title: New approaches to raw meat processing as a result of recent studies of food exotrophia.
abstract: The general supremacy of classical theory of balanced nutrition entailed the tendency to remove ballast substances from food products. However, a new theory of adequate nutrition grounded a significant role of these substances in human ration. On the basis of experimental observations and theoretical theses of a new theory it was determined that animal connective tissue elements can be considered as ballast substances, that are physiologically useful for human organism. Proceeding from this a conclusion was made that a definite content of connective tissue in meat products does not reduce, but raises their nutritional value. A new level of knowledge made it possible to propose the modified method of integral score for food products nutritional value estimation.
