In this episode, we’ll explore the contributions of Claudius Galen to medicine and his lasting influence. We’ll discuss his theories on the four bodily humours and his advocacy for observation and diagnostics, such as pulse and urine analysis. We’ll also cover his 'Theory of Opposites' in treatment and how his alignment with the Christian Church helped solidify his ideas. Additionally, we’ll examine his belief in the Miasma theory and its impact on medical understanding until the 19th century.
