Biochemistry And Backwardness
Sir, —Now we know that backwardness in children can be caused by chemical imbalance will it also be found that deficiences in trace elements in the pregnant mother may account for those in babies? Nutritional lacks account for changes in animal body content, wool, hide production etc., and soil contents are varied in experiments for successful performance of metabolism Sheep and cow mentality is not usually under observation for backward behaviour, but are there not modern researchers in biochemistry who attempt remedial programmes for adults suffering from various ills? Vitamins and certain salts are protection against troubles likely from faulty food supplies, and even soil mineral imbalance. A petition in England seeks recognition for social security purposes of biochemical provision and use. Yours, etc.,
ADVANCES. February 1, 1966.
