Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes bowel complaints, particularly dysentery, from a holistic perspective. The author presents a theory that consuming animal protein can cause dysentery, which is detailed in a thorough discussion of the digestive process. Chapters also examine dysentery's link to other diseases, including cholera and malaria. The author's research into nitrous and nitric acids argues that these substances are the true cause of dysentery. While examining the putrefaction that occurs during digestion, the author explains other health concerns that arise when the stomach's gastric juices fail to properly break down food, which include fevers, upset stomachs, and acid reflux. Ultimately, this book's insights provide a scientific basis for understanding and combating dysentery and related ailments, making it essential reading for medical professionals and general readers concerned about digestive health.
