How Do These Experiments Benefit the World Today?
Today, only some of the information that was collected from these Nazi Medical Experiments benefits us. This information is the temperature which the human body freezes in water and the amount of salt a human body can have in it before the body no longer can maintain homeostasis. all of the other information has no benefit or use to the world today. Many doctors won't even use the information that these experiments provided because they consider it to be inhumane. In addition, the experiments that did provide information may not even be valid because the humans that were being experimented on were physically unhealthy and not fit for any type of work or medical study. The Nazi Medical Experiments are a "Living Debate".
To answer the question of, "To what extent were doctors and health professionals in the Third Reich guided by idelogy rather than the interests of the medicine and their patents?", from the book Facing History and Ourselves the following conclusion can be made. Although the Nazi medical experiments somewhat benefit modern medical practices today, their work was torturous and often resulted in death. Mainly, the doctors took the experiments on as a way to support the Third Reich and proclaim a feeling of power among the concentration camp prisoners.
