A record of every major development in vitamin therapy and an explanation of the function of the principal vitamins, including the vital B-complex group. Much of the indigestion, constipation and chronic fatigue experienced in Australia, USA and Europe is due to a deficiency of the all-important thiamine.The facts about vitamins to be found here are not merely of academic interest - they are essential for the maintenance of health in an increasingly polluted and drug-ridden world. Many people are now aware that smoking depletes the body's supply of vitamin C, but few realize that the ingestion of aspirin, the barbiturates, and other drugs, produces the same effect.This book gives sources of vitamins - whether found in meat, fish, vegetables or fruit - thus enabling the reader to plan a healthful dietary based on natural, vitamin-rich foods. Where vitamin deficiency has existed for a long time the sufferer is advised to first restore his health with therapeutic doses of multi-vitamin capsules.
