The figures for income and 

outgo of energy require a word 
of explanation. A distinction is here made between the total* 
income, which is represented 
by the potential energy of the 
food, and the net* income, which is the energy of the material 
actually oxidized in the body. 
This energy of net inéome is 
represented by the potential energy of the available nutrients 

* The terms ‘‘total”’ and ‘net’? here applied to income and outgo of material and 
energy are used for present convenience and may in future reports be replaced by 
more appropriate expressions.
