   • 1807, Sir John Sinclair, The Code of Health and Longevity:

     The famous author of the Commentary on the 12th of the first section of aphorisms, affirms, that the meat is proportioned to the difflation, and, Com. 15th, that there is a greater difflation in the winter-time, therefore it is requisite there should be more meat eaten; it is therefore requisite the weight should be known; all which the trifling staticomastix denies.
