1. EC: We have the body, [190], here. Now, we find the conditions are very good in many respects with this body. There are, however, those conditions existent of which the body should be warned, and with the corrections we would find a much different reaction in the physical forces, and the preventing of distresses with same later on, from those conditions that at present only irritate and bring in varied forms conditions unsatisfactory to the body at present, yet not at this time manifesting in the extreme, or in an accentuated sense.
2. These, then, are conditions as we find them with this body, [190] we are speaking of. First:
3. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this very good in quantity, pressure, circulation, and its reactions. The elements or constituents of same show signs of those conditions of which the body should be warned.
4. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, here we find the greater amount of distress and the conditions that should be warned or guarded against. In the 4th and 5th lumbar we find there are those conditions wherein the body, with the pressure as produced, and with changes as have and are coming about with the functioning of organs affected through this portion of system, that which - BEARING upon the lymph producing portions of the body, as affected from same, sympathetically - have their resultant forces manifesting in the plexus of the hypogastric and pneumogastric system. Hence conditions, reflexly, in the sympathetic nervous system, and the body becomes easily irritated at times, and at others over sympathetic. Again we find that of a different reaction entirely, when the reactions are as of hardness of opinion, or of the MENTAL reaction to same. In the action as produced on system, in that the lymph becomes involved in the jejunum region, also in that of the plexus as affects the assimilation and the glands that take from the chyle that of digested or new blood, these become involved in the
190-1 Page 2
pressure as is produced from the region, and must eventually - without change - affect this portion of the system, either as to the creating of floating forms of globules, that would become systems in themselves, or attaching self to some portion of the system, produce pressure on either gland, or that of the sympathetic system.
5. In the removing of the condition at present, would be EASILY handled; while later, when conditions became acute, these would present a different character of condition to be met with.
6. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS, brain forces very good.
7. The sympathetics, as related to the sensory system, much of that condition as is seen through that as given, respecting effects being produced on the sympathetic nerve system from the lack of proper nutriment from the ganglia in the region of the 4th and 5th lumbar, and resultant effects in the ganglia of the 3rd and 4th cervical. These reflex only.
8. In the functioning of the throat, bronchials, lungs, larynx - here again, sympathetically, we find at times the tendency of the throat and bronchials to become dry, lack of secretions as radiate from nerve reaction with blood supply through the ganglia of the upper cervicals, as given. Retraction from the condition existent in the lumbar region.
9. Lungs good.
10. Heart's action very good, save at the periods when depression or exultation in the reaction of nerve system show. Then we have rather the suppressed, or below normal pressure, than an above normal or high pressure.
11. In digestive system, this very good - save as to responding to various digestive fluids as are secreted in system when the reaction through sympathetic system to the hypogastric plexus causes an over acid or over alkalin; though the tendency in system is for the acid reaction. Hence those properties as carry much of iron or silicon often disagree with the body, when nominal assimilation, from the view of those of pathological conditions, should take place; yet from the nerve reflex condition, this is brought about, as given, by the creating of too severe or too great amount of fluids as should react in the form of digesting or producing proper condition for assimilation, which - in an inactive, or improperly acted upon - is the same as indigestion, or undigested, or too much of the acid force to act properly with the system as goes through the digestive channel. Knowing then, as this affects directly the jejunum, as given, this portion of system then suffers, and at times there is the tendency of the feeling of the
190-1 Page 3
fullness, or bloated condition across the diaphragm, and below. This being the reaction of the condition as given.
12. In the functioning of liver, spleen, the duodenum - these we find, under conditions, nominally function near normal, save as an over sympathetic condition may affect same.
13. Kidneys, organs of the pelvis, these show the greater strain through conditions as has been given, as does also those plexus as radiate through the lower extremities at times, producing a tingling through the lower limbs, from the lack of full circulation to this portion of body.
14. To meet the needs, then, of the conditions as we find them at the present, first we would take these properties as a medicinal activity, but rather as the aiding to bringing the proper vibratory forces for the body as assimilation reacts through the system. Hence we will find that the pathological effect of properties upon the body are to work WITH the vibration as is created in system at time of digestive forces in their reaction.
15. To 4 ounces of simple syrup, add: Tincture Valerian.....................1 ounce, Elixir Calisaya.......................2 ounces, 10% solution Iodide of Potassium.....40 minims, 10% solution Bromide of Potassium....20 minims, Tincture of Capsici...................1 minim, Oil of Sassafras......................5 minims.
16. Shake solution together before the dose is taken, and do not take more than one dose during a day. Not that the properties are harmful, but that the assimilation may take place in the manner as to create the proper vibratory forces within the body.
17. Then we would, as these properties are taken, have those ADJUSTMENTS made - either chiropractically or osteopathically - in the lumbar and cervical regions. These, we will find, will, with the proper vibration set in body, bring about the near normal force, preventing the re-occurence of these conditions in the body. Changing the forces as are effective in the serums as created in the various functioning glands, both in the lower portion and upper portion of body, producing a more nominal vibration to the sympathetic system. Ready for questions.
18. (Q) What time during the day would be best to take the medicinal properties? (A) Just before retiring.
19. (Q) What is the dose? (A) Teaspoonful either in water or plain.
190-1 Page 4
20. (Q) Detail osteopath treatment, and how often, and how many? (A) These should be taken, preferably, every other day, until at least sixteen are taken, or until there is proper alignment in the lumbar and cervical region with those of the dorsals and sacrals.
21. That is all the questions.
22. Do this, and we will find the much BETTERED conditions. As to diet, with this treatment we will find, while the system or body should not tempt itself, but that those of the forces as are creative in energy producing in body will re-vibrate more properly, or will be more easily assimilated, and the body may eat that it chooses to control its own weight, or its own vitality; for often an individual may harm self by the reduction of that necessary in the system to store energy in a vital form, or way, or by cutting off certain vitamins from self through foods, then create an unbalanced condition wherein that the impulse from radial centers as come through- out the system are in an improper manner reacting in the body. Here we find, in this PARTICULAR body, these are not WHOLLY the case - through this a portion of the condition that assists the conditions REMAINING in their present state.
23. Then, the diet would be a NOMINAL one - as the body is a very good dietician for itself.
24. Do as we have given, and we will bring many more days, and those of a much EASIER, as pertaining to physical conditions in the body. We are through for the present. Copy to Cayce Hospital
