Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book challenges conventional wisdom on gout, rheumatism, and arthritis, which were often considered incurable in the early 20th century. The author, a physician with decades of experience, rejects the prevalent theories of the time, including those based on bacterial infection, dietary excess, and uric acid accumulation. Instead, he proposes a new understanding of these conditions as physiological aberrations, arising from impaired bodily functions. The book delves into the intricacies of metabolism, examining the chemical processes involved in the breakdown of dead cells and the role of urea and lactic acid in maintaining the body's delicate chemical balance. Through careful observation and experimentation, the author identifies the true nature of the "urate", a key player in gout, and demonstrates its distinct composition from previously accepted theories. The author also emphasizes the importance of the skin as a vital organ for excretion and oxidation, highlighting the often overlooked role of physical factors such as cold and heat in triggering these conditions. This groundbreaking work offers a fresh perspective on the nature of these ailments, emphasizing the importance of understanding the body's complex mechanisms rather than relying on simplistic explanations. Through this insightful analysis, the book provides a roadmap for physicians to diagnose and treat these ailments with greater accuracy and hope.
