1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, we find this body is very good throughout. There are some abnormal conditions in the system. They have to do with the nerve supply forces and with assimilation throughout the system. Now these are conditions as we find them at present in this body - [97], we are speaking of.
2. Through the blood supplying forces we find there has been in times back malnutrition in the system, and the present condition of the blood supply though not of a detrimental nature to the system either in quality but in quantity there are some of the elemental constituents lacking. Through the nerve forces we find in the cervical region there is not the proper connection between the sympathetic and the sensory nerve forces supplying the organs of the sensory system, so that the blood supply that eliminates does not always work in accord with the eliminating forces in the system, while the co-ordinating forces between the cerebrospinal nerve center and the sensory organism shows that by the force of the will or mental portions of the body the physical are made to exercise their proper functions, yet with a strain on the system without the connection between the sympathetic and the sensory - see? For, with the strain on the mental forces for the functioning of the organs of the sensory system the drain comes to the mental portion of the body and with high tension the body relaxes too quickly and feels fagged from the condition - see? That is, either in hearing, speech or sight.
3. Through the functioning of the organs themselves we find these conditions. The brain force of the body is good. The mental capacities above the normal. The spiritual forces are a great deal above the normal body, for the brace of the individual is in the spiritual nature of things whether animate or inanimate.
4. With the functioning of the organs of the sensory system we find first, that the hearing is acute, yet too much noise that is unharmonious becomes rebellious to the nerve forces. In the sense of sight we find the reflexes to the organs of the poor assimilating forces gives eliminating properties to

the functioning forces carrying the blood supply from this portion of the body. With every strain again, we find reflexes come to the nerve centers and bring irritation. In the throat we find not abnormal conditions to this body, but normal to this body, but abnormal to other bodies, see? Especially, in the functioning of the inferior muscles of the vocal chords.
5. In the lung supply we find the body very good, though strained with the malnutrition effect not at present, but the effect of the condition exists. Through the digestive tract the body at times rather that of a spasmodic condition of digestion than of indigestion, rather that of a temperamental digestion than indigestion, though at such times there are reflexes to the whole system, and through the hepatic circulation there becomes an irritant to the system and the digestion functioning must be temporarily cared for, see.
6. The liver very good. The spleen overtaxed with mental forces at times in the destruction of red blood cells from the active forces of the brain proper. The kidneys only that of reflexes, as is shown from the hepatic circulation. The heart action very good.
7. To keep the equilibrium in the system to overcome the conditions in the body with the temperamental digestive tract, we would take in the system this.
8. To one gallon of rain water, we would add: 8 ounces Sage, reduced by simmering, to one quart, strain while warm, and add 6 ounces of cane sugar, first dissolved in warm water, then add 4 ounces of gin, with 15 grains of Ambergris, dissolved in 1 ounce of grain alcohol, and add 3 drams of Cinnamon.
9. The dose would be: 1 Teaspoonful three times each day. For the condition in the cervical region that gives the supplying forces to the sensory system take the exercises that would strengthen the muscular forces about the first, second, and third cervicals of the body, and neck motion. Be methodical and persistent with them if we could give the best results. Keep the mind to the development of the physical attributes of the body in relation to the functioning of the organs as the exercises are taken from five to ten minutes each evening. Do that.
10. (Q) Mr. Cayce, should these medicines be taken before meals or after. (A) Before.
11. (Q) Mr. Cayce, this body believes she has had two abscesses. What have you to say about this? (A) The condition of malnutrition with the improper

elimination in the system, with these elements in the body. We are to overcome the condition of the blood supply producing these conditions in the body, see? These have shown on portions of the body, but they are of improper eliminating forces rather than of organic conditions in the system - see?
12. (Q) Mr. Cayce, how much time will be required to bring this body to its normal health? (A) With one quantity of this taken in the system, and with the exercises and of the mind forces, used with the physical body - see? We must establish a perfect elimination through the emunctories and give the incentive to the blood supply to remove those elements that are lacking in the blood forces, see? This is to be added and given the proper force by those properties given in the Sage with its effect on the blood and the liver with the Ambergris, as the effect on the intestinal system and the blood absorption from the elements taken in the body. With the Juniper the element with the stimulus to produce the perfect elimination through the kidneys.
13. (Q) Doctors have told this body that her stomach has dropped. Is this true or not? (A) It is not. It is in place at present.
14. (Q) The body wants to know what element is lacking in her blood. (A) That of ozone that eminates from the oxygen to give the vital force necessary in the blood to destroy the forces, as is taken by the leucocyte in the blood supply, see?
15. (Q) One more question. This body has had an incision that causes her a great deal of pain. What will relieve that? (A) Only when we relieve that which causes or produces this, you see, in the system, as this gives the system the proper elements to give the strength and vitality. We will gradually overcome this. It will only be when the proper elements are added to the system that it will be consistently removed.
