See book keywords and concepts |  In 1912, Casimir Funk introduced his theory that scurvy is due to the absence of an "anti-scurvy vitamine." This factor was named vitamin C in the 1920s. Albeit Szent-Gyorgyi isolated a substance he called hexuronic acid because it is a six-carbon compound. Hexuronic acid was later renamed ascorbic acid. Albert Szent-Gyorgyi was awarded the 1937 Nobel Prize in medicine for the discovery of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and its role in preventing scurvy. By 1932, vitamin C was isolated and identified, complete with photographs of the vitamin C crystals. |

ACTIONS AND PHARMACOLOGY
COMPOUNDS
Phospholipids (45-60%): in particular phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol
Fatty oil (30-35%)
EFFECTS
Phospholipids are degraded to lyso-phosphatidylcholine in the intestine and absorbed primarily in this form. In the gut wall, phospholipids are in part re-synthesized, then circulated through the lymphatic system. In part the resynthesized phosphatidylcholine is processed in the liver to form fatty acids, choline, and glycerine-3-phosphate. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Funk termed his discovery a "vitamine." What Funk actually isolated, however, turned out to be the antipellagra vitamin, or niacin (vitamin B3). In 1926, pure thiamine, the true anti-beriberi vitamin, was isolated by two Dutch scientists, Barend Jansen and W. F. Donath, working in Java. Today, white rice is often enriched with thiamine and other nutrients lost during milling. However, beriberi is still prevalent in many parts of Asia, where white rice supplies up to 80 percent of the total calories. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Under the current listing, sulfiting ingredients may be used as preservatives in any food, except meat or food that is a recognized source of vitamine Bi (thiamine). The FDA prohibits the use of sulfites in foods that are important sources of vitamine Bi, such as enriched flour, because sulfites destroy the nutrient. You have to be cautious about "prepared" products in general if you are sulfite-sensitive. For example, lemon juice from a lemon may be fine, but bottled lemon juice may contain sodium bisulfite. |

See book keywords and concepts |  He took the Latin word for life, vita, and combined it with the word amine— amino acids are components of protoplasm—and came up with the word vitamine. The anti-beriberi vitamine. Had he stuck to the Anglo-Saxon fashion of naming his discovery after himself—as doctors name symptoms— he might have christened this mysterious life force the funky funkies and spared this crazy world a lot of confusion.
The next step occurred at the University of Wisconsin in 1912. German chemists had discovered the balanced diet: proteins, carbohydrates, fats, salts, and water. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Because the substance was an amine and because he thought the substance had a vital dietary function, he named it vitamine. As it turned out, Funk's vitamine was not the anti-beriberi factor which was subsequently isolated and called thiamin or vitamin Bi. Nevertheless, Funk did coin the term vitamin and the concept that vitamins are essential dietary factors.
Thiamin is a water-soluble vitamin. Structurally it consists of a substituted pyrimidine ring joined by a methylene bridge to a substituted thiazole ring. The free vitamin is a base. |
Bill Gottlieb
See book keywords and concepts |  In 1912, the term vitamine was coined (for "vital amine," amine being a kind of chemical structure; a few years later, the e was dropped when it was learned that some vitamins had different chemical structures and were not amines). By 1925, vitamin supplements were on the market
Watch What You're Taking
Of course, too much of a good thing can be bad—and very dangerous. Some vitamins shouldn't be taken in supplement form unless you are under a doctor's care for a specific problem. |

See book keywords and concepts |  It was found to be an amine (containing nitrogen), and thus was termed "vitamine"—that is "amine essential for life." In later years other vitamins were discovered that were not amines, and the term was converted to our current one, vitamin.
Back in the 1500s records were first made of nature's vitamin experiments and vitamin deficiency disease. The British Royal Navy at the time of Queen Elizabeth was fed a diet of dried or salted meat or fish, biscuits, butter, cheese, and beer. Many men developed a serious and painful disease, and more than 10,000 died during a period of 20 years. |

See book keywords and concepts |  After hearing about vitamine E, I decided to try it. I began dropping vitamin E oil under the nail every day for several weeks, and I started to notice a nice healthy color in the nail (not the hard brittle look it had). Well, it took almost a year, but today that nail has completely attached itself to my toe and now is as flat and pretty as any normal nail."

In 1906, Frederick Hopkins of Cambridge University had called for more research on vitamins: ". . .This much is certain: every food contains trifling amounts of substances from which the body benefits. ..." If that statement is accepted as accurate, it then follows that sugar is not a food.
