These results show, at most, only a very slight increase of the protein consumption on the working days. On the days of fasting the increase, as measured by the excretion of urea, was per cent., and with the meat i^ation only per cent.; and even this small increase appears to be due, not to the work but to the greater amount of water drunk and excreted in the urine, since, as we have already learned (p. 135), an increased excretion of water in the urine causes an increase in the protein consumption. Voit f(3und that an increase of 100 grammes of water in the urine caused, in the dog, a plus of grammes of urea. If this relation is applicable to the above experiments, it.
