1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [781] - this we have had before. Many changes in the physical forces of the body at present from that as we have had here before. As we find in the present, there are elements lacking in the physical functioning body, that prevents many portions functioning in a normal manner. Hence there are accumulations and poisons in portions of the system, and others - especially in some of the glands - are drawn upon to supply necessary elements for the carrying on of the functioning of the system. Hence we have a low vitality, a lack of red blood and also of white, a form of anemia, tendency for the liver to be torpid, tendency towards hardening and a plethora condition in a portion of the spleen, a fullness in the throat and neck and glands about the kidneys make for heaviness at times in the legs and feet. These, as we find, are from poisons and accumulations.
2. While there is needed also some local attention for the teeth, and there should be a careful consideration of the diet for the body, those properties taken in a systematic manner in the form of iodine, or the Atomidine, with Calcidin, will add the elements necessary in system, provided there are the precautions taken with the diet to keep same balanced and eliminations going.
3. Keep in the open considerable, but do not become over fatigued in the hot sunshine, for this would be very detrimental and easy to make for temperatures that would be hard to combat under the existent conditions in the system.
4. Then, begin with Atomidine - five drops in half a glass of water twice each day, before breakfast and before retiring, see?
5. Just before the evening meal take one grain of Calcidin, see? This will add the calcium and an addition of iodine in a different form that will act with the respiratory system, while in the atomic form will act upon the glands of the system.

6. We would also follow, while not a strict but rather a consistent diet, as in this manner:
7. Mornings - fruit vegetables, or berries, and these altered with citrus fruits should be the principal morning meal, see?
8. In the middle of the morning; that is, nine-thirty to ten o'clock, drink a full glass of milk.
9. Noon - liquids, as vegetables strained, or meat juices that do not carry too much grease with same, and green vegetables - as cabbage, lettuce, celery, carrots, and the like.
10. Evening - the well cooked vegetables, and at least twice a week liver, tripe, pig knuckle, or the like.
11. Follow this consistently, being mindful that the eliminations are kept well in the alimentary canal. We will build for a better condition.
12. The local condition in teeth and mouth should be attended to. Be well that the throat be gargled occasionally with iodine, or the Atomidine - five drops in half a glass of water, and use a salt and soda spray occasionally either snuffed in nostrils to cleanse same, or sprayed, see? equal parts salt, soda and cream of tartar, dissolved in lukewarm water and used as a spray or snuffed in the nostrils, will cleanse the head and keep the throat in a better condition.
13. Ready for questions.
14. (Q) Regarding the growing of an extra tooth in front and upper part of mouth, should this be pulled? If so, will there be any danger in the pulling? (A) This should be X-Rayed to see the position and the condition before it is undertaken to be extracted. When found the position, and the manner in which it is, then it would be well for one UNDERSTANDING the conditions to take care of same.
15. (Q) What causes the breaking out and itching on feet, and how can it be cured? (A) This is from the poor eliminations. Local application may be made, while changes are being effected by these properties taken into the system, of witchhazel - when ready for retiring.
16. (Q) What causes the retardment in growth of the body? (A) As has been indicated, gland conditions.
17. That is all the questions regarding this body.
18. Do these, as we have outlined, in a consistent and systematic way and manner. Be mindful that not too much grease is taken, see? and when these properties taken produce irritation, or a rash (which they will if the diet is altered, or if there are properties taken improperly in
781-2 Page 3
the system with it - as too much sweets, or too much fats), then reduce the amount, but do not discontinue those things that should be taken! but discontinue those things that should not be taken as food values! We will find conditions will improve with this body.
19. We are through with this reading. Copy to Mr. [779] " " Cayce file " " Ass'n file
