1. Refection occurs as a rule in rats receiving diets containing raw potato starch.

2. Rats were maintained for one year on a diet deficient in the vitamin B complex and containing raw potato starch. Two of them attained a weight of almost 300 grm. and made sustained gains at a rate of almost 4 grm. daily.

3. Rapid decline, symptoms of vitamin B1 and B2 deficiency and death were observed in these rats after their diet had been steamed.

4. Steaming under identical conditions does not alter the vitamin B (complex) content of other diets.
