You can still edit it a pit if you want. Also i will add my biblography in the whole paper.

Hippocrates was an ancient Greek physician who is often referred to as the father of medicine. No biographies were written about him until centuries after his death and are somewhat unreliable. It is believed that he was born around the year 460 BC on the island of Kos. Who he was trained by was disputed but it is known that after he had received his training he traveled and brought his medical knowledge with him. Hippocrates believed that illness developed from an imbalance of the four humors of the body. The four humors were blood, black bile, yellow bile and phlegm. If any four of the humors were believed to be more plentiful then the others the physicians would do their best to remove it. This led to the bleeding of the sick, a practice that lasted many centuries in Europe. Although Hippocrates believed in some medical ideas that were flat out wrong, he made some important strides forward in the field of medicine. He believed in the “natural healing process of rest, a good diet, fresh air and cleanliness.” He also thought that beliefs, feelings and thoughts come from the brain and not the heart. He also accurately described the symptoms of many diseases. Hippocrates also talked about morality in terms of physicians. In Hippocrates work On the physician, he recommends that physicians always be “well-kempt, honest, calm, understanding and serious.” In possibly his most famous work, the Hippocratic corpus, he writes the Hippocratic Oath. This is an oath taken by physicians of the time. Modern physicians still take this oath in a modified form.
