William Stark (1740 or 1741–1770) was an English physician and medical pioneer who investigated scurvy by experimenting on himself with fatal consequences. He devised 24 restrictive diets, such as bread and water with a little sugar for thirty-one days, but died after only eight months whilst living exclusively on honey puddings and Cheshire cheese. Although he was experimenting with diet restriction, autopsy findings suggest that he died from a phaeochromocytoma.

  • William Stark (1741–1770) fue un médico inglés pionero en la investigación sobre el escorbuto, aunque con consecuencias trágicas para sí mismo. Nació en Birmingham, de familia escocesa, y estudió medicina en la Universidad de Leiden, graduándose en 1769. Comenzó sus estudios sobre el escorbuto en Londres, en junio de 1769, con una serie de experimentos dietéticos efectuados sobre su propia persona. Tras ocho meses de pruebas, murió el 23 de febrero de 1770, a la edad de veintinueve años. Su legado no supuso un gran descubrimiento para el cuerpo médico, pero sus registros detallados ayudaron a establecer la importancia de la vitamina C en la aparición y el curso de la enfermedad. publicó los experimentos de Stark dieciocho años después de su muerte.
