Experiments Show Milk
Pellagra Preventive

Recent research by DR.. c. A. Ell
vehjem of the University Of Wis
consin to determine the pellagra-
prevention action of certain foods,
notably corn and milk, have proved
that milk rates very high, the Ma
tlonal Dairy council announced. It
has been known since 1925, Dr. El-
vehjem said, that pellagra was due
to the deficiency of an unknown di-
etary factor. In 1887, DR.. Elvehjem
and associates demonstrated that
this unknown factor was nicotine
acid or niacin, one of the B-vita
minis.
Such use of corn as a food has
been associated with pellagra for
more than 200 years. Dr. Elvehjem
conducted his experiments on rats
and dogs with diet consisting
largely of corn grits. In one, the
corn diet was heavily supplemented
by niacin. These animals gained II
grams of weight daily. Another
test group was fed the grits with
only enough niacin added to equal
that present in whole corn. The
weight gain was only 81 grams daily.
Another lot was given a negligible
amount of niacin. On this diet all
the animals died midway through
the experiment, living from 20 to 81
days. The final lot was fed only
mineralized milk. Here the aver
age weight gain was SO grams daily.
This in spite of the fact that milk
is known to be deficient in NICOTINE
acid.
