1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [5465]. Now, we find there are disturbing forces in the physical functioning of the body. These, as we find, come much from over medication in the unbalanced condition existent in the functioning of organs in the system, until there is produced the acidity in a nature as destroys gastric forces in the digestive system, producing those of lacerations in same and a condition bordering on that of what might be termed a raw, but not ulcerated - an inflammatory, but not even LACERATED except in places, in the digestive organ itself. The result of same is from medication, as well as SPECIFIC conditions existent in impulse areas in the cerebrospinal system, from which digestive system and the appendage of same receive their impulse. So we have a specific condition and an acute condition arising from those added externally, as aids - rather than bringing about coordination. In the effects, also we find improper eliminations through the alimentary canal, hyperacidity in the blood supply, and unbalanced condition in the lower hepatic circulation, or kidneys and bladder are inflamed from same. Nausea, unsteadiness on feet, headaches - especially through the eyes and temples - and the tendency of an acid that makes for destruction of the beginning of digestive forces, or even the salivary glands themselves - as throat and mouth - show irritation. The walls of the oesophagus itself burn, as does the throat, bronchi, and entrance to the lungs. These are reflex forces, rather than of other conditions.
2. In meeting, then, the needs of same - we would find, that will the WHOLE of the conditions be given consideration - as WELL as the specific forces as existent, we will bring about a NORMAL force much sooner, and not leave dregs in system to be combated with later on, but ELIMINATE conditions entirely, so that all offices of the functioning system will be cooperative in their functioning, and a near normal - or a NORMAL condition result from same.
3. Beginning, we would CLARIFY the digestive system. We
5465-1 Page 2
would use equal quantities of limewater and cinnamon water in that of half and half carbonated water; that is, half plain and half carbonated water. Teaspoonful of each, or two teaspoonsful - half to three-quarter teaspoonful of limewater, cinnamon water - of each. This is to CLARIFY the system, see? the gastric juices of same.
4. Then we would take small quantities often, alternated between Milk of Magnesia and Milk of Bismuth - these be taken every two hours until system has cleansed itself through these changes, see?
5. Then we would begin immediately and correct those subluxations or pressures, in forms of lesions, as exist in the cerebrospinal system, in the 6th and 5th dorsal area, in the 4th and 2nd lumbar area; also coordinating those conditions in the whole of the cervical area by the GENTLE or the full treatment of same, making corrections AS the body is relaxed in the lumbar and dorsal area.
6. We would also add during rest periods - one each day - those vibrations of the wet PLAIN appliance, of a low electrical vibration, to create a STABILIZED condition in the nerve energies of the body.
7. The body having been under a strain nervously, DRAINED as to the blood's supply in its normalcy - becoming overacid in its reaction - the medications only hastened the condition in the whole of the system, as given.
8. Do that. These vibrations we would give for one hour each day. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) What should be the dosage of the Bismuth and Magnesia? (A) Teaspoonful in little water every two hours. ALTERNATE, see?
10. (Q) What foods should be eaten? (A) Those that are alkalin in their reaction. There may be given, after a little, stimuli of beaten egg (only the yolk) with very LITTLE sugar, and the egg cooked by the spirits frumenti, and MILK added - as a drink. It also will be found that arrowroot, junket, and such, are helpful. Do not give too much food, or too much stimuli at one time; that is, for several days at least, see? but will these conditions be followed, NORMALCY may be brought to body. Will these be attempted, or only in PART followed, drugs or dregs in system MUST be the result, for THIS will bring COORDINATIVE measures through the whole of the system, [5465].
11. (Q) Should enemas be taken, and how often? (A) These should be taken to cleanse the system from that as is carried into the colon from the stomach and intestines. These should be more in the order, or ON the
5465-1 Page 3
order of antiseptic enemas. Be sure they carry the small quantities of those properties as will make for a HEALTHY reaction in the colon.
12. (Q) What is wrong with the ear and how can trouble be corrected? (A) Will we correct those conditions in the cerebrospinal system, we will find that these conditions will disappear. This is more from NERVOUSNESS and pressure on areas as receive impulses through sensory system, and are reflex principally.
13. (Q) How often should the limewater be given? (A) Should the limewater, cinnamon water, and half carbonated water, see? in which the lime water and cinnamon water is placed. This may be given when necessary to prevent nausea, and burning in stomach. Two hours, three hours, or when necessary. May be given for two or three doses today, and possibly will not be necessary until day or two, or three or four days later, see? This is to prevent regurgitation, and to settle the stomach.
