What we must always teach our
doctors! You could be an Indian when!
Native Americans are missing an enzyme.
When the enzyme is missing no melanin is produced, tyrosinasenegative albinism and tyrosinase-positive albinism.
Native Americans have a high incidence to both forms of albinism.
In short --"No we are not drunken Indians" --"Yes we are allergic to many chemicals"! --Please be careful.
