    About this ebook

    Hippocrates is considered the father of medicine and his treatise On the Sacred Disease is one of the first texts to discuss ulcers. In it, he argues that ulcers are not caused by a supernatural force but are instead a natural affliction. He further theorizes that they are caused by an excess of black bile in the body and can be cured by draining this humor.
