Examples include malnutrition and avitaminosis.
Avitaminosis (vitamin deficiency)
Lack of ascorbic acid in the daily diet leads to a disease called scurvy, a form of avitaminosis that is characterized by:
Scurvy is an avitaminosis resulting from lack of vitamin C, since without this vitamin, the synthesised collagen is too unstable to perform its function.
He studied the neuropathology of the structure and development of the pineal gland and of microglia, lead poisoning, and avitaminosis.
Vitamin K deficiency is a form of avitaminosis resulting from insufficient vitamin K or vitamin K or both.
Avitaminosis is any disease caused by chronic or long-term vitamin deficiency or caused by a defect in metabolic conversion, such as tryptophan to niacin.
In addition to its clinical indication of avitaminosis, fursultiamine has been studied in clinical trials for Alzheimer's disease and autistic spectrum disorders with positive but modest benefits.
Chronic fatigue associated with GSE is a systemic disorder, however there are neurological components that are especially manifest in blood deficiencies like avitaminosis, amineralosis and anemia.
Avitaminosis caused by malabsorption in GSE can result in decline of fat soluble vitamins and vitamin B, as well as malabsorption of essential fatty acids.
In clinical CD there is on obvious reason; avitaminosis and the inability to adsorb essential fatty acids and vitamins can lead to nervous system problems, including sensitivity of the peripheral nervous system.
Grave's disease is an autoimmune hyperthyroidism, as GSE is a potentiator for autoimmune disease, but GD is more commonly found and avitaminosis of selenium and other minerals may be a factor in this increase.
