Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from On Corpulence in Relation to Disease: With Some Remarks on Diet Several years have passed away since Mr. Banting consulted me for Deafness, the treatment of which led to his publishing a pamphlet on Corpulence. It was not my intention to appear in print on this subject, but for an inconvenient correspondence, and which I find is but of little avail to reply to by letter. I therefore think it expedient to give a brief outline of the views which led to the treatment of his infirmity, which may interest the reader, and possibly prevent much misunderstanding. Few who have passed many years in the practice of medicine but must have been aware how little attention had been directed to this painful condition of the human body, more especially with reference to its dietary treatment. Indeed, the medical history of former years is so unsatisfactory on this point, that it was considered a most singular disease, with but little hope of relief, the main reliance for its cure or mitigation being placed on the exhibition of drugs, and certainly those of the most nauseous description.
