Rats can 9 t live eating
modern 6 enriched 9 bread
HOUSTON, Tex. (A*) — Com
mercial “enriched” bread is so
low in nutrients that not even a
rat can live on it, a scientist who
starved rodents to death by stuff
ing them with the staff of life
said Wednesday.
Dr. Roger J. Williams, a Uni
versity of Texas nutrition expert,
said he experimentally fed 64
laboratory rats on nothing but
bread called “enriched” by com
mercial bakeries. Within 90 days,
he said, 40 of the rodents had
died of malnutrition. The sur-

vivors “were severely stunted,”
he said.
Sixty-four other rats, Williams
said, were fed the same bread
after it first had been supple
mented in accordance with more
up-to-date nutritional knowledge.
Small amounts of minerals, vit
amins and an amino acid called
lysine, he said, were added to the
bread, but “no attempt was made
to make the bread the best pos
sible.”
All but three of the rats eating
the supplemented bread were
“alive and growing” at the end of
90 days.
“From this experiment it ap
pears that an extremely serious
situation exists with respect to
the manifold products made from
so-called enriched flour,” said Dr.
Williams.
“Enriched products, whether
they be bread, bakery goods or
cereal breakfast foods, are nutri
tionally far below what scientific
advance should demand. Further
more, the same disregard of nu-
tritipnal value ... is carried over
to the production of many other
foods.”
In an interview, Williams said
even prisoners in former times
who were fed only bread and wa
ter received better nutrition than
the experimental rats.
“They used to feed prisoners
bread and water but that was a
higher quality bread than we
have today,” he said.
A prolonged diet of only the
so-called enriched bread today
would result in death for a hu
man, Dr. Williams said.
The nutritionist said the Food
and Drug Administration and
the medical profession encour
aged an atmosphere wherein the
importance of proper nutrition
is ignored, even though modern
research has clearly defined its
value.
Bakers, he said, could supple
ment bread with the nutrient he
used in his experiment for only
about three cents a loaf. But,
he said, the FDA did not permit
the product to be called bread
because it did not fit the stand
ards set by the agency.

Each orphan will have a big

ginning with departure from the
