Inebriates Recover From Whiskey Paralysis Harvard Records Show

Cambridge Mass Sept 14 Ten men and women who recovered from whiskey paralysis and alcohol insanity while drinking daily up to a quart and a half of whiskey were cited to the Harvard Medical School tercentenary today. They were relieved completely by diet plus vitamin B, part of 75 alcoholic patients similarly cured by diet alone. The cases were kept virtually tipsy to prove starvation was the main trouble. The diseases include alcoholic palsy and a mild insanity. two other so-called poisonings were shown to be starvation related. Dr Maurice B Strauss reported that the alcoholic paralytics came from a pattern of breakfast drinking and hunger suppression, with 2600 daily calories from whiskey. Diets including eggs milk beef or lamb orange juice vegetables yeast and vitamin B were used, with cures in two weeks to four months. The conclusion is that alcoholic paralysis is caused by defective nutrition, not a poisonous effect of alcohol.
