1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body. You will answer the questions she has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, [1834].
3. Now as we find, there is something of a complication of disturbances which prevent the better normal physical reactions to the body.
4. The conditions which have caused and do as yet cause a great deal of disturbance in the digestive system may be called the basis of the disturbance, but as we find they are rather the RESULT of other disturbing conditions.
5. These are the conditions then as we find them with this body, [1834] we are speaking of:
6. In the blood supply there are the indications of the disturbance through the digestive forces of the system, in the manner that same have affected or do affect the circulation as related to the heart AND the kidneys, through the liver - of course - or upper hepatic circulation.
7. These as we find, through the general reactions in same, have produced a plethoric condition in the colon itself.
8. Hence first the disturbance or inactivity in the eliminating forces of the body; then producing through the gastric forces a condition in the lower portion of the duodenum - causing in the pyloric portion of the stomach a thickening or a caking in the wall of same.
9. These cause a regurgitation, until there has been the back-flow of the hydrochloric into the pyloric portion of the stomach itself.
10. While these have been aided - in relieving the tension here, and while we would not change in the immediate those applications nor any of the properties which have been outlined for the body, and especially the dietetics that have been outlined for same, WE WOULD relieve the tensions

in the colon area.
11. This we would do not only to carry off and to reduce the pressures that are caused in the circulatory forces between the liver and the heart and the kidneys, but to remove the poisons also from the system.
12. Use, then, the high colonics - using a soda-saline solution; but DO NOT HAVE ANY where there is not used afterwards an intestinal antiseptic which is of an alkaline nature in its reaction - such as Glyco-Thymoline.
13. Use a level teaspoonful of baking soda and a heaping teaspoonful of table salt to each quart and a half of water used for the enema, having the water body-temperature. After each thorough cleansing in this manner, THEN follow same with the Glyco-Thymoline solution - at least a tablespoonful of Glyco-Thymoline to the quart of water that is last used; this, of course, used separately, and NOT combined WITH the soda-saline solution, but used AFTERWARDS.
14. We would have such a thorough cleansing in this manner about every ten days, until four or five such colonics have been taken.
15. And then when there has been gained more of an equilibrium, we would give the further instructions for the complicated forces or reactions which have entered or do enter into the causes of the disturbances.
16. Ready for questions.
17. (Q) What causes extreme sensitiveness in the coccyx when sitting down? (A) Pressures as produced upon the colon area by the very plethoric condition as we have indicated that exists - as it works with or produces the pressure upon the sphincter muscular forces as well as the nerve forces through the whole area of the colon.
18. (Q) Please explain condition of blood pressure. (A) As indicated, it is the toxic forces that are the cause of the blood pressure upon the circulatory forces between heart, liver and kidneys. The greater ability to reduce same is through the use of the colon irrigations. And then when there is the relieving of the pressures through the applications being used for the disturbance in the digestive center, these may be better accorded that necessary for the bettering of the condition.
19. (Q) What caused stomach ulcer? (A) As just indicated - first the pressures produced in the colon, and then the regurgitation to the lower end of the duodenum, and then regurgitation - or the acid entering in such quantities to the lower or pyloric end of the
1834-1 Page 3
stomach as to cause this thickening. And this, of course, in turn, by superacidity and the natural pressure, caused the great pains and the tendencies for the strains upon same.
20. (Q) Has it been corrected? (A) As we have indicated and given here, these are the EFFECTS and NOT the causes! These, then, are being allayed; and when the system has been adjusted from the ACUTE condition - beginning with the conditions to allay the pressure - THEN we may give that as to be helpful in removing the causes. Let's DO NOT MIX the conditions; else we may cause greater disturbances than have existed! Do as has been outlined for the ulceration - or it is laceration, rather than ulceration, and caking in the lower portion of the stomach, or the pyloric portion. Remove much of the drosses and aid in reducing the blood pressures BY the colonics - at least every ten days, until these have been cleansed, see? Then when the body is some improved (being mindful of the diet especially, throughout), we may give the further instructions.
