		It is unnecessarily arrogant and dishonest for practitioners of any one system of medicine to claim that it has the answers to all problems and that other systems of medicine are useless.

	Garlic--The Pungent Panacea - Christopher Hobbs L.Ac., A.H.G. - HealthWorld Online
		In Coptic medicine garlic macerated in oil was prescribed for skin diseases and to be taken after birth, as it was thought to stimulate milk production.
		Also mentioned is garlic's long-standing use as an anthelmintic, as a protectant from bites of venomous beasts (dogs and vipers), for the removal of sputum and relief of coughs, for healing running ulcers, leprosy, tooth pains, and as a stimulant to the menstrual flow.
		The Renaissance herbalists were somewhat less enthusiastic and more discriminating than the Greeks about the virtues of garlic and accepted that a food or medicine as hot and drying as garlic is suitable for some people and not others, depending on their underlying constitution (hot, dry, cold, or moist, etc.).
