by Janet Spencer On February 5, 1915, the first experiment sponsored by the Public Health Department in order to prove that some diseases are caused by dietary deficiencies began. Researcher Joseph Goldberger consequently proved that the skin disease pellagra is caused by poor diet. Come along with Tidbits as we consider vitamins!

VITAL AMINES

• In 1911, Polish scientist Casimir Funk theorized that diseases such as beriberi and scurvy were caused by a lack of substances he dubbed “vital amines.” This term was shortened to ‘vitamins.’ He was the first to prove that these illnesses were not caused by exterior factors but were simply caused by dietary deficiency. • Other researchers began isolating these vital amines, calling them simply “vital amine factor A”, “factor B” and “factor C” and so forth. The lack of factor A caused blindness; the lack of factor B caused beriberi; the lack of factor C caused scurvy; the lack of factor D caused rickets; the lack of factor E caused miscarriage, and so on. • At one time there were vitamins A through P. Subsequent research revealed many duplicates, so some were scratched from the list. That’s why there is no vitamin F today. (Continued next page)

• Later researchers found that vitamin B was actually a complex compound, and it was broken down into vitamins B1 through B14. Again, later studies showed some errors. Today we have only B1, B2, B6, and B12. • Today we know there are 13 vitamins: A, B1, B2, B6, B12, C, D, E, K, niacin, pantothenic acid, biotin, and folic acid. In 1933 scientists learned how to manufacture synthetic vitamins in the laboratory.

ELMER’S DISCOVERY

• In the early 1900s, Elmer McCollum was a researcher at the University of Wisconsin. He was trying to discover whether wheat, oats, or corn was the best feed for cows. His method was to feed three different groups of cows the three different feeds and see what happened. The wheat-fed cows went blind. The oatfed cows gave birth to dead calves. Only the corn-fed cows were healthy. • Next McCollum switched to rats. He fed his rats a mixture of protein, carbohydrates, minerals, and fat. Then he made an important discovery: when the source of fat was butter or egg yolk, the rats remained healthy. But when he switched the fat to olive oil, the rats died. Obviously there was something essential in butter and eggs that was not present in olive oil. After much laboratory research, the substance was identified, extracted, and named vitamin A.

Tools 4 life By DR. Jim coyle

Clear the Way

In days before heavy machinery marathons weren’t run on smooth paths but over roads filled with obstacles. These stumbling blocks could cause the runner to slip and fall and prevent them from finishing the race. We are going to look at three boulders that must be removed as we run our lifelong marathon. “Build, build! Make a road! Clear the way, remove the rocks from the road my people will travel.” Isaiah 57:1314 Three rocks we focus on are; 1) Unhealthy relationships - In the marathon of life we get to choose our traveling companions. Become more selective. Here are three things to look for: 1) shared values, 2) an understanding of your God-given purpose, and 3) strength. 2) Unforgiveness - Don’t play God!! You’ve received mercy so pass it on. When something or someone triggers resentment, stop and pray, “Father I forgive them as you have forgiven me. I ask you to bless them as you have blessed me.” 3) Divided Heart - An undivided (decided) heart is the result of a made-up mind. Commit to a God-given purpose that will outlive you. Pour your life marathon into something that will benefit the Kingdom more than yourself. Here are some tools to apply to your everyday life: • Run your marathon one day at a time • Remove the rocks in your path • Stay in training • Keep moving

VITAMIN A

• The daily allotment of vitamin A is about .0001 ounce. Vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat soluble and collect in the body tissues rather than being flushed out. These are the vitamins that can be overdosed. Beef liver contains 60,000 IU of vitamin A in four ounces; polar bear liver, however, is about ten times richer than that.

VITAMIN D

• Vitamin D acts as a catalyst to produce proteins that allow minerals to move through the intestinal membrane and into the cells. Without it, the disease called rickets causes the bones to soften and bend. • The misperception persists that vitamin D is present in sunlight. Actually, vitamin D cannot be formed unless it is activated by ultraviolet light. Therefore, sunlight does not contain vitamin D; it only activates it. Cats and dogs, when they lick their fur, ingest body fat that has been irradiated on their fur. This serves as a source of vitamin D. • One school of thought holds that black skin evolved as protection against sunburn and skin cancer. However, other scientists feel that white skin evolved as a measure to allow enough ultraviolet light to pass through the skin in cold climates where people wear heavy clothing and their exposure to sunlight is limited.

VITAMIN E

• Vitamin E is necessary for reproduction. Many people have concluded that if a little vitamin E is necessary to reproduce, then a lot of vitamin E should really make you a Casanova. But vitamin E’s role in reproduction is merely to prevent miscarriage and has nothing to do with sex or conception.

VITAMIN K

• Vitamin B12 is necessary for the formation of red corpuscles in the blood, for normal growth, and for maintenance of healthy nerve cells. You only need .00000014 ounce of vitamin B12 each day, but a lack of that tiny amount can be fatal. It is impossible to get B12 on a strict vegetarian diet. • Scientists wondered why Hindus, who are strict vegetarians, never suffered from vitamin deficiencies while living in India, but would come down with B12 deficiencies if they emigrated to Britain. It was found that their diet in India inadvertently contained insect parts that became mixed in with the food. But in Britain, where food control laws were stricter, there were fewer microscopic insect fragments in the food. Insects are rich in vitamins, including B12.

