This Saturday, strap on your canopic jars and double-check your pulse because Dr. Grimmy is cracking open the ancient medical texts on the next broadcast. We are diving headfirst into the chaotic world of ancient Egyptian medicine, where your local physician was just as likely to hand you a prescription for boiled crocodile dung as he was to properly set a broken femur.
Forget modern healthcare deductibles—back then, your headache cure involved a heavy dose of sympathetic magic, an amulet shaped like a very confused scarab, and a priest muttering aggressively at the corners of your ceiling. Did those honey-and-moldy-bread poultices actually cure infections, or were the ancient Egyptians just winging it with supreme confidence?
Tune in this Saturday to find out how the original masters of mummification kept themselves ticking, and give us a call at the station to share your own wildest home remedy theories. Dr. Grimmy is holding clinic, and trust us—you are going to want a second opinion.
