sration can be given in capsules
taken before, during and after
meals. He also found that many
OF the patients were using diets
composed principally of white
bread, hominy. polished rice,
fat meats and a few vege-
tables.
THE dietary deficiency, of

and DR.. Allison recommended
that whole wheat bread, yellow
hon1iny, yellow cornmeal and
unpublished rice be included in
the diet. AS soon as the
patients showed sufficient i'm
provement, the vitamin prep
