Literature championing the cause of citrus juice, therefore, had no practical impact. The medical theory was based on the assumption that scurvy was a disease of internal putrefaction brought on by faulty digestion caused by the hardships of life at sea and the naval diet. Although this basic idea was given different emphases by successive theorists, the remedies they advocated (and which the navy accepted) amounted to little more than the consumption of 'fizzy drinks' to activate the digestive system, the most extreme of which was the regular consumption of 'elixir of vitriol' – sulphuric acid taken with spirits and barley water, and laced with spices. </p><p>In 1764, a new and similarly inaccurate theory on scurvy appeared.

The others were beer, <a href="/wiki/Sauerkraut" title="Sauerkraut">Sauerkraut</a> (a good source of vitamin C) and Lind's 'rob'.

Malaspina's medical officer, Pedro González, was convinced that fresh oranges and lemons were essential for preventing scurvy. Only one outbreak occurred, during a 56-day trip across the open sea. Five sailors came down with symptoms, one seriously. After three days at <a href="/wiki/Guam" title="Guam">Guam</a> all five were healthy again. <a href="/wiki/Spanish_Empire" title="Spanish Empire">Spain's large empire</a> and many ports of call made it easier to acquire fresh fruit.<sup id="cite_ref-60" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-60"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>60<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Although towards the end of the century MacBride's theories were being challenged, the medical authorities in Britain remained committed to the notion that scurvy was a disease of internal 'putrefaction' and the Sick and Hurt Board, run by administrators, felt obliged to follow its advice. Within the Royal Navy, however, opinion – strengthened by first-hand experience of the use of lemon juice at the siege of Gibraltar and during Admiral Rodney's expedition to the Caribbean – had become increasingly convinced of its efficacy. This was reinforced by the writings of experts like <a href="/wiki/Gilbert_Blane" title="Gilbert Blane">Gilbert Blane</a><sup id="cite_ref-61" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-61"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>61<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Trotter_(physician)" title="Thomas Trotter (physician)">Thomas Trotter</a><sup id="cite_ref-TrotterMilman1786_62-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-TrotterMilman1786-62"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>62<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and by the reports of up-and-coming naval commanders. </p><p>With the coming of war in 1793, the need to eliminate scurvy acquired a new urgency. But the first initiative came not from the medical establishment but from the admirals. Ordered to lead an expedition against Mauritius, <a href="/wiki/Alan_Gardner,_1st_Baron_Gardner" title="Alan Gardner, 1st Baron Gardner">Rear Admiral Gardner</a> was uninterested in the wort, malt and elixir of vitriol which were still being issued to ships of the Royal Navy, and demanded that he be supplied with lemons, to counteract scurvy on the voyage. Members of the Sick and Hurt Board, recently augmented by two practical naval surgeons, supported the request, and the Admiralty ordered that it be done. There was, however, a last minute change of plan, and the expedition against Mauritius was cancelled. On 2 May 1794, only <a href="/wiki/HMS_Suffolk_(1765)" title="HMS Suffolk (1765)">HMS&#160;<i>Suffolk</i></a> and two <a href="/wiki/Sloop-of-war" title="Sloop-of-war">sloops</a> under Commodore Peter Rainier sailed for the east with an outward bound convoy, but the warships were fully supplied with lemon juice and the sugar with which it had to be mixed. </p><p>In March 1795, it was reported that the <i>Suffolk</i> had arrived in India after a four-month voyage without a trace of scurvy and with a crew that was healthier than when it set out. The effect was immediate. Fleet commanders clamoured also to be supplied with lemon juice, and by June the Admiralty acknowledged the groundswell of demand in the navy and agreed to a proposal from the Sick and Hurt Board that lemon juice and sugar should in future be issued as a daily ration to the crews of all warships.<sup id="cite_ref-63" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-63"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>63<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>It took a few years before the method of distribution to all ships in the fleet had been perfected and the supply of the huge quantities of lemon juice required to be secured, but by 1800, the system was in place and functioning. This led to a remarkable health improvement among the sailors and consequently played a critical role in gaining the advantage in naval battles against enemies who had yet to introduce the measures. </p><p>Scurvy was not only a disease of seafarers. The early colonists of Australia suffered greatly because of the lack of fresh fruit and vegetables in the winter. There the disease was called <b>Spring fever</b> or <b>Spring disease</b> and described an often fatal condition associated with skin lesions, bleeding gums and lethargy. It was eventually identified as scurvy and the remedies already in use at sea implemented.<sup id="cite_ref-64" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-64"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>64<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="19th_century">19th century</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Scurvy&amp;action=edit&amp;section=11" title="Edit section: 19th century"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:A_case_of_Scurvy_journal_of_Henry_Walsh_Mahon.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c8/A_case_of_Scurvy_journal_of_Henry_Walsh_Mahon.jpg/220px-A_case_of_Scurvy_journal_of_Henry_Walsh_Mahon.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="349" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c8/A_case_of_Scurvy_journal_of_Henry_Walsh_Mahon.jpg/330px-A_case_of_Scurvy_journal_of_Henry_Walsh_Mahon.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c8/A_case_of_Scurvy_journal_of_Henry_Walsh_Mahon.jpg/440px-A_case_of_Scurvy_journal_of_Henry_Walsh_Mahon.jpg 2x" data-file-width="900" data-file-height="1428" /></a><figcaption>Page from the journal of <a href="/w/index.php?title=Henry_Walsh_Mahon&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="Henry Walsh Mahon (page does not exist)">Henry Walsh Mahon</a> showing the effects of scurvy, from his time aboard HM Convict Ship <i>Barrosa</i> (1841/2)</figcaption></figure> <p>The surgeon-in-chief of <a href="/wiki/Napoleon" title="Napoleon">Napoleon</a>'s army at the <a href="/wiki/Siege_of_Alexandria_(1801)" title="Siege of Alexandria (1801)">Siege of Alexandria (1801)</a>, Baron <a href="/wiki/Dominique-Jean_Larrey" class="mw-redirect" title="Dominique-Jean Larrey">Dominique-Jean Larrey</a>, wrote in his memoirs that the consumption of <a href="/wiki/Horse_meat" title="Horse meat">horse meat</a> helped the French to curb an epidemic of scurvy.

In fact, the West Indian limes were significantly lower in Vitamin C than the previous lemons and further were not served fresh but rather as lime juice, which had been exposed to light and air, and piped through copper tubing, all of which significantly reduced the Vitamin C. Indeed, a 1918 animal experiment using representative samples of the Navy and Merchant Marine's lime juice showed that it had virtually no antiscorbutic power at all.<sup id="cite_ref-ceg_26-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ceg-26"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>26<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>The belief that scurvy was fundamentally a nutritional deficiency, best treated by consumption of fresh food, particularly fresh citrus or fresh meat, was not universal in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and thus sailors and explorers continued to have scurvy into the 20th century.

In the latter half of the 19th century there was greater recognition of the value of eating fresh meat as a means of avoiding or treating scurvy, but the lack of available game to hunt at high latitudes in winter meant it was not always a viable remedy.
