Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Deficiency Disease The aim of this book is to present the reader with a consecutive account of the results of recent experimental researches into the nature of Deficiency Diseases, and to point out the application of these results to their prevention. The subject is one which, as I shall hope to show, concerns both the administrator and the practitioner of medicine. My own investigations, on which this book is mainly based, were originally undertaken in 1914, at a time when I was engaged in a study of the thyroid gland and its disorders. My object then was to ascertain the effects of deficient food on this organ. These studies were interrupted at the outbreak of war, and it was not until my return to India from active service, early in 1918, that I was able to resume them. The scope of the inquiry was then extended to include an investigation of the effects of deficient and ill-balanced foods on all other organs of the body. It was hoped that, in the course of such an inquiry, facts might emerge which would not only explain some of the manifestations of deficiency disease, but throw light also on problems relating to the place of the endocrine glands in the human economy. The methods of study adopted were experimental, gravimetric, and histo-pathological; the last being held to be of especial importance. For however necessary a knowledge of the normal structure and function of the organs of the body may be, it is not less necessary to possess a knowledge of the structural and functional changes induced in them by so fundamental a factor as faulty food. I have thus approached the study of Deficiency Disease from an aspect differing somewhat from that of other students of this subject whose object, as a rule, has been the induction in animals, by means of specially-devised food mixtures, of such maladies as scurvy, beri-beri, rickets, and pellagra. My own method, on the other hand, has been to observe the more general symptomatic and pathological effects of faulty food on the animal body as a whole, and thereby to ascertain what forms of human illness might reasonably be attributed to it. In this way I have been brought to the conclusion that much of the gastro-intestinal disorder so common at the present day, and much of the endocrine disorder probably almost equally common, though less readily recognizable, are attributable to deficient and ill-balanced food.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies on a Nutritional Disease of Poultry Caused by Vitamin a Deficiency Flock No. 2 - Contained 7 84 pullets, about 4 months old. Fifty nine or per cent were diseased. No greens had been fed for a month. About one hundred had died during this period. Greens were fed liberally and the ock entirely recovered in thirty days with a mortality of but nineteen additional birds. Flock No. 3 - Consisted of 1336 hens, 15 months old, 239, or per cent of which had characteristic lesions. These birds had free access to growing corn a short distance from their house, but few of them were getting it. About one hundred and fifty had died within six weeks. Greens were fed to the ock in the yards and within two weeks the number of diseased was reduced to forty. The additional loss from death was but eighteen fowls.

This book was released on 2017-06-29 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition explores thiamine and how its deficiency affects the functions of the brainstem and autonomic nervous system by way of metabolic changes at the level of the mitochondria. Thiamine deficiency derails mitochondrial oxidative metabolism and gives rise to the classic disease of beriberi that, in its early stages, can be considered the prototype for a set of disorders that we now recognize as dysautonomia. This book represents the life’s work of the senior author, Dr. Derrick Lonsdale, and a recent collaboration with his co-author Dr. Chandler Marrs. Presents clinical experience and animal research that have answered questions about thiamine chemistry Demonstrates that the consumption of empty calories can result in clinical effects that lead to misdiagnosis Addresses the biochemical changes induced by vitamin deficiency, particularly that of thiamine

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progressive Medicine, Vol. 3: A Quarterly Digest of Advances, Discoveries, and Improvements in the Medical and Surgical Sciences; September, 1919 The Importance of the Food Factor. It is not generally suspected how largely success will depend upon a judicious diet reform. Meanwhile, science has at last entered upon an analytical study of the varied health giving properties distributed among our vegetable foods. It has long been contended by raw-vegetarians that an adequate proportion of uncooked vegetable food constitutes our best insurance of health, by providing nature's curative foods in their unimpaired efficiency. It is impossible to foretell how far this new path of research may conduct us in identifying fresh etiological types of deficiency disease and of other diseases, and in their prevention and treatment.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scurvy: Past and Present For the past seven years I have been engaged in an investigation of scurvy both in the laboratory and in the clinic, and have treated various aspects of the subject in a large number of articles published in various medical journals. In the course of these studies there has been ample opportunity for a comprehensive review of the widely-scattered literature. N O treatise on scurvy has been published in English since the classical work of Lind in 1772. The time, therefore, seemed opportune to gather into one volume the recent advances in this field and to offer to the clinician, to the hygienist, and to the biological chemist a presentation of the existing status of this important nutritional disease.
