1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2276]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, there are great improvements in the general physical forces of the body. While there are some conditions which have not improved, or have not CORRECTED themselves as well as others - this should mean, then, a continuation of those applications as we have indicated, until there are no traces of the adhesions in the lower portion of the lacteal duct or through the caecum area.
4. These are conditions as we find them in the present:
5. The blood supply shows a great deal of improvement.
6. Those activities through the digestive system are better, but as indicated there are tendencies or inclinations produced in portions of the duodenum and upper part of the jejunum, where there have been lacerations from intestinal disturbances; and then, with this abnormal pressure as caused this, some inflammation; and a lick - as pressing against the end of a counter, which was some five or six years ago.
7. These still need the massage, as will tend to break up the adhesion - or KEEP it broken up, for it is broken.
8. And then with supplying food values in the intestinal system, in the form to aid in keeping down tendencies for any inflammation, we will continue to bring improvements to the body.
9. We would keep the proper alignment through the nerve system by the osteopathic manipulations and the general activities of the body.
10. And we will find the body able to continue with those activities that are desired.
11. There is NO incoordination - only those inclinations indicated as a breaking between the sensory system and the

cerebrospinal. This is in those areas where the greater subluxations have existed, and these have been released - but as yet there has not been brought about the complete impulse of activity; as indicated at times in hesitancy of speech; of the tendency when studying or pondering to HEAR that which does not always appear to be heard by others, yet at other times not hearing when first spoken to.
12. These tendencies will gradually disappear.
13. As food values for the intestinal system we would take the Olive Oil rather often, but not in such quantities as to cause regurgitation or belching that hinders - or indicates hindrances in being assimilated. But take it in small sips - all during the day. If it regurgitates or causes belching, then lessen the quantity but keep on taking it - even if just a few drops are put on the tongue at a time.
14. Once or twice a week drink an ounce of Saffron Tea, made from the Yellow Saffron - American Saffron. Make the tea by pouring a cup of boiling water over a teaspoonful of the Saffron and allowing it to steep as ordinary tea. These would be the proportions, you see. This as combined with the gastric flow will aid in creating a better balance.
15. Ready for questions.
16. (Q) Should all present treatments be continued, and in the same manner? (A) All present treatments should be continued in the same manner, only adding these things as indicated here.
17. (Q) Will he be ready to resume school responsibilities Sept. 9th? (A) He should be ready to resume school responsibilities. But, because of the school responsibilities, do not give up too many of the suggested treatments, you see.
18. (Q) Is it now safe for him to drive a car back and forth to school? (A) It should be, after September 9th or 12th at least.
19. (Q) Is the gastro-intestinal trouble in part responsible for the condition, and what should be done for it? or will the removal of the lesion also correct this gastro condition? (A) As indicated, this was a part of the trouble; and the food values as well as the osteopathic corrective measures and the properties indicated - that will be supplied as an aid to the digestive forces of the body - will assist in removing these.
20. (Q) When these directions are followed, will the trouble in voice and speech also be entirely overcome? (A) Entirely overcome.
21. (Q) What food values for the intestinal trouble?
2276-2 Page 3
(A) Keep away from the acid-forming foods. This does not mean that no acids are to be taken, but those that are acid-forming. Citrus fruits should be a part of the diet. Plenty of all foods that carry Vitamins B-1, G and the like. All foods that are by nature yellow in color carry the vitamins most beneficial to this body. Those activities that arise from such are most helpful.
22. (Q) Should B-1 injections be continued, and how much? (A) We would put these farther and farther apart, AS those foods are taken that carry same.
23. (Q) Should he take hydrochloric acid with meals? (A) We would take the hydrochloric acid PREFERABLY in the form known as ACIGEST, rather than in the tablets or in just the acid. We would take a teaspoonful, or nearly a teaspoonful of the Acigest stirred in a full glass of raw milk, once each day - with the evening meal, preferably, for that is the period of most relaxation. Do these, and we should bring bettered conditions for this body.
24. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file (8/24/40 GD's note: Acigest is manufactured and distributed by the Colloidal Health Products Corp., Atten. A. A. Nichoson, Greenvale, L.I., N.Y. It sells for $1 a bottle - or $1.50. According to the Readings, it is the best way to take hydrochloric acid. See Alkalin-Reacting Diet List [which was enclosed].) )
