MISS SHANGHAI For example, it has been established that there is a definite relation between your vision and the vitamins in your diet; between your ability to drive a car safely at night, and the amount of vita' foods that you min consume. To understand this astonishing fact, it is necessary to know that vision under faint illumination is accomplished by means of chemical changes in the pigment at the back of the eye. This is known as the visual purple of the retina and one of its important components is carotene, which is the active form of vitamin A. The visual purple might be compared to the film in a camera When you are in a dim light and the eyes are suddenly exposed to bright light, the visual purple is greatly reduced or bleached. This change results in a stimulation of the optic nerve and enables you to new and very becoming style, most flattering to large women.

When an adequate supply of vitamin A is present in the body, the visual purple is rapidly regenerated. But when the supply is inadequate, a much longer period elapses before the corrective chemical change takes place. During the intervening time, many people find it difficult to see. That is the condition known as night blindness." And it accounts for the fact that a large proportion of serious motor accidents occur at night. Victims of this deficiency disease are first blinded by approaching headlights, then cannot quickly readjust them selves after the oncoming ear has passed. Their ability to drive safely is subsequently impaired for they cannot elearly see the road ahead, and they may miss dangerous curves, pedestrians or other vehicles.
