From last year, here’s the medieval remedy to MRSA. Of course, it costs so much less than the new treatment, so it’ll never show up as an option in your doctor’s regimen.

[Tilted Irish Kilt]

(from the source):"The Daily Telegraph reported that the recipe, which dates from the 10th century, calls for two species of Allium
-- a scientific type that includes garlic, onion, and leek -- as well as wine and oxgall, or bile from the stomach of a cow." Cheap , but with cow bile makes it offal !

Babylonians used onion for eye treatments 3000 years ago.

I have an old 150 year old book that says to clear out your nose you sniff SALT water.
