Vitamin Deficiencies: Scurvy, Pellagra, Beriberi, & More | 1944

Nutritional deficiencies of the severity demonstrated in this film are rarely seen today.
Xerosis conjuntivae, riboflavin deficiency also feature.
Quality of film through the ages differs wildly (this one for example, being of great quality both in audio and video). I am not certain if it has more to do with type of film used, or the storage conditions

God. For some reason, watching this makes me feel like a peasant in the dark ages staring at the ruins of a beautiful Roman aqueduct.

What a great and highly informative and hugely beneficial video❗Would you be so kind as to share the full length version if possible? I'm really intrigued and wish to see the full conference - I'm sure everyone here is as well. Thank you ever so much.

I admire those in the medical field. As soon as I see clips displaying symptoms, I want to look away!

One of the reasons why they started adding niacin to white bread.

These conditions still exist, but as a secondary symptom, no ?

[@MarcLL]

imagine looking in your medical notes and seeing "scrotal tongue" lol

5:16 "Cirrhosis conjunctiva"?

1:58 Tom Hanks is everywhere!

[@korruptnovellst4751]

Do they still make videos like these ?

[@MentalHealthTreatment]

Not quite like this. Patient confidentiality is one issue, but also models, animations, and other technology has replaced this kind of viewing of real cases

@@MentalHealthTreatment I thought so. These have the air of guinea pigs.

What I wonder, do they still do these videos with such passion and will to learn. I feel like older videos are more sincere, people in them truly dedicated their life to the topic they're presenting. Maybe it's just a feeling.

[@MentalHealthTreatment]

@@Massimo-sn7xd It could perhaps be that creating a film was much more expensive and rare in the past, and so a lot more planning and thought went into it. They didn't want to waste film!

Might be, indeed.

Can we get Stewie to drop back about 50 years and take a load of latex gloves with him? Did they just not have gloves back in these days? Yuck, so many fingers in mouths. 🤢
