1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions she has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. There are a great many changes in the general physical and mental body since last we had same here. These as we find are in those conditions where, if there are the proper precautions taken, now, and the activities are in such a way and manner that the body may be rid of the after effects of the uric acid arising from the effects of the ether and gas, there may be the near to normal mental and physical reactions.
4. As we find, precautions must be taken as to getting the feet damp and wet, of being in the open without a covering on the head and neck; and added to the system we would have such a stimuli as to correctly balance the blood and especially the lymph supply of the system.
5. Hence we find it would be well for the body to take two White's Cod Liver Oil Tablets each evening, and two Codiron tablets each morning with the meal, you see. The amount here of the cod liver oil and the vitamins as come with or through the activity of these being assimilated by the system will build greater resistance, especially to the lymph and emunctory circulation - which is needed to rid the system of the effects of those activities which were given to suppress the nerve forces.
6. For these tend to clog and clot through the network as it were of the lymph and emunctories, especially.
7. Hence a gentle massage taken about once a month, as a Swedish massage, would especially be good for this body; first a little sweat produced by a cabinet bath or by being wrapped in a sheet or flannel, and THEN A THOROUGH MASSAGE with cocoa butter AND olive oil - over the whole body. Massage TOWARD the center of the body always, so that the eliminations may be kept the better.

8. KEEP AWAY FROM SEDATIVES OF every nature! Not even Coca Cola or ANY drink that carries any influence, as of wine, beer or spirits frumenti - these are especially harmful! Coffee and tea should be eliminated, for the time being, as much as possible.
9. Do this.
