Abstract

Prerequisites for the survival of residents of besieged Leningrad: genetically determined human resilience, physiological psycho-emotional stress, nonspecifi c stress adaptation. A description of the trophological and energy status of the body is given in conditions of a significant decrease in the functions of all organs and systems due to atrophy of internal organs during starvation under blockade conditions.