• Beriberi was a perplexing disease, causing fatigue, then death. In 1894 Christiaan Eijkman began to study it. Certain it was caused by a bacteria or virus, he tried unsuccessfully to infect chickens. One group of chickens received injections of the beriberi bacteria, and another group did not. Suddenly, both groups came down with beriberi. Just as suddenly, both groups recovered. He was mystified.

• He spoke with the man who fed them. Back then, brown rice was undesirable, and white rice (which has the hull and the germ polished off) was desirable. Chickens were normally fed undesirable brown rice. But when the supply of brown rice ran out, the chickens received white rice, and they got sick. When more brown rice arrived, they recovered. Eijkman concluded that white rice contains a poison which brown rice neutralizes, not realizing that brown rice contains vitamin B1 (also called thiamine) which wasn’t isolated and named until 1926.

Noteworthy Inventions

NIACIN

• “Pellagra” is Italian for “rough skin.” It’s a disease whose first symptom is irritated skin, and it is eventually fatal if left untreated. • In the early 1900s pellagra was rampant in the deep south, and the Public Health Service hired Joseph Goldberger to find out why. His first discovery was that it was common among prisoners, children in orphanages, and patients in mental institutions. Yet he never found a single doctor, nurse, nun, or prison guard who also had the disease. • Theory held that pellagra was a contagious disease, but Goldberger became convinced that it was tied to the diet. In the Methodist Orphan Asylum in Jackson, Mississippi, one third of the children suffered from pellagra. However, all of the victims were between the ages of 6 and 12. He discovered that only the children between the ages of 1 and 5 were given milk to drink. And only the children over the age of 12 were given much meat. Between the age of 6 and 12, the orphans received no milk and little meat. They survived on grits, mush, and sow belly. And they got pellagra. • Goldberger convinced the orphanage to change the children’s diet, giving them lots of meat, milk, and eggs. Pellagra disappeared. • Wanting to be thorough, Goldberger decided that if he could cure the disease with proper diet, he ought to be able to induce it through faulty diet. At the prison farm near Jackson, he signed up 12 prisoners who were willing to go on a special diet in exchange for a pardon at the end of six months. He fed them biscuits, mush, grits, gravy, syrup, corn bread, rice, coffee and sugar. After a few weeks, the men started showing the signs of pellagra. • Goldberger went one step further to prove pellagra was not contagious. He collected 16 volunteers, including his wife and himself, who did everything to contract pellagra through injections and secretions and bodily contact with sufferers. No one got the disease. • Goldberger spent the rest of his life in the laboratory trying to discover what factor meat, milk, and egg yolks had in common. By 1926, Goldberger established that a small amount of brewer’s yeast prevented pellagra, yet he never knew why. • It was Conrad Elvehjem who discovered that pellagra is caused by a lack of the B vitamin niacin. He presented his findings in 1937, eight years after Joseph Goldberger’s death. • Goldberger is remembered as the “unsung hero of American clinical epidemiology.” Although he was nominated five times for the Nobel Prize, his discovery proved socially and politically unacceptable, and he made little progress in gaining support for the treating of pellagra during his lifetime. • Between 1906 and 1940 more than 3 million Americans were affected by pellagra with more than 100,000 deaths, yet the epidemic resolved itself after authorities decided to add niacin to bread in 1938. • Pellagra is still found today, especially in third world countries that depend primarily upon corn for their sustenance. Refugees and prisoners receiving inadequate food commonly suffer from it. Alcoholism and drug addiction can also cause pellagra, as can intestinal disorders. Untreated, the disease can kill within four or five years. • Besides meat and eggs, niacin is found in avocados, dates, tomatoes, leafy vegetables, broccoli, sweet potatoes, asparagus, nuts, whole grains, and legumes.

A-1 Home Healthcare Proudly Presents

Senior News Line by Matilda Charles

Experience Boosts Decision-Making At some point in our lives as seniors, someone is going to want to step in and help us with decisions, some of them financial. Perhaps we arrive at a magic number in age, and based on that number, it’s assumed we need help, especially if there’s been some cognitive decline. But it’s not necessarily so. Researchers at the Columbia Business School looked at how cognitive decline and age pair with making sound decisions. They wondered whether dealing with complex decisions for retirement plans, pensions and wealth would be difficult past a certain age. One of the measurements they used, along with tests on decision-making and cognitive ability, was the everyday credit score to determine whether age alone had a bearing on it. Credit scores are one form of proof of a long period of responsible financial decisions, as well as an understanding of the benefits that come from having a high score. One test given to the participants involved the question of whether to first pay off credit cards with higher interest rates or cards with lower balances. Another test involved selecting healthcare plans from a list of choices. The end result was that accumulated lifetime knowledge and experience (crystallized intelligence) has more weight than the ability to process new information and to think logically (fluid intelligence). A co-author of the study said, “An alternative route to making sound financial decisions comes from experience -- and that improves with age.” At the same time, they propose that policymakers or those who serve seniors allow fewer choices that rely on fluid (new) information and lean more heavily toward the intelligence gained over a lifetime. The bottom line for us is not to give up control too quickly. The age-related Bert and Ethel got married ability yesterday.
