1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions which may be submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. Here we find the conditions which have been indicated heretofore - the disturbance through the duodenum and the colon, owing to cold, congestion, and LACK of sufficient openings or purgings for that digested to pass through.
4. Too much picric acid has been a part of the diet here. [GD's note: I think EC had been on an apple diet for a day; had to stop, he was suffering so.]
5. Here, as has been just indicated, is where there IS the inflammation internally, and NOT the exterior or the superficial able to take care of same.
6. As we find, we would have the better eliminations, keeping away from those things that are CAUSES for the activity which arouses the inflammation in the gastric flow. For these, owing to the quantities or excesses produced in the lymph, are causing same to be very much disturbed; and may be called lymphitis in the gastric flow of the duodenum and the stomach.
7. Then, we would keep the eliminations; very plain foods, not so much of greases or fats. None of fruits of ANY nature. Use Serutan as a bulk or weight for the better eliminations, but this will necessitate keeping such as the alkalizers for the body.
8. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) What should be taken for eliminations? (A) As just indicated. Serutan as bulk; Castoria and any of the forms of alkalizers or salts.
10. (Q) Just what foods should be left off? (A) As indicated. No fruits of ANY nature!
11. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file
