Abstract: It is proved that if $u_1,ldots,u_n$ are vectors in ${BbbR}^k,klen,1lep<infty$ and ${\displaystyle }$r = ({1over k} sum ^n_1 |u_i|^p)^{1over p}${\displaystyle }$ then the volume of the symmetric convex body whose boundary functionals are $pm{u}_1,ldots,pm{u}_n$, is bounded from below as ${\displaystyle }$|{ xin {Bbb R}^kcolon |langle x,u_i angle | le 1 hbox{for every} i}|^{1over k} ge {1over sqrt{ ho}r}.${\displaystyle }$ An application to number theory is stated.
