Historical Medical Practices In 1888

In 1888 a large group of doctors put together a book filled with medical findings and ways of practicing for their times, most specifically reporting on Smallpox varicella, measles, rubeola, scarlet fever, influenza, whooping-cough, diphtheria, enteric fever and mumps.
In our society much of medicine is focused on pharmaceutical solutions only. This resource shows the difference in times but also gives those who are their own detectives in their own health care a potential solution or alternative protocol.
As with all medical concerns it is important to consult your doctor before engaging in any medical practice.

*Nourishing Plot is written by Becky Plotner, ND, traditional naturopath, GAPS who sees clients in Rossville, Georgia. Since her son was delivered from the effects of autism (Asperger’s syndrome), ADHD, bipolar disorder/manic depression, hypoglycemia and dyslexia through food she continued her education specializing in Leaky Gut and parasitology through Duke University, finishing with distinction. This is not a news article published by a paper trying to make money. This blog is put out by a mom who sees first hand the effects of nourishing food vs food-ish items. No company pays her for writing these blogs, she considers this a form of missionary work. It is her desire to scream it from the rooftops so that others don’t suffer from the damaging effect of today’s “food”.
