Pro tip if you need some empty snail shells: "Take garden snayles and lay them by the fir side the hete whereof will cause the snayles to creepe out" No guidance for what to do, then, with the unhoused snails (from a recipe for kidney stones) #EMROCTranscribes #HistSci #HistFood #HISTSTM #EnvHums

Lots of chatter about abortifacients, as well as herbs bad for the hands. #EMROCTranscribes chatter is fascinating! #HistMed

Had to step away from #EMROCTranscribes as the screenwork seemed to be calling forth a migraine. I did not want to try any of the #EarlyModern remedies for it either. My favourite involved a bunch of worms being turned into a plaster for the head, to be worn all night. Shudder. #HistMed

Another to provoke urine involves baking then breaking snails' shells. Take the amount that fits on a knife point and add to white wine... Again, the breaking of stones/shells. Plus the delightful measurement! #EarlyModern #HistMed #EMROCTranscribes
