A87787048 Doctors on the Warpath: The Pure Food and Drug Act and the AMA
I don't know how we missed this, but in the footnote, it says '1817' when it should say '1917'.
This section discusses Coca-Bola, a substance containing cocaine. It has nothing to do with Coca-Cola. While Coca-Cola contained cocaine at one time, by 1817 its objectionable ingredient, according to Dr Wiley, was caffeine.
It should be '1917', of course. Coca-Cola wasn't around in t1817.
