Abstract
This study documents the development of alkalosis in patients returning to caloric intake after a period of starvation and investigates the mechanisms responsible for this metabolic alteration. We studied the acid-base status, bicarbonate reabsorption, acid excretion, and sodium metabolism during fasting and glucose refeeding in 19 patients receiving sodium supplements.
