Acid Vitamin A diet dissolves stones in rats
Dr Higgins shows that Vitamin A deficiency causes urinary stones in rats on an acid diet. Mucous membranes thicken, kidney and bladder infections appear after weeks, and stones form after 250 days. Adding Vitamin A with other foods can dissolve small stones in 50 to 300 days, with diet alone preventing recurrence. Operation is required only if obstruction occurs.
