Amino Acids And Vitam ins Vital To Your Good Hea Ith

fry Herman H. Bundaeen, M.D. There are many t Blags which eater into tin- normal nutrition of the human body Among the most important of these are the pro tein foods such as meat, milk, eggs whole-grain cereals. The proteins in these food* ate broken down in the body into chemical substances known as amino acids and three amino acids are then utilised in rebuild lag worn out tissues and in building new tissue* in the growing child. Pretense of Vitamins According to Dr. Mas Jacobson oi New York, there is some rm lalionship between the use of amino acids by the body and the presence of various vitamins. Because of this possibility, a study was carried out using a combination of vitamins and amino acids which was given to the patients Ixrth by mouth and by injection under the skin. About IWO patients were treated tor various diseases. An aver* age of eight to ten inject ions was found necessary for success although in most Instances, according to Dr. Jacobson a marked improvement was noted after the first few injgi ttons. Treatment by mouth wap given either separately or combined with the iuJcsnUons and was cuntlaued after tfrg UijecUons were stopped. Physical exhaustion Th*' first patients treated were suffering from exhaustion coming from physical strain, prolonged convalescence or recovery from Until nt I*4, operetloas. The preparation con-
