I suspect he never really said this, because we don't know what Hippocrates really said, but we do know for sure that one of the great Greek physicians said the following, and it has been recorded in one of the books attributed to Hippocrates, and the book is called "Precepts."
Pretpostavljam da nikada ovo nije stvarno rekao, jer ne znamo što je Hipokrat zaista rekao, ali znamo sigurno da je jedan od velikih grčkih liječnika rekao sljedeće, a to je zabilježeno u jednoj od knjiga pripisanih Hipokratu, knjizi pod nazivom "Pravila".
