Father of Medicine

Magnus Hippocrates who was born in 460 BC is called the Father of Medicine. He wrote, ‘and this I know, moreover, that to the human body it makes a great difference whether the bread be fine or coarse, or wheat with or without the hull (the hull is the bran). Whoever pays no attention to these things or paying attention does not comprehend them, how can he understand the diseases that befall a man?’ 'For by every one of these things a man is affected this way or that and the whole of his life is subjected to them whether in health, convalescence or disease. Nothing else can be more important or more necessary to know than these things’.
