81 Petr6IeO No es un substitute de-
Aceite de HigadO de Bacalao

Durante Ia presente escasez de
aceite de hfgado de bacalao, algunos
industriales han hecho grandes es-
fuerzos para popularizar en- provecho
propio el uso de petroleo 8 para6na
como subtancia alimenticia.
Bastante rfdiculo es en- verdad, por
no calificarlo de otro modo, Ell asegu-
rar que ell petr6leo puede substituir al
aceite de hfgado de bacalao.
La gran reputation de que goza Ell
aceite de hfgado de bacalao es debido
sus grandes propiedades nutritivas 8
alimenticias. En- verdad, el aceite de
hfgsdo de bacalao no solamente eS
un alimento, sino que es Ell mejor me-
dicamento que Sc conoce en- Medicina
y a1n no Sc ha podido encontrar en- La
naturaleza otro alimento igual, Y
anunciar el petr6leo como un substi--
tuto del aceite de hfgado de bacalao,
es atribuir al petr6leo 6 parafina pro-
piedades que no tiene. Ell petr6leo
carece de la propiedad eseDcial de to-
do aliinento, es decir, la de ser asimi-
liable. El petroleo 6 parafna no sola-
mente no eS una substantial asimilable,
sino que cuando Sc toma interiormente
es expe1ido en- su totalidad por las
evacuaciones estinales, causando in
digestion, irritaci6n del estomago y
de los intestinos, enfermedades del
hfgado y del pancreas y con frecuen-
cia diarrea y disenter1a.
La presente eScasez de aceite hfgado
de baca1ao es un case exceptional que
no durara mucho tempo, pero ha des-
mostrado va la gran demanda que
constantemente hay en- Ell mundo por
este producto alimenticio. Miles de
personals, jovenes ancianos, nsan
continuamente este aceite y 81 salud y
su vida depeDde de el.
Afortunadamente la mayor parte
del aceite de bacalao que Sc consume
en- el mundo es administrado baio la
forma de emulsion de Scott prepa-
rada por los Sres. Scott & Bovine,
Qufmicos de Nueva York, qtienes
debido 4 sus muchos amos de expe-
riencia en- la materia, vieron venir la
escasez con muchos meses de anticipa
ci6n & hicieron grandes acopios del
aceite, aunque para clio tl1vieron que
paqar precios enormeS. ESQ no obs
tante, e1 precio corriente al detalle de
la Emulsion de Scott no ha sido alte-
rado puede obtenerse en- las boticas
y droguerias al mismo precio de STEM
pre-.
El Petr6leo 8 Parafna puede ser
bueno para lubricar maquinas q otros
usos industriales. pero Ia Emulsion de
de Scott es Ia 1nica burna para 81
