Limes Cure Scurvy

In the past, men got sick from sailing far on a ship.


They were pale. They felt bad. What made them sick?


A doctor saw the problem. They just ate meat and grain.


But, they needed all sorts of food.


They started to take limes on the ship.


Limes were the cure! They ate limes all the time.


Then they did not get sick.


(Spache: 2.33)
