Abstract
In a preceding paper1) of mine I have stated on the basis of blood platelet count that most of “healthy” mothers secreting milk completely negative to Arakawa's reaction are generally in a state of avitaminosis B. In the present paper cases with human milk with intermediate Arakawa's reaction have been investigated. And as was expected, those cases have shown intermediate figures of blood platelet count between those of the strongly Arakawa-positive and the completely Arakawa-negative cases.
The result may be shown better by a small table accompanying (Cf. Table X).
