Dietary treatment of pernicious anemia. Minot, Murphy (Jour. of Am. Med. Ass., 1926, no. 7)
The authors suggest that more serious attention than has hitherto been given to the treatment of pernicious anemia should be given to a special, fat-poor diet consisting chiefly of large quantities of liver, fresh vegetables, and fruit. In almost all of the 45 patients who were under their care and were on this diet, the anemia rapidly subsided with a decrease in the jaundice index and an increase in the number of red blood cells.
