A description of the disease "pellegra" follows:
http://toxipedia.org/conf/display/toxipedia/Nicotine
Toxpedia - connecting Science and People
Nicotinic acid], more commonly referred to as [niacin], is a B vitamin that is used in baking to ward of the disease [pellegra]. The disease was common in the southern United States in the early twentieth century. Because one of its characteristics is dementia, many of the people stricken with it were institutionalized until scientists discovered that the disease was brought on by a lack of [niacin] in diet.

Vitamin B3 Niacin, also known as nicotinamide, is important in metabolism as well as in the maintenance of healthy skin, nerves, and gastrointestinal tract. Niacin deficiency can result to a disease called pellegra. The symptoms of pellegra are sometimes called “Three Ds” - diarrhea, dermatitis, and dementia. The mouth is also affected by pellegra which causes the inside of the cheeks and tongue to become red and painful. Vitamin B3 can be found in dairy products, poultry, fish, lean meat, nuts, and eggs. Niacin can also be prescribed in higher doses as drugs to help lower cholesterol but this can cause side effects such as flushing of the skin , itching, headaches, cramps, nausea, and skin eruptions
