1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [4631]. This, with the SURROUNDINGS, we have had before.
2. In the physical forces of the body we find there are those conditions that are SERIOUSLY disturbing the body. These, as we find, come from TWO direct causes: the POSITION of the stomach itself PRODUCES fermentation and gas in the intestinal tract; also this has, of its very nature, produced that tendency of coagulation of the gastric forces in the gall ducts and bladder themselves. Not as hardened stones (save very little), but that that produces for acute pains, nausea, and a TENDENCY for constipation, and the opposite at times when those forces are taken to act upon the gastric forces of the digestive system. This produces a BURNING sensation in the stomach, even to the cardiac end and up the esophagus; this forming then a pressure even in the heart's region, producing a fastness of pulse, cold, clammy sensations coming over the system from these; tendency as to feel that all the organs of the pelvis and the stomach are going low; in fact, they ARE too low - makes a dipping in the stomach itself proper!
3. To meet the needs in the present time, there should be the rest, at least off of the feet, and BETTER that the body be PRONE - with the feet higher than the head! and apply those of the heavy castor oil packs OVER the LIVER area. Best that these be with SATURATED cloths, two or three thicknesses of flannel, sufficiently large to cover the whole liver area; then make packs of heavy salt - heat these (as heat the oil, as much as the body may stand) - and keep these over this for two to three hours at a time, twice a day - see? TAKING internally small quantities OFTEN of olive oil, all the body may assimilate - take it every hour, half a teaspoonful.
4. We would also use a high enema once or twice a week, for the week that the body would remain off of feet - see? and IN same put as this proportions: To a gallon and a half of water add IODIZED salt a heaping teaspoonful, plain baking

soda a level tablespoonful. Stir this well in the water before given as a high enema, see?
5. We would also use those vibrations of an electrical driven vibrator, to massage over the shoulders, the neck, base of the brain, and ACROSS the region at the 9th and 10th dorsal - see? This would be given at eventide, before the body is ready to rest.
6. The diet during the period would be:
7. Mornings - citrus fruit juices. Alternate these. Don't let them always be oranges, or all grapefruit, or all lemons - but alternate them!
8. Noons - stewed fruits; as prunes, as peaches, as apricots, as any of those that are laxative in their nature - see? figs, and the like - but NOT with too much sugar! A little milk or cream, or buttermilk, or Bulgarian milk, may be taken at the same meal - see?
9. Evenings - very crisp bacon (no grease in it!), with a little stimuli as of (not too strong) coffee, or a little bit of tea, with toast or egg - see?
10. We will find you will get rid of these conditions!
11. Be well when the body is on the feet again, that a support for the stomach itself be worn, until this has ADJUSTED itself - that is, for five to six weeks. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) What should be done for the acid condition? (A) You do this and you'll get rid of the acid condition! Follow the diet closely; also follow those packs TWICE a day - see? and take the olive oil regularly - of course, don't wake up to take it - you won't, if you give the vibrations over the shoulders and across the diaphragm region. Do that. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " File
