Cod Liver Oil

Louis Pasteur pioneered a process for sanitizing wine, beer and milk, and he developed a cure for rabies. Jonas Salk created a vaccine for polio. But who remembers Peter Moller? In 1854, this Norwegian pharmacist invented a method for producing medicinal cod liver oil, which fast became the best answer to the disease of rickets in malnourished children. And he was showered with awards.
