Open full text 4 citations

Abstract

1. Sodium excretion of rats was increased by the supplement of riboflavin, choline, pantothenic acid or vitamin A to the diet. 2. Pantothenic acid concentration in the liver of rats was higher in the vitamin supplemented group than in the liver of those unsupplemented. 3. Authors have assumed that one of the preventive effects of the vitamins against the elevation of blood pressure would be the facilitating action of these vitamins on the excretion of sodium.
