Vitamins in rb fpoples 
Without the Vitamins It Would Be 
Impossible to Maintain Life 




Many charts have been prepared which show 
the amount of vitamins present in different foods. 
Dr. D. J. Quigley has prepared a chart which shows 
the effect of the several vitamins on health and 
ese Among these important properties he 
lists the following: 


i’ 






Vitamin B 
Increases appetite. 
Promotes digestion. 
Promotes growth by stimulating digestive and 
other processes, ‘ 
Protects and stimulates nerve and brain energy 
and protects them from certain diseases. 
Increases quantity and quality of milk of nurs- 
ing mothers. 









If vitamin B is not present in sufficient quanti- 
ties in the daily diet, these results may occur: 
Impairment of appetite and digestion. 
Loss in weight. 
Loss in vigor. 
Constipation, pyorrhea. 
Emaciation. 
Sub-normal temperature. 
Enlargement of adrenals. 
Increase in size and weight of various glands 
of body, including heart, liver, kidneys, stom- 
ach and thyroid. 





Various types of impairments to nervous system 
may also be noted leading to paralysis of groups 
of muscles, neuritis and atrophy of certain lym- 
phoid tissues throughout the body. 
Vitamin C 
Reguiating substance, stimulating and aiding 
digestive processes. 
Builds resistance to disease. 
Lack of vitamin C results in scurvy: 
Reduced hemoglobin content of the blood. 
Reduced secretions. 
Decrease in weight of various organs of body. 
Bleecling gums. 
Swelling and redness of gums. 
Teeth defects. 
Irritability. 
Lack of stamina. 
Retarded growth. 
Low resistance to disease. 
Congestion of internal organs. 
These vitamins of such vital importance to 
health and life are found in their finest form in 
a food which is nature built and which comes to 
the table without man-made changes. This food 
is the apple. Its shape, color, size and chemical 
composition are all due to its hanging in the sum- 
mer sunshine long enough to be a finished product, 
needing nothing ‘done’ to it to make it ready to 
eat and to be enjoyed. It is a balanced, perfectly- 
blended mineral, vitamin, bulk and moisture- 
carrying food which makes it the ‘’King of Fruits.”
