It's about time we talk about one of the most iconic physicians of ancient Greece.  Galen is a well known name in medical circles.  Many precepts in medicine can be traced back to him.  His teachings lasted the better part of 2,000 years and were the foundation for the medical schools of yesteryear.  That being said, Galen was wrong about a lot of physiology.  This episode will explain why.  We'll talk about the "four humors" of ancient Greek medicine.  If your bile, blood, and phlegm aren't in balance at the beginning of the show, they will be by the end.
