韦尔尼奇、L、范莱特和高木得出了脚气病是由于饮食中大米过大造成的结论。根据这一结论采取行动，后者通过改变水兵的饮食，实际上已经成功地从日本海军中根除了这种疾病。Braddon 4收集的大量流行病学证据确凿地表明，脚气病与持续食用过于完全由脱皮(精米)组成的饮食有关。布拉登的观察进一步提出了一个重要的观点，即当地人，无论他们是什么种族，食用在去除果皮之前已经煮熟的大米(例如印度泰米尔人使用的大米)不会有感染疾病的危险。这些大米之间的一个区别在于
THE conclusion that beri-beri was due to a diet in which rice bulked too largely was arrived at by Wernich, l Van Leent, 2 and Takaki. g Acting upon this conclusion the latter, by modifying the diet of the sailors, has succeeded in practically eradicating the disease from the Japanese Navy. The vast amount of epidemiological evidence collected byBraddon 4 showed conclusively that beri-beri was associated with the continuous consumption of a diet composed too exclusively of decorticated (polished) rice. Braddon’s observations brought out the further important point that natives, whatever their race, consuming rice which had been parboiled previous to removal of the pericarp (such as that used by the Indian Tamils) were not in danger of contracting the disease. One difference between these rices consists in
