1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now we find the abnormal conditions in this body have to do with the functioning of organs and the effect this condition has brought to bear on the system throughout. Its effect and its relation in this effect on other organs.
2. Now these are conditions as we find in this body, Mrs. [4201], we are speaking of. The blood is full and very good in its elemental force, yet carries the effect of poisons as being left within the system and not eliminated through the proper channels, hence the condition that we have in the extremities at times, across the hips, through the shoulders and through the neck producing the pains to the muscular and intercostal nerves and ligaments. The amount of blood is very good, the number of the leukocyte and red blood are sufficient for their action, yet we must, to relieve the condition in the system, not only relieve the condition that produced this effect, but that it, the blood, affects within the system. The nerve forces within the body are very good, the brain force or the seat of all the manifestations or action within the body is above the normal effect, both on self and its individual influences on others and is far-reaching. The action of the nerve centers along the spinal column are very good, save where we find circulation of blood has caused congestion of centers that give to their corresponding muscle and tissue the reaction of the poisons not eliminated from the system, such as we find at the fifth dorsal plexus, the second plexus below the solar plexus and the sacrum and ilium plexus. The organs themselves we find through the digestive tract, there is an intimation of the reflex condition as produced by the liver in functioning in its normal way, for we have had toxins absorbed in the system from a condition that existed through the intestinal tract, where we had impacts or lesions formed in the intestinal tract itself, this producing the poisons in the system. Sympathetically, they have become the affecting condition through the trunk portion of the body. With the inability of the liver to function, the kidneys suffer from the overtaxation, hence we not only produce in the system the poisons from uric acid but from the liver forces too.

These then affect the body from the different angles, as we have seen. The irritation as produced through the condition of the kidneys also makes irritation through the action of the bladder or the urine producing irritation in the bladder and leaving uric acid in the system.
3. To relieve or bring the normal condition in the body we would give that in the system that would produce the perfect, or as near as possible, the perfect condition through the intestinal tract giving each organ of digestion the incentive for perfect action on the system, and we would give those properties to eliminate from the blood those poisons that have been absorbed in the system and are having their effect over the body. We would take this first for the body:
4. To one gallon of water, distilled or rain water, we would add eight ounces of sage, dried. This would be simmered not boiled until reduced to one quart, strain, while warm add six ounces of gin, four ounces of cane sugar, fifteen grains of Ambergris dissolved in one ounce of grain alcohol, three drams of Balsam of Tolu dissolved before being added and added while solution is still warm. This must be shaken well when each dose is taken. The dose would be tablespoonful half an hour after meals. This may cause some nausea after the first few doses, only eat less, but keep the medicinal properties in the system. After this whole quantity is taken, we would then take these thorough vibrations with an electric vibrator along the whole length of the spine from the second cervical to the end of the spine, but especially have the vibrations deep along the lumbar and ilium plexus. While this is being taken, vibrations, which would be each evening, take these medicinal properties:
5. Plain Phosphate of soda, half teaspoon in half glass of water and add to this five drops of syrup and sarsaparilla and one drop of rectified oil of Turps. The Turps will only be given every third day. The other will be taken each morning before breakfast, see, and we will find in a little while, we will be rid of the conditions through the system, and the body will be normal again. Do that.
6. (Q) Mr. Cayce, this body imagines she has heart trouble, what causes this? (A) The pressure from the stomach, when it fills, on the fats about the heart causes the condition, hence why we should treat the blood condition as well as the digestive tract and organs specifically, see. We have outlined and given these conditions. Follow them.
7. (Q) Mr. Cayce, the body would like to know if this will

relieve the condition of the hearing? (A) With the removal of the cause of the conditions as produced we relieve the troubles caused by that condition. It will relieve those vibrations, for to loosen and cause proper elimination after those properties are taken into the system, that will produce the perfect elimination in this body.
