text: Although nowadays we distinguish the symptoms of true scurvy (now known to be produced specifically by vitamin C deficiency) from conditions such as beriberi (thiamin deficiency, associated with edema of the lower limbs), vitamin A deficiency (associated with night-blindness and corneal lesions), and rickets (vitamin D deficiency caused mainly by a lack of exposure to sunlight in children), in the older literature these conditions were often not recognized as distinct.
