Rodgers -1940 Enrico gilberti Mar.5 Mrs.Vert. Jool, Univ. Calif., Berkeley, Alameda Co., Calif. a short pair of forceps, 22 was a little resistant. Mar.7 Jacob Frenkel has brought me some vitamine concentrate that he says helped cure an ailment that his ligands has, that was apparently like that mine have. He described it as a nervous diathesis that followed constant feeding on mealworms. The trade name is "Sanostol", made by Chemische Fabrik Promonta G. m. b. H., Hamburg 26. "Hergestellt aus vitaminreichem Leberölkonzentrat vor allem des Heilbutte (Vitamine A und D) und sonnengereiften, vitamingesättigten Citrusfrüchten (Vitamine C) unter Verwendung diastasereichen Malzes (Vitamine B). .... Dosierung: Kinder bis zu 3 Jahren 1-2 Teelöffel voll pro Tag. Ältere Kinder und Erwachsene entsprechend mehr. 6 Teelöffel voll sind in allen Fällen ausreichend. - Therapeutische Dosen nach Anweisung des Arztes." I force-fed 979 one mealworm and about two drops of this vitamine concentrate. 20 and 14 each ate a mealworm that had been dipped in it. 20 as well as 22 has a bright red head now; 20 not near as bright as 22. 14 has moved on the head but a red tail; 20, about the same size as 14 has a dull tail with no red. Neither 14, 20 nor 22 are sick . did even after this.
