We thank Wollstonecroft et al. for supporting the evidence that not all calories are equal (1). We found that the bioavailability of calories from lean beef (Bos taurus) and sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) increased with food processing (2). For both foods, cooking had a larger impact on bioavailability than pounding, and when these processing methods were applied in combination, cooking improved a pounded diet whereas pounding did not improve a cooked diet. Our findings emphasize that the biochemical assays used in the production of modern nutrition labels do not fully account for the energetic significance of food processing. Such assays...

Additional Information
The time required to recover from cold-induced paralysis (chill-coma) is a common measure of insect cold tolerance used to test central questions in thermal biology and predict the effects of climate change on insect populations. The onset of chill-coma in the fall field cricket (Gryllus pe ... more
Forecasting seasonal outbreaks of influenza [Applied Mathematics]
Influenza recurs seasonally in temperate regions of the world; however, our ability to predict the timing, duration, and magnitude of local seasonal outbreaks of influenza remains limited. Here we develop a framework for initializing real-time forecasts of seasonal influenza outbreaks, usin ... more
Undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinomas (NPCs) are commonly present with latent EBV infection. However, events regulating EBV infection at early stages of the disease and the role of EBV in disease pathogenesis are largely undefined. Genetic alterations leading to activation of cyclin D1 ... more
