Abstract
Summary Yeast, casein, starch, agar, and McCollum's salt mixture 185 were found effective in preventing nutritional anemia in rats fed an exclusive whole milk diet. The degree of effectiveness was found to depend in general upon the amount of copper and iron furnished by each substance. Cod liver oil, gelatin, rice polishings, wheat germ oil, and irradiated milk were found to be ineffective in preventing nutritional anemia in rats. An exclusive whole milk diet fed ad libitum to rats furnishes adequate protein, energy, and vitamins for growth, but is deficient in copper and iron.
