A switch from an ordinary to a vegetable diet resulted in an increase both in the fecal folic acid and in the folic acid synthesized and it resulted in a further increase with an addition of cellulose.

This relationship was found to be about the same with the case of thiamine, riboflavin, niacin and pyridoxine.
