1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now we find there are in this body, abnormal conditions and these may be corrected. These abnormal vibrations in portions of the body affect the blood supply and its replenishing forces. The organs of the rebuilding blood forces and the organs themselves, though the conditions is is rather that of functional condition than organic condition, though organs are involved in the effect as produced.
2. Now these are conditions as we find in this body, [4456], we are speaking of, present in this room: First, in the blood supply we find the quality and quantity of the red blood forces deficient, though the pressure is not of the normal. This is produced by the heart forces rather than of the condition of the blood itself. The elemental forces to create the new blood in the system becoming overtaxed by conditions, as we will see. Prepare the condition in the system as is found, see. The hemoglobin of blood itself, taking up the forces to such an extent, that is, used energy in furnishing vitality to the organs has become so depleted that the strain comes over the system, see, and the body has that tension as is created by that condition. The white blood or leukocyte forces we find attempt to meet the condition and the lymphatic is tended to be drawn away from its normal condition. The body tending to be below the normal in secretions, see, so we have a poor circulation, a cold hepatic circulation, a low lymphatic and capillary circulation, see.
3. In the nerve system we find the body very good for the will forces of the cerebrospinal nervous system prevent the body from breaking down entirely from nerve exhaustion, though the weakened condition in blood forces makes the tension on nerves very bad at times, see, pure or shear will force carrying the body over these conditions. Sympathetically, or through the sympathetic system we find this very strong.
4. In the functioning of the organs themselves we find these conditions: The brain forces very good - development of will force has been a great factor for the body. The poor

capillary and lymphatic circulation create in the throat, the tongue and the organs here, the dryness as appears at times to the body. The lung forces are very good, though the depleted condition gives the plethora action of the lung itself proper. The heart action we find stimulated above the normal, though at times to create sufficient heat and vitality for the body and its used energy [is above the normal though at] times sinks below a normal in its action, though not of organic nature. The stomach itself we find contracted below the normal size, though not in correct position, for this has been misplaced the accident some time ago in the body, though this is not the cause of the condition from that that has been produced, but this was the assistance in the beginning of the trouble. The pancrean we find dormant in the proper secretions, while the excretory [and emunctory action of] the liver, fairly normal but should be stimulated to give the proper incentive to blood supply. A cold hepatic circulation and with the over-amount of secretions thrown out as created in the elimination of the system with the high condition of circulation internally and low without, the kidneys are overcharged and the kidney itself shows this overactivity in attempting to eliminate this as created, see. Through the intestinal tract we have poor assimilation in the intestinal digestion, hence the body does and has at times, from the condition produced in the lower end of the intestinal tract or about the end of the descending colon, before folds coming here at times.
5. Now to give the vibration to this body to bring the normal forces, we would give that, that will affect the organs in their functioning without creating an excess, either an excretory or secretive forces, but that, that will add these in giving the forces to the system and create the desire in the body for food values that will give the necessity fuels for the system, take this, see:
6. To one gallon of rain water add:
Yellow Dock Root..................2 ounces, Burdock Root......................2 ounces, Black Snake Root..................2 ounces, Yellow Root.......................2 ounces, Mandrake Root....................15 grains, Buchu Leaves.....................20 grains, Elder Flower......................2 ounces.
Reduce this by simmering, not boiling, to one quart, strain, while warm add:
4456-1 Page 3
Pure Grain Alcohol................6 ounces, with Balsam of Tolu cut in it..........2 drams.
The dose would be tablespoonful before each meal, see. Let the diet be vegetable forces, any tuberous character and balanced with those that grow above the ground, not all of either kind at the meal. Let one meal be of whole wheat or gruel, see, plenty of fruits, especially, those carrying iron and nitrates - not meats. Let the body keep well exercised in the open to bring perspiration or to open the capillaries, but not where colds or drafts will blow on it or else congestion will set in too quickly. By the time the second quantity is taken of this and the diet is well balanced, we will find the body will overcome this condition. Be necessary until the body is well on the medicinal properties to keep the stimulation in the system but leave that off as the other assumes the vibrations of the body, see. Little of stimulus except that, that will create the correct forces through the hepatics or to give and keep the intestinal tract in good order, in eliminating the feces in the system, see, yet not exciting secretions to either the upper or lower intestinal tract, else we will create toxins that would be bad. Do that, [4456], present in this room.
7. (Q) Should this body change from its present occupation? and be in the open air more? (A) Only as we have given. Take some exercise in the body, see, to give the full respiratory system its chances to function. The inside does not work to a hindrance, see.
8. (Q) Mr. Cayce, how long will it take these medicinal properties, and the exercise and the diet for this body to perfect a permanent cure? (A) It will create the conditions to keep and make a permanent cure, and it is with the body to keep it that way for a permanent cure. In the intestinal tract or forces in the body to make the assimilation necessary to create the vital energy or carbons or fuels necessary in the body and prevent the body from living too often from its stored energy for with the strong mental force once broken up would be very destructive.
9. (Q) What kind of an accident happened? to this body? (A) It is either mashed or rolled or fallen here, you see, across the diaphragm and across the abdomen. That is, in times back. Seems as if mashed and fallen. Do as we have given, and we will correct these conditions.
