270: The Craziest Stories in Medical History and What We Learned From Them

What we know about health and medicine today didn't come from clinical trials. In fact, most of what we know today came from hundreds of years of accidents, tregedies, crazy stories and stubborn people who refused to let their ideas die. In this episode, I'm going to share 4 of the biggest stories from medical history, what we learned and what that means dfor your health today. These stories include a fabric merchant who built his own microscopes, a doctor who watched food digest through a hole in a man's stomach, a cook who infected and killed dozens of people without ever feeling sick, a scientist who discovered antibiotics by accident, and a doctor who drank a glass of bacteria to prove his colleagues wrong. In this episode, I'll take you through over 300 years of history, and what every chapter of it means for what's happening inside your gut, and your body, right now.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: How 300 years of medical history shaped what we know today 4 stories of tragedy, inquiry and death that changed medicine forever What each of these stories means for you today Powerful lessons you should understand from these stories   If you have Crohn's, Colitis or Diverticulitis, be sure to check out my second podcast: Reversing Crohn's and Colitis Naturally.   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?
