So. I learned SO much from reading this book. I feel like a scholar...well not really but whatever.
Ch.1- Cow pox is cured by cowpox pus.
Ch.2-Maggots clean wounds by eating the dead flesh. But there are different types of maggots. One type eats dead flesh, another eats both dead and alive flesh, another eats living flesh. They look really similar.
Ch.3- Honey and sugar heals wounds and burns.
Ch. 4- Bath water cures constipation, colic, gout, ingertility, and paralysis. It's also very good for elders.
Ch.5- Clay was full in calcium (food supplement) nutrition. From too much bloodloss you can die.

hprocks-
Glad you're enjoying the book.
It might be nice to take one of those claims and explain it in more detail - I would particularly like to hear about the maggot therapy!
