title: [Caloric nutritional evaluation of the menu served to the university community of the Universidad Nacional de San Luis, Republica Argentina].
abstract: We have analysed the meals for lunch and dinner at the University cafeteria, during one Winter week (June through September); in this season the menus are repeated every week round. A percentage analysis (humidity, ashes, lipids, protein, raw fiber, and nitrogen-free extract) was carried out on the sample, which were appropriately processed, thus allowing us to know the nutrients amount and caloric value of each meal. When examining both the formulas ingredients and the technique applied to the preparation of the meals, it was found that they have the best cooking quality, and also that their amount is sufficient (see tables). As to the meals nutrients, the results allow us to conclude that the diets are hypercaloric as well as hypoproteic, with a preponderance of proteins of animal origin.
