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; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [3185].
3. As we find, there are disturbing conditions preventing the better physical functioning of the body. These have to do primarily with the eliminations of the body. While there are nominally fair eliminations, for some time back there has been a condition that has caused the creation of an excess of disturbances affecting varied organs, and now affecting the superficial circulation - or that through the lymph and emunctories.
4. Hence this disturbance in the impulses from various centers is causing a rash.
5. The cause of these occurred some time back, and still there are some disturbances as the effects of same. A catarrhal condition exists through the soft tissue of the antrum, face, throat and head. We find that this, having attacked the lachrymal ducts, causes a prolapsus. While this condition has been coming on gradually, it has upset the hearing. The correcting of the causes will materially aid the hearing, though will not entirely correct it.
6. With the corrections being made for the hearing, also correct lesions and subluxations that have been produced along various centers in the cerebrospinal system, where there is not the coordination that should be between sympathetic and cerebrospinal nervous systems - owing to lesions there.
7. These we find particularly in those areas from the 6th dorsal to the upper cervicals. More principally in the 3rd cervical and 1st, 2nd and 3rd dorsal.
8. These should be corrected osteopathically, also there
3185-1 Page 2
should be the preparations for the osteopathic finger surgery, requiring at least six to ten treatments in preparation and would materially aid general eliminations, provided there will be taken a compound which we will indicate through these periods.
9. Add these ingredients in the order named: Sulphur.................1 level tablespoonful, Rochelle Salts..........1 level tablespoonful, Bicarbonate of Soda.....1 level tablespoonful. Mix these thoroughly together, and take regularly for certain periods as will be indicated, as follows: Each morning for five days take a level teaspoonful of this mixture stirred in a half of a glass of water, then fill the glass, and take this before the morning meal. Do this five days in succession, then leave off for three days, then take again for five days more and so on - until the whole quantity is taken.
10. These combined with the osteopathic corrections, as we find, will be most helpful to the body.
11. In the corrections that are made, coordinate the lumbar areas with those corrections made in the upper dorsal and throughout the cervical. Also correct those conditions in the feet, the bursa especially in the heel and the toe.
12. Over those areas where the rash occurs in the present, especially around the torso, dust with stearate of zinc powder with balsam in same.
13. In the matter of diet through these periods - have those foods that are easily assimilated; not too much of any fats, but, of course, fish and fowl should be included in the diet. Not too much of starches or of white breads, but all reinforced breads. Let the vitamins be more in the reinforced foods than in vitamins themselves; such as in the cereals, the breads and the character of vegetables. Include beets often in the diet, but do not have these - nor any of the salad dressings where too much vinegar or acid is used in same.
14. Do not eat cereals at the same meal when citrus fruits are taken, but alternate these, taking cereals one morning and citrus fruit the next; such as oranges, grapefruit, pineapple, lemon; but do not eat the cereals when citrus fruits of any kind are taken.
15. The only vitamins we would take would be the B-1 complex; the One-a-Day brand would be preferable. The rest of the vitamins may be added in the diets, if those indicated are followed.

16. These, as we find should bring much better conditions for the body.
17. Ready for questions.
18. (Q) What suggestions can you make for overcoming the great weariness under which I work so much of the time? (A) This comes from the lack of vitamin B-1, which we have suggested to be taken, which is the only one other than contained in the normal foods. Of course, B-1 is in many of the foods suggested but supplement with a vitamin B-1 complex.
19. (Q) How may I improve my eyesight without resorting to glasses? (A) The head and neck exercise, as well as the regular treatments indicated through the upper dorsal and through the cervicals will be a material aid. But having a certain rest period, and taking the time, morning and evening to do the head and neck exercise would be beneficial. But we would use glasses when reading or writing.
20. We are through with this reading. Two copies to Self (one for the osteopath - Let us have his name and address.) Copy to Ass'n file " " Miss Goodall for indexing (8/30/43 GD's notes at time of reading: Directions for head and neck exercise: Standing or sitting erect, bend head forward three times, backward three times, to the right side three times, to the left side three times, circle to the right three times, circle to the left three times. Do this regularly night and morning. During the periods that the Sulphur is being taken, it is important that you do not get the feet damp or get caught in the rain so as to become damp. Of course, this does not mean you shouldn't bathe, but do not get the feet or clothing damp, or the head wet, or go bathing or the like - for this is dangerous while the Sulphur is active in the body.)
