1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, the abnormal conditions as we find in this body has to do with the elimination from used portions of the body, and the ability or inability in either for the organs furnishing the incentive to function in a normal state.
2. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body here: The circulation, we find the blood impoverished, not only by not being sufficient forces to rebuild nor yet all of the force necessary to produce the perfect elimination and preventing there being carried back into the system that which should be eliminated through its proper channels. The number of red blood cells are deficient. There is being carried in the circulation of the blood those factors that have so increased the action of the blood supply as to prevent the proper or correct or normal conditions through the body. The condition of the nervous system and the forces exerted or exercised in the nerve energy by the conditions within the system give off to the body those poisons left in the system by the improper secretion of organs to present the more perfect union of all elemental forces throughout the system, hence the overtaxation, functioning, they function themselves in a very good manner or way, they, the organs are governed to great extent by the condition that has been produced within the system, that is, we have the conditions that may be eliminated but would be under under the forces as we have given [will give], see. The stress on the nerve energy in attempting to assist the functioning organs to have their emunctories and lymphatic forces to act in accord, they have produced lesions along the spine. There is little organic conditions in the organs themselves to produce the condition. But with the poor elimination there has been gradually, from the secretions of the expitory [excretory] glands that brought about in the system to the capillary and to the extremities, those properties necessarily making the condition through the body very unpleasant for the contraction of the muscular forces, but the action as we have given, force the contraction such a way as to give the discomfiture to the body in the sinew and ligaments in the extremities to the various plexus in

the body for they control the functioning of the organs under which they come, so as we have the nervous forces overtaxed producing quick fatigue, the numb, dullness at times to the extremities and coming in such a way as to give the low vibrations that produce over the mind forces with the physical conditions, debilitation to the blood forces over the system and prevents the strength-giving forces and energy to the whole body, either in functioning conditions of the organs or of nerve action to be controlled by the energy necessary to produce either voluntary or involuntary forces in the system.
3. To give the strength then necessary, we would create within this body, those factors necessary to give elemental force to the body. We would take then in the system these properties to give the correct forces for this body. We would take first: the water that is used for this body should carry the elements necessary to give the correct incentives to the system. They should have in their make up, magnesia, iron, sulphur, lithium, silicious [silicon], such as we would find in the spring, see.
4. (Q) Where would this body get these spring waters, Mr. Cayce? (A) With this water that is used for the system, we would take only these elements as medicinal properties for the body: Toris Compound, 1 ounce, dissolved in half pint of distilled water. To this we would add four ounces of grain alcohol, see, with two ounces of syrup of Sarsaparilla and four grains of Iodide of Potassium. The dose of this would be teaspoonful twice each day, that is, before breakfast and before retiring, see. Let the diet be for this prepare large quantities, that is, not sufficient to spoil, before it is eaten in two days, juice of beef well seasoned prepared much in this manner of the clear, good roast, would be out into small cubes or pieces, placed in a glass jar sealed without any water and then put on in water and let this water boil for an hour and a half, squeeze the juice from beef and season well with salt and as much of the hot pepper, not black, as the body can take. Use whole wheat bread and vegetables that carry a high percentage of carbons such as salsify, celery, asparagus and those of cereals that are easily digested. This water would be used for drinking water. Would be found here, you see, on Head's place, old Indian spring. Do this and we will remove these conditions, cause the body to have an appetite, the body will put on flesh and will feel many, many hears younger within six months. Do that.
5. (Q) Mr. Cayce, which one of the Head springs would you recommend to be used?
4439-1 Page 3
(A) We have just given it, the old Indian spring. Keep this water and drink no other, you see, for this body here. When the body has, for the first few weeks, acute pains, take this, but do not take often as it will only be needed occasionally, for one dose (would be prepared in capsules):
Senna.................1 grain, Licorice Compound.....1 grain, Cascara Sagrada.......1 grain, Heroin.............1/22 grain.
6. We are through.
