The Bacillus of Long Life
Loudon M. Douglas
Loudon Douglas found a health argument in soured milk: the bacillus of long life, borrowed from Bulgarian peasants and the science of Metchnikoff. Fermented milks, their cultures, and their claimed powers fill this earnest 1911 study. The yogurt craze at its very beginning, complete with laboratory respectability. Meet your oldest probiotic.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
