Synopsis

""What We Eat And What Happens To It"" is a scientific book written by Philip Bovier Hawk in 1919. The book presents the results of the first direct method ever devised to follow the actual digestion of food in the human stomach. Hawk provides a detailed description of the digestive process, including the role of enzymes and the breakdown of food into nutrients. The book also explores the effects of different foods on the digestive system and the body, as well as the impact of factors such as age, sex, and health on digestion. Hawk's research is based on experiments conducted on human volunteers, and the book includes numerous charts and graphs to illustrate his findings. Overall, ""What We Eat And What Happens To It"" is a groundbreaking work that sheds light on the complex processes that occur in our bodies when we eat, and the importance of a healthy diet for overall health and well-being.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
