That is a common lie that the Nazis used to justify their experiments after the war and it is 100% A LIE.
Their experiments yielded little to no valuable information, and we’re done out of sheer cruelty and heinousness.
Like what do you expect when you replace the blood of a person with antifreeze? Or cut them open to see how long it takes for them to bleed out? Or how about torturing twins to see if the other reacts psychically?
Do not believe their lies, this is a common post war myth.
Though, I’ll say that they are definitely enough results from many of them that made it into medical knowledge, like the Club Cell, for example, with numerous evident that these “doctors” word directly with the Nazi and collect their data from involuntary subjects. Numerous sources wrote about how several of them still have their name recognized with honor for their work, such as this, this, or this, etc.
In case it isn’t clear, I am in no way justifying these crime against humanity. But this is part of medical history, a very shameful part along slide the like of Tuskegee experiment and many others, that numerous “doctors” jump at the opportunity to exploit on the fascist’s racial policy to make a name for themselves. Worse, I’ve seen too many people in the field try to pretend it never happened. I’m probably too exaggerated when I said that majority of them have real medical purpose, and I stand corrected on that, but I’ll argue against the idea that the experiments were done purely out of sheer cruelty, as you’ve said.
I am still low-key traumatized after what I read about unit 731
Don’t look into Mengle and other Nazi experiments. It’s deranged. A lot of it is similar to 731 and it’s revolting.

I’ll investigate further. Thanks for correcting.
