Pellagra is a vitamin B deficiency. It has nothing to do with EFA. I repeat, there is no such thing as an EFA deficiency. Nobody has ever induced a disease by restricting EFA intake because it's impossible to fail to get enough.
A person eating nothing but fat and protein will have chronically elevated adrenalin and cortisol, will prematurely age, and be more prone to various degenerative diseases.
- Evgeny 12y agoPellagra is a vitamin B deficiency. It has nothing to do with EFA. You could at least look up the first line of a Wikipedia article? Tryptophan is an essential amino acid. It can be caused by decreased intake of niacin or tryptophan,[1] and possibly by excessive intake of leucine. Anyway, in the absence of any sources there's not much I can gain from this discussion, unfortunately.
