"The Starvation Treatment of Diabetes" by Lewis Webb Hill and Rena Sarah Eckman is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the innovative dietary approaches to managing diabetes, particularly emphasizing the methods developed by Dr. Frederick M. Allen at the Massachusetts General Hospital. It aims to provide healthcare practitioners with detailed instructions and recipes for a series of diets intended to support patients through the stages of treatment. The opening of the work includes an introduction that discusses the significance and effectiveness of the starvation treatment for diabetes as a method that has shown promise in clinical settings. The authors present a motivation for their book by detailing the importance of understanding the composition of food and the precise caloric values required for effective treatment. The text outlines the initial medical approaches to diabetes management, highlights the starvation period where patients consume limited calories primarily through whiskey or broth, and sets the stage for the structured progression of dietary adjustments that follow, emphasizing care in monitoring carbohydrate and protein intake.
