Contest Entry: One of Kellogg's Patent Medicines
This product was extraordinarily dangerous.
"When taken in the doses recommended by Professor Kellogg it could also cause hypertension, cardiac arrest, and stroke. Analysis of a sample of "Sanitone Wafers" by the federal chemists showed them to contain, salts of iron and chromium, a laxative plant extractive, red pepper and a trace of strychnine. In 1921 Kellogg was ordered by the District Court in Tennessee to cease marketing and destroy his inventory."
