1. HLC: 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, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the desires of the body here, [2426].
3. Now, as we find, there are disturbing conditions which prevent the better normal functioning. These are in a manner rather complex, but are primarily of a glandular nature, and the attempts to supply influences without those conditions being taken into consideration.
4. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [2426].
5. The blood supply indicates the impoverishment of the body, as well as - from a smear - the lack of elements as should be carried in same for better activity, from lack of proper activity of glandular forces in the system.
6. Thus we have an impoverishment in the form of lack of proper assimilation, poor eliminations, and the complications that arise from deficiency or overactivity of organic functioning in the system.
7. We find that these bring greater nerve tensions at times, great distresses to many portions of the system where - with the weaknesses - at times there is lack of proper activity between portions of segments along the cerebrospinal system.
8. Thus at times these act as rebuffs or preventatives of the supplying even of sufficient of the activities of organs and nerve forces from that which is assimilated.
9. These also have produced, with nerve tension, the special or specific conditions that exist with the organs of regeneration. These prevent the normal activity at Periods and the normal activity in the functionings of the system; as well as the disturbances indicated through the glandular
2426-1 Page 2
force, nerve conditions, poor activity of the organs in assimilation at times and distributions - as indicated by superficial conditions here where the mole has been attempted to be removed.
10. As we find, then, there should be the applications - that we find indicated as best for the body in the present:
11. First, DO NOT continue with the taking of the vitamins or treatments now being taken, while the body is in that stage of preparations FOR these activities to be administered for the body as WE will later indicate.
12. These then, as we find, we would do:
13. First, for at least a period of twenty-one days, we would take Atomidine internally. Begin with one minim (drop) in half a glass of water each morning before a meal is taken. Every OTHER day increase the amount one minim, until five minims are being taken.
14. Then leave off one day. Then begin with two minims, and every other day increase the dosage two minims, until ten minims are being taken.
15. Follow this through for that period of the twenty-one days, see?
16. Then leave off the Atomidine.
17. Throughout that period let the diet be of those foods the more easily assimilated. Use rather the prepared milks, or those that are condensed in such a manner that there is the addition of milk to prepare same - as in Malted Milk; and we will find this should NOT disagree, nor should the body be allergic to same, if the Atomidine is being taken in the manner indicated. Do not overburden the body with this, however, especially in the first five to ten days.
18. Have plenty of fruits and vegetables; these should be the principal diet through the twenty-one day period.
19. To be sure, cereals may be taken, especially the steel cut oats and the whole wheat cracked and the like, but these cooked a long time.
20. If meats, only a little of sea food or fowl; though never any fried foods.
21. After the twenty-one day period - then begin first with a GENTLE RELAXING treatment, osteopathically administered. Special attention should be given to the brachial plexus area, or from the 3rd and 4th dorsal to the first cervicals, and the 9th dorsal, and the lumbar axis. Begin at the lumbar and work UPWARD, rather than beginning upward and working downward. Have at least fifteen to sixteen treatments. Give them at least twice every week.
22. As the osteopathic treatments are begun, then we would begin to administer the vitamins again. But the more
2426-1 Page 3
beneficial of these, as we find, would be had in the combination found in ADIRON - for this body. For, the A and G, with the Cod Liver Oil, and the character of Iron that is with same, should assimilate with this system. Take two tablets each day; one at the noon meal and one at the evening meal.
23. We would also use the lights - that is, the Infra Red Light, say on Tuesdays, for at least twenty to thirty minutes; and the Ultra-Violet Ray on Thursdays, but let this be rather the Mercury Quartz Light instead of the Carbon Light - this should be at least thirty-six to forty-eight inches (36" to 48") from the body, and do not take this treatment longer than a minute in the beginning - though as the osteopathic adjustments are made it may be extended to as long as three minutes, but not longer, see?
24. After the completing of the Atomidine, which will have purified the glandular system, we would then add the activity specifically for the thyroid; that is, we would then take the thyroid extract. This should be rather mild in its nature, and taken only about three times each week.
25. Also, after the Atomidine course is completed and the osteopathic treatments begun, we may increase the quantity of the foods; also we would then add the beef juices, though not too much of the flesh itself. We do not mean beef broth, but beef juice taken as medicine - not as food. This will give strength, is easily assimilated, and will give vitality to the body.
26. Ready for questions.
27. (Q) Will the Dinshah Spectro-chrome light filter system do me any good? (A) Not under the present conditions. Do rather as we have outlined.
28. (Q) Is bitter chocolate, or bittersweet chocolate hard for me to digest? (A) Any of the chocolates are hard to digest at the present. These may be taken in moderation as conditions progress, but should never be taken in any large quantity.
29. (Q) Will I ever be able to have a baby, and if so, how soon? (A) This will depend upon whether or not the corrections are made through the lumbar area. If so, and there is the ability of the system to build up, it should be possible within a year.
30. (Q) Are the minerals and vitamins I am now consuming able to help me? (A) Not until the system is so adapted that it may assimilate, and then we would take rather that combination of vitamins in the ADIRON, as indicated.
2426-1 Page 4
31. (Q) Do climatic conditions have a great deal to do with my troubles? (A) Not so much, save from the mental reactions.
32. (Q) Do eggs disagree with me? (A) Eggs disagree with the body at present. In the second week of the osteopathic treatments, when these may be added gradually to the diet, we would take only the yolk - which should be soft boiled, or the like - and little or none of the white, or albumin.
33. (Q) What should I do about the mole on my neck, on which the doctor put some acid for removal? (A) Not anything in the present. As those properties suggested begin to take effect, and there are the adjustments in the circulation, we find that these will gradually take away the conditions. We would keep same soft with a little of an equal combination of Mutton Tallow (melted), Spirits of Turpentine and Spirits of Camphor; not so much put on the area of the mole itself as the area about it, so that it will be absorbed by the effect of the properties through the radiation, see?
34. (Q) Will I ever be able to play tennis, and other active sports again? (A) If so desired, and should be a part of the exercises as conditions are improved.
35. (Q) Is it possible for me to attain a weight of 135 pounds? (A) A hundred and fifty if you desire it, after a little bit! It'll take six months or a year, though, before you can begin to put on that much weight! Do as we have indicated, if there would be brought the better conditions for this body of [2426].
36. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file " " Mr. David E.

ADIRON is manufactured by The Lawrence Laboratories, Chicago, Ill. According to the Reading, this is the best balanced vitamin tablet on the market, and especially for you; but is also not to be taken until you begin the course of treatments from the osteopath.
