essential for the normal growth

do not furnish energy, but are
essential for Transforming foods

many body processes.
Authorities strongly recon-
mend that a person suspected of
being deficient in vitamins should
see his doctor regularly. There
is always the possibility that
symptoms of a suspected deficien-
cy are really symptoms of an-
other advanced disease.
Since many vitamins are de-
stroyed through cooking, it is
recommended that raw fruits and
vegetables be included in the diet
whenever possible. Of all the
vitamins identified to date, only
vitamin D (Which is obtained in

Needed Vitamins
Held Essential
To Good Health

PEARL RIVER, NY. - You
may be eating three big meals a
day and yet slowly starving your
self for certain vitamins essen
tial to your Well-being.
The amount of food you eat
often has little to do with your
general health. Your diet must
be balanced to include essential
minerals and vitamins if you are
to avoid deficiencies which cause
Gripping and killing diseases.
Contrary to the belief of many,
vitamin deficiencies are not the
exclusive property of any one
group; they are often as preva-
lent among the champagne set as
among some poorer classes. For
example, alcoholics almost vari-
ably suffer from vitamin def
ciencies, particularly those of the
B complex group.
Many factors enter into selec-
ton of poor diet: ignorance of
vitamin content of foods, lack of
money seasonal scarcities, to
mention a few. Many authorities
believe that the average diet in
this country is inadequate in vita
min content, and that supplement
tary vitamins would probably be
helpful to almost anyone.
Within recent years, nutrition
lists have developed multi-vita-
min capsules which can be taken
by anyone as a supplement to
normal diet. These capsules con-
tain as many as a dozen different
vitamins needed at all times by
the body. For example, VI Magma
