1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [808]; this we have had before.
2. As we find, there are better reactions in the body than we have had at any time here before. While there are, of course, weaknesses, or inclinations in the body, from the lack of the activity or the overactivity of portions of the system as has been indicated where weaknesses have existed, but the GLANDULAR system is functioning the nearer normal.
3. There are those inclinations still in the digestive forces for the system to be upset, thus causing too much acidity or the inclination for gas to form through the abdominal area - or a souring as it were from the lack of the lacteal ducts' reaction.
4. Thus the recurrent or reflex conditions concurrent with such as to produce a toxic reaction and some headache, tiredness and debilitation.
5. But in the main we find conditions very, very good.
6. As we find, we would keep then those precautions as to the diet and for the regular bodily reactions, keeping the exercises for the general activity in the open when possible.
7. Occasionally, when there are long periods of dark, sultry - or dark days and little of the sunshine, we would use the Sun Light or the Ultra-Violet Light. These applications would be very good.
8. Also the body-vibratory force occasionally of the Radio-Active Appliance would be good.
9. And a general manipulation or relaxation comes in very well at times to keep a balance; but these treatments would not be as a course but rather WHEN needed.
10. These we would do, and we will find we will keep this body near to normal conditions.
11. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) Should I continue to take Atomidine?
808-7 Page 2
(A) This as we find would be better farther and farther apart in the periods; that is, take only one drop of a morning before any meal is taken, for three to four days once each month. Then say, beginning at fifteenth or twentieth take for three to four days, then the next fifteenth or twentieth take it for three to four days.
13. (Q) Is my diet correct? (A) The diet is very good; and especially if altered or changed according to the necessary foods to carry the vitamins that are the sunshine vitamins during the winter periods especially. A and D.
14. (Q) If my abdomen is covered, would it be beneficial to take the ultra-violet ray sun baths without the glass in between? (A) This would have to be covered with lead and not just with pad, see? And these are very well - the ultra-violet baths - but be sure the rays are sufficiently far from the body as not to cause too much superficial irritation. At least fifty inches, and if the Mercury Vapor Light is used - which is the preferable - do not use for more than a minute to a minute and a half, even at this distance; for this is an over or a super-abundance.
15. (Q) Where can the following ingredients for a cold prescription [as in 808-6] be obtained? Elixir or Essence of Wild Ginseng - (A) (Interrupting) As we find, all of these should be obtained from crude drugs and then these made under the supervision of a chemist. These, of course, may be had in various places, but these may be obtained from any crude drug house, see? The properties, then, or the essences or elixirs of these would be made in such form or quantity that they may be combined, see?
