Description

Ground-up mummy bones, leeches sucking human blood, and a breakfast of dried mouse paste.

It sounds like a horror movie, but those were actual medicines prescribed by early doctors.

Medical students studied anatomy on bodies stolen from graves and had to operate on people while they were awake.

Learn about the medicines that came from poison and doctors who experimented on themselves and their families.

It's a twisted tale of medical mayhem, but it's all true!Ages 9-12
