Dr. Linus Pauling.
I had the privilage of listening to Dr. Linus Pauling
tonight at 7.00 Pm on the Malone show. He talked of many
things including Vitamin C.
I take vitamin C powder as well as a tablet by Eli
Lilly Co. of B. Complex and Vitamin C.
I take vitamins and advise vitamins but always in
combination with a suitable life style. No use giving
B.Complex and Vitamin C to an alcoholic. It may make him
feel better so he then he drinks more.
I have had wonderful things happen with the use of
Lillys Becotin T. It is B. Complex and vitamin C.
I do not know which was the miracle worker.
Presently I order Vitamin C powder along with the
Becotin . I also suggest Cod Liver Oil. Few people will
take it. I never miss taking it. My brother,Henry O.Little
M.D. an ophthalmologist, practices in Hudson N.Y He is a
great believer in COD LIVER OIL. For some years he has
imported it from Iceland. He considers their product , the
best available. He is also very much against smoking.
He imports two tons of Cod Liver Oil at a time. It comes in
litre cans. His treatment has been very successful.
I began my practice in Hudson in l942. Later my brother
joined me. In l960 I came to Palo Alto with my sister.
For many years i was with the EENT dept of the V.A. Hospital.
This area is a world unto itself. The people here appear to
have special stresses.
Back East I rarely saw a patient who had become
nearsighted as a adult. Here it was very common. I began
to call it the California disease.
