Anglo-Saxon Ancient-Biotics

We love this project of the Ancient-Biotic group at Nottingham university. Showing how a 10th century remedy was effective in inhibiting the MRSA superbug. Such an inspiring demonstration of how ancient knowledge can be relevant and applicable to modern times. #Ancientbiotics #AngloSaxon #NottinghamUniversity

Fáilte! / Welcome!

Here you will find blog-posts and details of our plan to create a pharmacopoeia of Highland herbs, based on research and Materia Medica from the early Gaelic medical manuscripts.

This is a HUGE task and we hope to provide interesting snippets of our finds along the way. The result will hopefuly be a pharmacopoeia compendium of Highland medicinal plants that will make history.

Please share with your friends!
