Message definition (Vitamin ) In 1747, the [[Scotland|Scottish]] [[surgeon]] [[James Lind (physician)|James Lind]] discovered that [[citrus]] foods helped prevent scurvy, a particularly deadly disease in which [[collagen]] is not properly formed, causing poor wound healing, bleeding of the [[gingiva|gums]], severe pain, and death. In 1753, Lind published his ''Treatise on the Scurvy'', which recommended using [[lemon]]s and [[Lime (fruit)|lime]]s to avoid [[scurvy]], which was adopted by the British [[Royal Navy]]. This led to the nickname ''[[limey]]'' for British sailors. However, during the 19th century, limes grown in the West Indies were substituted for lemons; these were subsequently found to be much lower in vitamin C. As a result, Arctic expeditions continued to be plagued by scurvy and other [[deficiency disease]]s. In the early 20th century, when [[Robert Falcon Scott]] made his two expeditions to the [[Antarctic]], the prevailing medical theory was that scurvy was caused by "tainted" [[canning|canned food]].
1747年、スコットランド の外科医 James Lind が、柑橘類 食品が壊血病の予防に役立つことを発見した。壊血病はコラーゲン が適切に形成されず、傷の治癒不良、歯肉 の出血、激しい痛み、そして死を引き起こす、特に致命的な病気である。1753年にリンドは壊血病に関する論文 を発表し、壊血病 を避けるためにレモン やライム を使用することを推奨し、イギリス王立海軍 で採用された。このため、イギリスの船員は'ライミー 欠乏症 に悩まされ続けた。20世紀初頭、ロバート・ファルコン・スコット が2度の南極大陸 探検を行ったとき、医学的には壊血病は汚染された 缶詰食品 によって引き起こされるという説が主流であった。
