1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions she has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. As we find, there are some GENERAL improvements in the physical forces of the body. These especially are in those conditions in which there is a better response of the system to the general stimulations that are given in making for a coordination of the organs and the activities of the organs in their assimilating, eliminating, and the general strengthening of the body.
4. There needs to be further applications of the osteopathic adjustments, but a more CONSISTENT activity in the diets as well as the general activities of the body itself, physically and mentally. When there is not an adhering to conditions in the diet, when there is taken those things that tend to cause greater stresses through the activity of the assimilating forces in the system, there necessarily is a hindrance to that attempting to be accomplished by the stimulating of the ganglia along the cerebrospinal system to create a normal balance so that the body may care for same.
5. Be very careful, then, in the combining of the foods. Never have any of those forces of alcohol or of hops or of ANYTHING that tends to make for the disturbing in the better assimilation for the body-forces. These tend to create an acidity, which already exists.
6. Keep the eliminations better, though there may be the necessity for the greater use of enemas for the evacuating through the stool itself. Or there may be the use of citrus fruit juices in quantities; but this would necessitate, then, that there be not too great an activity, and that nothing else be taken but the citrus fruit for five days. This would include only oranges, or oranges with lemons - no other foods - for five days. Just how many? As many as the body wants to take!

7. OR the body may eat ONLY apples for three days. No other foods except water or the like.
8. OR, if preferable, the body may go on a grape diet for four days; only grapes (with the seeds removed, of course), and no other foods for at least four days.
9. Either of these would be effective for the body. It may choose either one.
10. But after EITHER of these - that is, on the evening of the last day of such a diet - take half a teacup of Olive Oil. This would cleanse the system from the impurities, preventing the inclinations for gas formation and for this regurgitation that is taking place in the lower portion of the duodenum.
11. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) Has the glandular system improved much since starting the treatments? (A) It is somewhat improved. But as indicated, the body is overburdening itself with improper diets.
13. (Q) Is the osteopath giving me the proper treatments, and shall I continue them? (A) They should be continued. These are given very good, but there should be more cooperation with the doctor!
14. (Q) Why does the part around the right colon bother me? (A) As indicated, this is a filling of same - or an incoordination of the eliminating channels with the activities of the organs themselves. Hence, as we find, we would use one or the other of the three modes or manners of producing the better coordination. The body may choose.
15. (Q) What is wrong with my uterus? Why am I menstruating so improperly? (A) This is the general strain upon the nervous system and the effect of too much alcoholic reaction - which is from foods as well as drink.
16. (Q) Shall I continue taking Atomidine, the D.D.D. ointment, and the Listerine? (A) These are very well, and we would reduce the quantity of the Atomidine taken internally. But we would now take Atomidine douches; though, to be sure, not during the periods when the menstrual activity is upon the body - but after - every other day. Have the water body-temperature, using a teaspoonful of Atomidine to the quart and a half of water for the douche. Use a Fountain Syringe, and not a force or spray.
17. (Q) What makes my throat hoarse at times? (A) Nervous reaction, which should be relieved with the general health improved and better coordination produced.
18. (Q) Why is my hair still coming out?
1713-21 Page 3
(A) Poor circulation, and we would continue with the massage as indicated as being well for this.
19. (Q) What causes back of my neck to become stiff? and left shoulder bother me? (A) Poisons in the system. Lack of proper eliminations through the colon and through the alimentary canal. And especially the fecal forces as indicated that need to be cleansed from the colon.
20. (Q) Why did my left eye hurt me more when I was doing the head and neck exercise? (A) Because of the necessity for the increased flow to that portion of the body. A natural reaction.
21. (Q) Why does the lower part of my back hurt, and at times a spot on right side of back? (A) This is all a general condition through the system, as we have indicated, that needs to be corrected by the coordination of better eliminations from the body. Nervous pressures!
22. (Q) Do you mean the beginning of the menopause when you speak of the changing in my system? (A) The beginning, but it's at least a year or two years off yet.
23. (Q) Would you recommend an exercise to increase a better circulation? (A) Walking is the best exercise!
24. (Q) What causes deep circles under my eyes, and how can I eliminate them? (A) The lack of the elimination or coordination between the kidneys and the liver, and the effect of those activities as indicated. When there is an increasing of the better coordinations, these should disappear. Do these things as indicated, and we will bring the better forces for this body.
