Excerpt from Text-Book of Meat Hygiene: With Special Consideration to Ante-Mortem and Post-Mortem Inspection of Food-Producing Animals
Regulation Of the diet or hygiene has for its purpose the retaining and strengthening of the health of the human or animal organism, by increasing its internal resistance, and by preventing any noxious effects. In doing this it is necessary, in the first place, to consider the nourishment of the organism. Inasmuch as meat constitutes the principal foodstuff for the human body, the regulation of the diet of man must also extend to meat products. And since recently there has been considerable attention paid to the latter from a hygienic stand point, justification is had for the use of the words meat hygiene, by which is understood that part of the regimen which concerns the procurement Of wholesome meat foods for man, their value to public health, as well as the dangers which threaten the consumers Of diseased or unsound meats.
For the prevention of these dangers there should be, in the first place, an expert supervision of the meat-food products Of man. Every thing which constitutes such a supervision may be comprised in the term Of meat inspection or meat examination. By this should be understood the examination of meat and the products made of the same, relative to their proper origin and desirability as food for man.
Inasmuch as these food substances are the products of animals, the examination can only be complete when it extends not alone to all parts of the slaughtered animals, but also to the food-producing animals in life. Accordingly it is more correct to speak of the examina tion as an antemortem and postmortem inspection.
When in the sense of this inspection the term meat is mentioned it should not be applied exclusively to the striated muscles of the body and the tissues in connection therewith (fat, connective tissue, nerves, blood, lymph glands, bones, and cartilages), but rather to all parts
