These disease labels occur in the sweeping praise of a fat-derived balsam. Their historical scope need not match every modern diagnostic category with a similar English name. The list establishes how broadly the source claims the remedy works, not a validated indication list. Keeping this distinction prevents an explanatory vocabulary register from becoming medical advice by implication.
