Time of Reading 4:15 to 4:20 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Virginia. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes. We have the body here; this we have had before. There are the tendencies in the present for a disregarding of the diets that have been indicated, in such measures as to make for - with the activities of the body - tendencies towards an acidity through the system, and a lack of the proper eliminations.
2. If we will use the diets that are alkalin-creating in the system, we find we will make for the proper eliminations - especially if there will be the greater activity of the body; and we will overcome the tendency for nervousness, for the accumulations in the lymph circulation to make for blemishes or red spots or blackheads, and the tendencies for the inability of the body to concentrate. For with a torpid liver, with the acidity in the system, all of these make for pressures upon the nervous energies of the body.
3. We would follow rather the alkalin diet. Rather we would give those things which the body should NOT eat:
4. No white bread at ANY time. Not great quantities at any time of Irish potatoes, though the jackets of the baked potato may be taken provided not too much of the pulp is used; just the peeling and that close to same. No bananas. No raw apples. No quantities of cooked cabbage. RAW cabbage may be taken. Red cabbage may be taken.
5. Eat two, three or four pears each day, whether this is just before retiring or for breakfast. Citrus fruits should be a portion of the diet each day.
6. Ready for questions.
7. (Q) What is the general condition of my body? (A) It has been indicated.
8. (Q) What is the condition of my eyes and do I need glasses? (A) Not if you will take the poisons out of your system, and make for a normal activity; using the head and neck exercises at times, plenty of exercise in the open, the arm and head and neck and body exercises that the body knows!

Just take time to do them!
9. (Q) What is cause and cure of the condition around my waist? (A) Poisons in the system.
10. (Q) Should I engage in any athletics? (A) Not only the training for same, but the activities are good for the body!
11. (Q) What is cause of dizziness, and becoming so easily confused? (A) Acidity!
12. (Q) What causes my feet to get cold just before getting out of bed each morning? (A) Acidity. Pressures in the system and the lack of diffusion or proper exercise. Poor eliminations. Again all comes from acidity in the body. Do as we have indicated for the better conditions of this body, [361].
