People in the Elizabethan era didn't like to take baths. The common belief was that a bath can make you sick. In the wintertime, everyone was literally sewn to their long underwear (a flap for the back was kept closed with buttons.) So, wearing a pomander had real benefits. Pomanders kept air smelling sweet. When these bacteria enters the urinary canal and given sufficient time to thrive inside the human body, they cause tract to engorge resulting to pain. Hypoglycemia, diagnosed in older times, had virtually no effect when diagnosed, on account of my excessive intake of chocolates, sweets and carbonated drinks, high in sugar, that became a practice developed after I quit drinking alcohol 23 in the past. This replaced by 3 to 4 litres of the certain soft drink being consumed on a daily basis, as well as the sweets and chocolates that was a habit for a long time, even whilst partaking in alcohol, merely assisted in keeping the glucose levels with an acceptable level.
