"Ref. Lindeboom, Boerhaaviana 277 : Garrison & Morton 3713: ""Lind, founder of naval hygiene in England, wrote a classical treatise on scurvy, in which he described many important experiments he had made on the disease. He urged the issue of lemon juice in the Navy and even suggested preserved orange and lemon juice; it was due to Lind that scurvy was eventually eradicated from the British Navy"""
