title: [Physiological equilibration of water, electrolytes and nutrients].
abstract: An account is given of the fundamental mechanisms concerned with the regulation of hunger and thirst, and of the physiological processes involved in the uptake of nutrients, water and electrolytes. Several reflex chains ensure that the organism does not take up too much water and also protect it from excessive loss of water and salt.
