Unveiling the Secrets of Body Chemistry: A Journey from Inorganic to Organic

About a century ago, a group of pioneering scientists from Germany, England, France, and Italy embarked on a profound study into the chemistry of the human body. Their method was as unique as it was insightful: they analyzed the chemical composition of the ashes left after incinerating various human organs and tissues. This group included luminaries such as Dr. Wm. H. Schuessler from Oldenburg, Germany; Dr. Larbacher from Leipzig; and others like Dr. M. D. Walker and Dr. J. T. O’Connor, contributing to what we now understand as Biologic Chemistry.
