On the other hand, the more sparing use of these wines, a glass or two, with dinner or luncheon would evidently not produce any appreciable retardation of peptic action, but would, like corresponding doses of sherry, act as pure stimulants. In both these instances, as in some others, it seems to be indicated that by adjusting the quantities we may elicit diverse effects. With large quantities we may obtain retardation, with small quantities we may obtain acceleration of gastric digestion. Malt Liquors.--The malt liquors experimented on were bottled Burton ale, a light sparkling English table beer, and Lager beer. Table XI.--Shows the effect of Malt Liquors on Gastric Digestion. 2 grams of dried beef-fibre + 0-15 HC1 + 1 c.c. glycerine-extract of pepsin + varying quantities of malt liquors + water to 100 c.c. The retarding effect of malt liquors is (as is the case with wines) altogether out of proportion to their percentage of alcohol. These beverages contain only from 4 to 6 per cent. of alcohol (8 to 12 per cent. of proof spirit), so that the alcohol contained in them could scarcely ever, on its own account, produce any effect. Their retarding influence must, however, often come into operation. These beverages are used very freely with meals, and the digesting mass in the stomach must often contain them in the proportion of 50 or 60 or sometimes even 80 per cent. Such proportions would act as powerful retardants, especially on the digestion of bread and other articles of farinaceous food. In more moderate quantities--a tumbler or so--especially of the lighter beers, this effect would evidently be more promotive than retardive of gastric digestion. It was found experimentally that beer when ...
