Excerpt from The American Practitioner, 1878: A Monthly Journal of Medicine and Surgery

These citations are sufficient to show that by authors of works on the practice of medicine, or of treatises upon dis eases of the digestive system, up to a recent date, alimenta tion had not been regarded as a very important measure in the treatment of affections which preclude either the ingestion of food or its digestion in the stomach and small intestines. Of late, however, interest in the subject is beginning to be awakened. It is, perhaps, not an exaggeration to say that, at the present moment, it is one of the most important of the subjects pertaining to practical medicine, which claim atten tion and further investigation. My object in this paper is to submit an account of a few cases which may contribute to our knowledge of the subject, and to offer some remarks in relation to it.
