Thousand year old cure for MRSA superbug?

Thousand year old cure for MRSA superbug?
A salve created from garlic, onions, wine and cow bile from a recipe found in a Medieval medical text is testing positive as a treatment for antibiotic resistant MRSA infections.

It's also a barbecue sauce.

 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

With cow bile? Yum.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Yummy!
The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups

Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!

You wonder how people came up with this stuff. "Let's see, onion, garlic, wine, and.... oh yeah, cow bile for good measure."

Does it heal MRSA by killing the host? Tongue
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Andrew Zimern said it was delicious.
