Note 43 — Chapter VI · ANTISCORBUTIC FOODS
Reading edition
“We find the College of Physicians at Vienna sent to Hungary great quantities of the most approved antiscorbutic herbs dried in this manner; which were found to be of no benefit. Many of these would have their virtues as little impaired by drying as spinage, e.g., marsh trefoil. Kramer tried almost every species of dried herbs to no purpose.” (Treatise on The Scurvy. James Lind, London, 1772, p. 143.)
