2,000 YEARS OF WOUND HEALING

From the 1st century A.D. to the late 19th century, one medical compound reigned supreme over all remedies: THERIAC. This formula was made famous by a Greek physician named Claudius Galen who discovered it’s strong healing properties in the treatment of wounds.

Galen’s first job was as the “Doctor to the Gladiators”, where he built considerable skill and knowledge on the human anatomy and wound care. Galen’s use of Theriac reduced the gladiators’ death rate dramatically. His accomplishments attracted the attention of the Roman Emperor, who quickly made him as his personal physician.

Theriac’s recipe traveled the world via the silk road, from Venice to India and even China. Theriac, became the world’s all-time wonder drug for nearly 2,000 years.
