    The vitamin A story : lifting the shadow of death (2012)
    Basel ; : Karger,

    almafu_9959076715302883
    Umfang: 1 online resource (224 p.)
    ISBN: 3-318-02189-X
    Serie: World Review of Nutrition and Dietetics ; v.104
    Inhalt: This book shows how vitamin A deficiency before the vitamin was known to scientists affected millions of people throughout history. It is a story of sailors and soldiers, penniless mothers, orphaned infants, and young children left susceptible to blindness and fatal infections. We also glimpse the fortunate ones who, with ample vitamin A-rich food, escaped this elusive stalker. Why were people going blind and dying? To unravel this puzzle, scientists around the world competed over the course of a century. Their persistent efforts led to the identification of vitamin A and its essential role in health. As a primary focus of today's international public health efforts, vitamin A has saved hundreds of thousands of lives. But, we discover, they could save many more were it not for obstacles erected by political and ideological zealots who lack a historical perspective of the problem.
