New Aspects of Diabetes by Carl von Noorden Book PDF Summary
Excerpt from New Aspects of Diabetes: Pathology and Treatment One of the leading features of internal medicine, as taught and practiced in Germany at the present time, is the attention given to problems of digestion and metabolism. The advances in theoretical chemistry and their application to the studies in the physiology and pathology of nutrition have opened up most promising perspectives into the correlations of organs of the human body and have furthermore stimulated in Germany, in a most fruitful way, that art of healing which is based on scientific principles. Our country has followed Germany very closely in the last ten years in this direction and indeed has taken an advanced independent attitude on many fundamental points. The general interest in these matters is shown by the valuable researches made upon foods which the Department of Agriculture of our government has carried out and by the interest demonstrated by our universities, scientific laboratories and the general public. The medical profession in general practice, however, has not as yet taken that interest in questions of nutrition which these problems deserve, but the interest is growing rapidly and the demands for teaching on these lines has been felt more and more in medical colleges and especially in postgraduate medical schools.
