Excerpt from Diseases of the Digestive Organs, and Constipation, Treated Homoeopathically
There is, perhaps, nothing in London life so remarkable as its combination of epicurean and sedentary habits. Its diseases, as remarkably, are precisely those which should arsie from such causes; namely, affections of the abdominal viscera. These diseases, however, do not in general arise immediately from the habits now mentioned, but chiefly from such habits at once overloading and rendering torpid the intestinal canal, or producing constipation.
Constipation may, accordingly, be reckoned the parent of metropolitan disease.
