b"Roman Merrell, Co-host of The Rising From The Ashes Podcast, invited me to join him in interviewing Doctor Michael E. Bell. We discussed Dr. Bell's book Food For The Dead, how folklore holds valuable information about human culture and how man has reconciled with and understood disease's like Tuberculosis as recently as 200 years ago. Only since the invention of Microscope have we had clear indications of a possible microscopic explanation for disease, nonetheless faith healing, folk medicine and arcane rituals persist in human culture. Consumption as it was known in the early days of American history, was often blamed on a vampiric disembodied evil that manifested its evil upon the living and siphoned vital energies into a nearby corpse usually of a known relative who recently perished to consumption themselves. Roman and I asked Dr. Bell many questions about folklore and Paracelsian medicine.
