1 .
What is fed upon ;
that which goes to support life by being received within ,
and assimilated by ,
the organism of an animal or a plant ;
nutriment ;

[
1913 Webster ]
Note :
In a physiological sense ,
true aliment is to be distinguished as that portion of the food which is capable of being digested and absorbed into the blood ,
thus furnishing nourishment ,
in distinction from the indigestible matter which passes out through the alimentary canal as f [

[
1913 Webster ]
Note :
Foods are divided into two main groups :
nitrogenous ,
or proteid ,
foods ,
i .
e .,
those which contain nitrogen ,
and nonnitrogenous ,
i .
e .,
those which do not contain nitrogen .
The latter group embraces the fats and carbohydrates ,
which collectively are sometimes termed heat producers or respiratory foods ,
since by oxidation in the body they especially subserve the production of heat .
The proteids ,
on the other hand ,
are known as plastic foods or tissue formers ,
since no tissue can be formed without them .
These latter terms ,
however ,
are misleading ,
since proteid foods may also give rise to heat both directly and indirectly ,
and the fats and carbohydrates are useful in other ways than in producing heat .
[
1913 Webster ]
2 .
Anything that instructs the intellect ,
excites the feelings ,
or molds habits of character ;
that which nourishes .
