1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [647]; this we have had before.
2. As we find, there are some changes; and these are NOT for the betterment.
3. There are those conditions that would require rather the abstinence from starches and sugars, especially sugars. These have made and do make, with those tendencies, this heaviness in the circulation, this condition that disturbs through the activities of the kidneys; the nausea and the dizziness that arise, with the headaches that make for disagreeable conditions, as well as those tendencies for the roughness in the circulatory system on the surface in portions of the body.
4. Then, as we find, there should be only the use of sugars of the NATURAL nature from the vegetables and the fruits that might be taken.
5. Those types of meat at all when taken should be of fish, or liver, or tripe, or the like; or those niceties of the fowl, as the heart, the liver, the gizzard - these portions of same, provided they are not fried, may be a part of the diet.
6. The only sweets would be the honey and the honeycomb, in not too great quantities.
7. These, with the general activities of keeping the system in such a manner that the eliminations may be increased for the purifying of the circulation through the kidneys - and the eliminations from the alimentary canal increased by the use of the colonic irrigations - would make for those tendencies necessary, and for the betterments of these conditions of this body, [647].
8. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) What is causing rheumatism and remedy? (A) The poisons and accumulations in the system, and the abstinence from the sugars and starches will aid in this

direction; but the more serious troubles are those tendencies in the pancreas and the activities in the excretory functioning to eliminate the toxic forces from the system without the increasing of sugar that is making for the sedimentary conditions arising from the toxic forces of the kidneys themselves; or the uremic poisoning makes for these, which is the worse character of this disturbance.
10. (Q) Is there any sign of cancer? (A) No signs of cancer, other than the after effects of the character of disturbances that have been indicated. However, under such a character of condition, if irritations were caused - or violent or very strong astringents used - they would make for a reaction in these directions. But if there are the tendencies set up for the eliminations of these poisons from the system, with those conditions as indicated for the applications, it would be for the betterment of the body.
11. (Q) Should the teeth come out? (A) The teeth will be a contributory cause to the conditions, but we would make for a great deal of cleansing in the system before such be undertaken; else we may have such imperfect coagulation as to cause distresses in this activity that would be very harmful for the better conditions of the body. For the nervous system and the activity of the blood supply in its coagulations are not in order for this to be done, other than a little at the time; and preferably after there has been a week or ten days or more of cleansing the body.
12. (Q) Is she working too hard for her age? (A) Working too hard for the conditions that exist which disturb the body.
13. (Q) Where could she live to her health's advantage? (A) Wherever there may be the better indications for the activities in those directions respecting the diet as a PRINCIPAL condition, see?
14. (Q) Are the osteopathic treatments still necessary? (A) Osteopathic treatments would be an aid; but, as we find, the greater necessity in the present is for the changes in these directions indicated.
15. (Q) Any other suggestions at this time that will be of help? (A) Much might be said, but these need to be done! Do that.
