Diseases caused by lack of vitamins
Christine Skibola and Martyn Smith of Berkeley found one gene involved in a person’s susceptibility to leukemia helps process folate. “Our results suggest that folate metabolism may play a key role in the development of acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL),” they wrote. Ames’s team has shown in past studies that cells from people deficient in folic [...]
Vitamins and supplements – A Curious Post
I’m curious on everybody’s suggestions on vitamins and supplements. In my pre running life I was a strong believer that eating a varied well balanced, healthy diet would deliver all the necessary nutrients to my body. However I don’t necessarily believe that is true for someone who is running 20> miles a week. Beside the [...]
How do you feed vitmains to your children?
Certainly if you are in an at-risk population (dark skinned, little sun exposure) go ahead and give the vitamin D supplement! Even if you’re concerned, go ahead and give a vitamin D supplement, it isn’t going to hurt IMO. But breastfeeding does not in any way lead to rickets. Rickets occurs when the body does [...]
Factors leading deficiency of vitamins
I found out a lot about vitamins and how important they are, how a lack of them can have such a drastic effect on every aspect of health, and how easy it can be to miss out on vitamins in food, also how difficult it is to get sufficient vitamins without taking a supplement. How [...]

Vitamins for a 1 month old baby
My youngest is 1 month old, and he is both bottle and breast fed (I have difficulty making enough milk). I took him to the Dr. today and he’s doing very well.But the Dr. gave me a script for vitamins for him. Is that really necessary?? My older son (who was strictly bottle fed) never [...]
Information about spray vitamins
I am new to this ng but I have to share something very wonderful that I have become a part of spray vitamins. Can you imagine never having to swallow those pills again or having stomach upset or just never having them sit there in your throat again? Did you know that you only receive [...]
Things to remember about vitamins
Some rare people may have a need for somewhat higher amounts due to metabolic mutations, but a reliable rule is that anyone who claims that RDAs are too low for any but a tiny, tiny subset of people is either a quack or has been too gullible when faced with a quack. That goes at [...]
Providing B vitamins for baby
I used to read where adding B vitamins was “off limits” because the babs feeds on B vitamins. I have nothing to support this other than seeing it discussed. I have also read the protocol for vitamins and supplements. If someone has a “user FRIENDLY” site of lyme, vitamins & supplements I would appreciate it [...]

How do vitamins work in the body?
Does anybody know the specifics of how the vitamins work? After reading about the DV genes at the links that were posted in another thread, I’m starting to think that they increase the pokemon’s genetic values for attack, defense, ect, instead of just raising the stats directly. I suspect this because I used a bunch [...]
Is it necessary to take vitamins on a regular basis?
Although I take quite a bit of Vitamins and Supplements, I don’t particularly take any of them just because I am running. I agree with your earlier belief about a well-balanced diet and am puzzled that you feel you can’t eat enough “standard food” to power you 20 miles. I average 35+ miles and find [...]
Multi vitamins analyse with HPLC
Most analysis of vitamins describe the assay of one vitamin in a product(animal feed). I have a product that has at least 3 vitamins (A,D and E)and maybe B,C and K. So I want to have a system which can detect these all in one. If I want to detect all I must have a [...]
How essential are vitamins to your body
It is useful to know what healthy individuals require to not have deficiency symptoms. But my point is that RDA is a minimum amount and does not represent an optimum amount. There are many mechanisms where the body tries to regulates its activities so that stored nutrient levels do not fall too low. Therefore just [...]
