The Prevention of Recurrence in Peptic Ulcer
By D. T. Quigley, MD
Summary: Dr. Quigley, the famed cancer expert and author from Omaha, declares peptic ulcer a nutritional deficiency disease reflecting a high intake of refined carbohydrates. Deficiency diseases in general, he adds, should always be treated as broad-based deficiencies rather than as isolated, single-nutrient deficiencies. "In real life no scurvy is ever cured by ascorbic acid, no pellegra [sic] is ever cured by nicotinicamide [sic], no anemia is ever cured with iron and no beriberi is ever cured with thiamine. With these remedies the outstanding and most distressing symptoms are alleviated but the basic disease still exists." Thirteen case histories are presented. From The Nebraska State Medical Journal. Reprint 17, 1954.
