"Dr. Ershoff took three groups of rats. Group one ate a basic diet fortified with vitamins and minerals. Group two ate as much as they wanted of the same diet plus B vitamins and brewer's yeast. Group three ate the basic diet but had 10% desiccated (dehydrated) liver added.
The group one rats swam an average of 13.2 minutes before they all drowned. Group two, an average of 13.4 minutes. Group three, however, were still swimming at the end of two hours." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14864635 |

Published in 1951, so English Channel swimmers know all about it.

halfcard does come up with stuff that some might not want to get reminded of. Ershoff could be coming from a country where experiments of these kinds were performed on humans, till death did occur! Try looking up Dachau halfcard!
