Time of Reading 3:55 to 4:05 P.M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., W. Va. (Physical Suggestion)
1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions he has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. In some respects we find conditions are very good, and in others rather unsatisfactory - as there is the inclination for a great deal of sluggishness through the eliminating channels.
3. This tends to make for the accumulations of poisons in the system, hence tending to make for an unbalancing in the equilibrium, or to raise the blood pressure.
4. As we find, if there will be given rather regularly the high colonics - not just enemas, but the high colonics, in a SYSTEMATIC manner - with the osteopathic adjustments to relieve the tensions especially through the areas from the 9th dorsal upward, but occasionally making for a coordination with the lower portion - we would keep down the blood pressure, we would keep away from the gases on the stomach, poor digestion, or sometimes a disturbance that arises with the headaches, especially of mornings, and the bad taste in the mouth, and an excess of perspiration at times which becomes disturbing to the body.
5. These should be done systematically.
6. Keep away from too much MEAT, especially in the warm weather; and no red meats - that is, the inclinations for the raw or rare steak, or ham. No hog meat, no pork of any kind. These should be tabu for this body.
7. And if we will do these, we will find better conditions for this body.
8. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) What is condition of heart and kidneys? (A) As indicated, these effects arise from disturbances from the poor eliminations; and if there are those activities as suggested for better drainages to be set up osteopathically, as well as in the colonics to remove the

toxic forces from the system, we will find much better conditions. Stay more to vegetables and such, than meats.
10. (Q) What is the cause of coughing after meals, with no appearance of cold? (A) Poor digestion, slow elimination or evacuation or digestion through the stomach and duodenum.
11. (Q) Is body too fat? If so, how reduce? (A) Keep away from meats, and take grape juice before the meals and at bedtime - about an ounce and a half of Welch's Grape Juice with an ounce - or not quite so much - of plain water, taken just before the meals. This will tend to keep from so much rich foods. And beware of too much of pastries and the like. Doing these, we will reduce, as well as making for a more normalcy in the activities of the body. For it will reduce the excess sugar. Though this is sugar in the grape juice, it is a different character and will produce a better reaction through the alimentary canal. Do not take this just once or twice a day - take it three to four times a day, and EVERY DAY for a month! and then see the difference! The colonics - in the beginning take about three in the first two weeks, and then they may be a week or ten days apart. The manipulations osteopathically - take at least six, and these about two or three days apart.
