“…Joseph Goldberger* (1874 was requested by the United States Public Health Service to investigate the problem. His results are reported in Goldberger (1914,1916), Goldberger, Waring, and Willets (1915), , and Goldberger, Wheeler, and Sydenstricker (1920). In the first of these articles, Goldberger stated that the diet was unbalanced and that the proportion of maize should be reduced, while the amount offresh animal foods including meats, egg, and milk should be increased; he did not believe that maize was essential to the production of pellagra.…”

Isso é ainda mais significativo, se levarmos em conta que ele e Edgar Sydenstricker demonstraram que, no Sul rural, a deficiência alimentar era decorrente da pobreza dos plantadores e de outros trabalhadores presos à armadilha da estrutura econômica da lavoura do algodão.…”

“…The wretched diets which Goldberger (1920) found associated with pellagra in cotton milling districts of Carolina appear to have contained fairly abundant vitamin B1 in the form of potatoes and beans, while the worst Newfoundland diets are deficient in both the B vitamins. Nevertheless, dietary regimes do occur in Newfoundland which, on the theory just stated, should lead to pellagra, if pellagra is regarded as solely due to vitamin B2 deficiency.…”
