"In the 1930s a group of Japanese researchers led by Dr. W.
Nakahara isolated two distinct factors that were reported to be
essential for lactation in the rat. They coined the term "Vitamin L"
for these factors and proposed that they were essential for proper
metabolism in humans. Subsequent studies indicated that factor L(1),
extracted from bovine (calf) liver, was anthranilic acid. The second
factor, L(2), was extracted from yeast and shown to be
adenylthiomethylpentose. Later studies have confirmed that neither
of these factors are essential to lactation either in rats or in
humans. There are no proven symptoms from dietary deficiencies of
either of these biochemicals."
So Vitamin L has no more to do with racial differentiation than
this thread has to do with IndoEuropean linguistics. Can we drop it
please?
