CHEMISTRY OF HEALTH
JOHN JACOB ABEL was a chemist with an
idea. He thought that knowledge of the
chemistry of body fluids, tissues and organs
would help define their functions ... point
the way to better health. That's how the im
portant science of Endocrinology was born.
Through study of the ductless glands, Abel
was the first to extract a pure secretion. He
succeeded in obtaining adrenalin from the
adrenal glands on May 6, 1897 ... a drug
very important today in tha treatment of
certain heart and shock cases.
