Dr. Moro's Carrot Soup

[Ringo]

Ernst Moro was a doctor who saved thousands of children thanks to a simple carrot soup. In the early 20th century, infant mortality from diarrhea was alarmingly high. In 1908, Moro proposed a simple recipe for carrot soup that cut the mortality rate in half.

The secret to its effectiveness was only revealed in 2002: the acidic oligosaccharides in the soup prevent bacteria from attaching to the intestinal walls. This remedy even works against diarrhea caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

But Moro’s contribution to pediatrics is much broader:
He introduced the sterilization of baby bottles.
He proved that breastfeeding strengthens a child’s immune system.
He developed a formula for infant formula (“Moro’s milk”).
He discovered the benefits of lactobacilli in fermented milk products.
He described a reflex (the Moro reflex), the absence of which may indicate damage to the central nervous system or a risk of cerebral palsy.

P.S. Moro's Carrot Soup Recipe:

500 grams of carrots
1 liter of water
A pinch of salt

Boil for 1.5–2 hours, then purée and add boiled water to make up 1 liter.

No additives. Just carrots and time.

That's awesome, the simplest solutions to one's health is, and always has been, the best solution. We humans are hardwired for these solutions to be effective, as our bodies have relied on these solutions for how many generations?

And how many generations have been taking pharmaceuticals?
