Excerpt from The Retrospect of Medicine, Vol. 74: Being a Half-Yearly Journal Containing a Retrospective View of Every Discovery and Practical Improvement in the Medical Sciences, July-December, 1876 Alcohol AS A food IN fever cases. I have convinced myself by a series of experiments that alcohol is completely destroyed in the animal organism. If pure it leaves no taint upon the breath, and where this is present it is attributable to some of the ethers or fusel oil. Thus, in the experiments referred to, I found only traces. Such being the case, it is evident that every molecule of alcohol burned within the system must yield, not only warmth, but that power to.
