The Middle Ages
People preserved or candied herbs and consumed them to aid digestion as far back as the Middle Ages. In the 16th century, Paracelsus developed one of the first recipes of the mixed herbs in Salzburg. Over the course of his life, he published an array of medical literature and was known as the “Luther of Medicine”.
