes in microbial growth rates
with limited nutrients (the Monod equation).
Poor eating habits usually come up because of continuous snacking and this will
limit the nutrients the baby is getting from food.
What's not okay is losing weight because you're intentionally cutting calories (and, as a result,
limiting nutrients).
As communities of bacteria continue to grow and form into a biofilm, however, they can become overcrowded, creating an environment where each cell has to compete for
limited nutrients and oxygen to survive.
For this particular microbe,
the limiting nutrient is nickel — which, new analysis of sediments in China showed, increased dramatically following the Siberian eruptions (which were already known to have produced some of the world's largest deposits of nickel).
«Today, phosphorus is also
a limiting nutrient for the oceans, but the input of the phosphorus and iron into the ocean from these volcanoes has major paleoenvironmental and ecological consequences.»
According to a recent article published in the American Journal of Botany, scientists have identified a mechanism enabling a native tree species access to
this limiting nutrient.
«Diversity of microbial growth strategies in
a limited nutrient world.»
The arsenic was not passed through the milk, but
it limited the nutrients it contained (PLoS One, DOI: 10.1371 / journal.pone.0038249).
But a new study finds that
limited nutrients may keep plants from growing as fast as scientists thought, leading to more global warming than some climate models had predicted by 2100.
The arsenic was not passed to the pups through their mother's milk, but
it limited the nutrients that the milk contained.
In chemostats, the organisms were grown at the same rate so the level of nutritional stress was the same, even though
the limiting nutrient was different.
It has been shown that iron (Fe) can be
the limiting nutrient for phytoplankton growth, in particular, in the HNLC (High Nutrient Low Chlorophyll) regions.
Meanwhile, in developing nations where synthetic fertilizers are unaffordable, nitrogen is often
the limiting nutrient for growing crops, leading to poor yields.
Because of the extra demands they put on their bodies, it is important for athletes to consume a diet rich in plant - based foods, high quality (ideally grass - fed) protein sources, plenty of healthy fats, and
limit nutrient - deficient and inflammation - causing foods (foods that contain a lot of sugar, trans fats, or too many omega 6 fats — found in vegetable oils, soy oils, etc).
In fact experiments show CO2 is often
a limiting nutrient.
