much of our vitamin diet may have been pure waste.
This revealed recently in the Journal of the Amer
can Medical Association which reported study of the
benefits of vitamins In the study, made at Duke unver
several groups of volunteers fed normal Amer
lean diet plus pills Some of the pills contained vitamins
while others just dummies And the report states
when the concluded those who received the
dummy vitamins just healthy those who re-
ceived real vitamins
The report points that vamns of the
utmost Importance to those who deficient in
them, but questions whether there is any jusfca-
ton in the sale of vitamins those who do have
deficiency
Although the report may be little disturbing, we
recommend taking with grain of salt For there
Indication that vitamn treatments hurt usand there is
always the possibility that may have deficiency which
can be helped Too many of have faith in vitamns
