Excerpt from General Results of the Investigation Showing the Effect of Benzoic Acid and Benzoates Upon Digestion and Health The same principles which guided the organization of the work as described in Part I were followed in the present instance. Upon the selection of the members of the hygienic table each man was subjected to a thorough medical examination of the character already described. No one was admitted to the table who was suffering from any organic disease, who manifested any tendency to hereditary disease, or who had been seriously ill within the year previous to the beginning of the experimental work. The delay which has attended the presentation of this report for publication has been due to several causes. First, the great burden of collating the data, condensing the analytical tables, and checking the data for accuracy, required, as is usual in such cases, a large amount of time and expert labor. There were also a number of points brought out in the investigations which required further study of the question, both experimentally and in consulting authorities thereon.
