TRUTH !!
Surgeons who accompanied Roman soldiers into battle commonly took bags of
daisies with them in order for their slaves to extract the juices from same.
This juice acted as a powerful astringent when soaked in bandages and
applied to wounds. Even today in traditional medicines, daisy juice is used
to treat various wounds, and the leaves can be made into a tea to treat
gastrointestinal complaints - but don't try this at home without proper
supervision.
