A New Branch of Medicine | In the beginning there were two branches of medicine and only two were needed. We crawled from our caves early to forage all day for food. Fire was useful even though it burned down some dens before we were ready to leave for a cleaner, less ravaged new site. We discovered what plants were good to eat and which were poisonous. Some were used to heal and they became today’s pharmaceutical industry. We found ways to cut plants, animals and enemies and this became surgery. It was a strenuous life. There was no thought of exercise. Mere existence was physically exhausting which was fine because we had evolved to be on the go all day. Back in the cave we were with people we had grown up with. There were no secrets. We supported each other. Those who were lucky enough to not be caught by a tiger or the tribe over the hill lived to an old age, maybe sixty winters and they died in their sleep.
