In a patient receiving fat-free parenteral nutrition, eczema may be a sign of essential fatty acid deficiency. Vitamin C deficiency is not affected by fat intake; symptoms include bleeding gums and breakdown of scar tissue. Eczema is not a sign of protein-energy malnutrition. The body makes phospholipids and sterol and so deficiency does not occur. |
