Men in olden times should not have suffered from deficiency
diseases for vitamins abound in an endless variety of foods. And if absent in
one, they were almost certainly to be found in another. Moreover they lived out
in the fresh air and light. So their bodies should not have lack of vitamin D.
But on long voyages and in countries in the far North. Where green stuff is scarce in winter. They
suffered from the oldest of diseases SCURVY. If a diet lacks fresh fruit and
vegetables, Scurvy will develop after 4-6 months. It was once thought to
be a skin disease. And people shield
away from scurvy victims, as if they were lepers. For it affects the skin, the
walls of the blood vessels, gums, teeth and bones. And makes its presence felt
gradually and insidiously.
First there is a feeling of intense fatigue, which is not
relieved by sleep. Then headaches and a chronic declination for work. Nature
paints dark rings under the eyes. Joints and limbs start to ache and swell.
Which symptoms are sometimes mistaken for rheumatism. Tiny hemorrhage spots
appear round the hair follicles on the legs. Or where there is friction from
clothing. If limbs are pressed they bruise. Later muscles bleed, the nose
bleeds and limbs pain. When moved because of the weakness of the walls of the
blood vessels. Gums become soft and spongy and resemble fungous growths. They
ulcerate and bleed. The breath grows foetid and eventually teeth loosen. So
that they can be plucked out by the fingers. Bones become brittle and fracture
easily. Finally unless there is a drastic alteration in diet. Death overcomes
the victim.
Vitamin C produces and maintains inter-cellular material
which cements individual cells into tissue or organ functioning as a whole.
Without vitamin C, the entire body function is affected. The blood vessels
become porous and let the blood through. Muscles weaken and may even grow
paralyzed. Mineral salts drains away from bones and teeth. Cartilages grow so
weak that they won’t hold the joints together. The walls of the lungs cave in.
anemia develops in the cells of the bone marrow. Tissues degenerate and wounds
refuse to heal.
The dentine or bony materials between the root canals and
outside enamel of the teeth is produced by cells called odontoblasts. If the
body lacks vitamin C these shorten and become separate from the dentine by
fluid. The dentine becomes porous and in the case of children. The teeth refuse
to grow. They develop fissures and cracks which house decay.
Gums become spongy, but if treated with 50mg of vitamin C
the condition will be cleared up within two weeks. Unfortunately vitamin C is
the most unstable of all vitamins and is destroyed by heat, light and exposure
to air
It is on these note, that we Nnendu Manufacturing Company
came up with a natural vitamin C
formula. From scientifically
certified organic herbs.
