In this essay I focus on the Hippocratic On Flesh and On Regimen and make the case that both texts, each in its peculiar way, represent a specific medical tradition upon which Aristotle draws in his accounts of nutrition and digestion and against which he introduces his own refined version of the concept of innate heat/fire.
