Boric acid link to appendicitis sparks medical debate
A New York and Chicago Daily News reprint cites Lancet and Dr Reginald Harrison claiming boric acid in preserved foods boosts appendicitis and enteritis rates. He describes a mechanical path from flatulent dyspepsia to appendiceal blockage, with quotes from Deaver and Jones supporting concerns. Tobacco, vodka labels, and old tapestry makers surface in a scattered critique of modern adulterations.
