Excerpt from Experimental Rickets: The Effect of Cereals and Their Interaction With Other Factors of Diet and Environment in Producing Rickets Cereals have long formed the major part of the diet of man. From a physiological standpoint they have been considered almost entirely as sources of energy, of carbohydrate and of protein, and on this basis their dietetic value has been appraised. It is true that the presence of vitamin B in natural cereals, and its loss in the manufacture of many products, is an important fact to be reckoned with in any consideration of the relative nutritional value of different preparations of a cereal. For instance, the relative dietetic value of polished and unpolished rice centres round the vitamin B content of these foods. These observations have not, however, led to the belief that there are important differences in food value among the natural cereals themselves, except such as can be explained in terms of their known physiological constituents. The experimental work described here demonstrates that various common cereals have different effects on the growing animal, and that these differences cannot yet be explained on the basis of their known constituents.
