1. GC: You will have before you the body of [5520], at ... St., ..., Georgia, and you will tell us if there is any special treatment that should be given this body at this time, other than that being done, and you will answer the questions, as I ask them, regarding this body.
2. EC: We have the body here. This we have had before. [4280-7 for mother in pregnant state, 7/15/26.]
3. Those conditions that are being accorded for the system are very good, and we do not see that many changes COULD be made or SHOULD be made for the better conditions of the body.
4. While there are troublesome conditions arising from the various effects as have been produced in the physical functioning of the body, the modification of properties given should be made to meet the conditions necessary as they arise. Ready for questions.
5. (Q) What brand of sugar should be given this body? Mellins Food, Dextro Maltose #3, cane or beet sugar, or malt soup stock? (A) The better condition is to keep with the goats' milk and the gradual adding of the Mellin's Food - in its modified forms to meet the conditions as arise from the congestion and from condition with intestinal and digestive system.
6. (Q) How much sugar in his 24 hour supply? How many tablespoons of sugar does he need in his daily supply? (A) ALL will be obtained that is necessary in the Mellin's Food, when this is added with the goats' milk. Do not give other sugar than that, else we will upset the digestive system and produce the excess of fermentation in the digestive system, and overtax the blood supply, as well as the organs of the body that must ASSIMILATE properties taken in.
7. (Q) Is the goats' milk better for the body raw or cooked? (A) This would be modified to meet the needs of the
5520-1 Page 2
conditions as arise. BETTER for it raw - but meet the conditions as they arise. Goats' milk and the modified Mellin's Food. Not prepared with the goats' MILK necessarily at all times, but with the modifications of the Food with the milk may be well, see?
8. (Q) Would orange juice, prune juice, or carrot juice, be beneficial for him at present? If not, how long before it can be given? (A) Carrot juice and prune juice, or TOMATO juice - tomato juice would be better than either at present, were this given in small quantities. Carrot juice may be given in two to three weeks. The tomato juice may be given at present - PREFERABLY that which has been canned WITHOUT Benzoate of Soda.
9. (Q) Did this body have whooping cough, or was the cough caused from bad milk? (A) Whooping cough, as it is known. Those manipulations and those conditions accorded for the body's eliminations have kept the body well, and the germ - or that producing whooping cough, as yet, has not been ENTIRELY eliminated from the system. The effects of same are greatly diminished in the system. Hence goats' milk and modified Mellin's Food the better for the body. As is seen, the tomato juice carries all of the VITAMINS for body in their regular order, and will not produce undue fermentation if given in moderation, to be sure.
10. (Q) Are his stomach, bowels and kidneys normal? (A) Near normal at present - but DO NOT overtax the stomach, or kidneys, or pancreas, and harden liver, and overtax the rest of system by too much sugar!
11. (Q) How often should the tomato juice be given, and what quantity at a time? (A) Once to twice a day - teaspoonful to three teaspoonsful, as it agrees and as it is assimilated by the system.
12. (Q) What may be done to entirely eliminate this germ of whooping cough? (A) This is eliminated through the creating of extra vitamins in the system and blood supply, by strangulation and elimination. Hence the manipulation even for the body, and the care of the food. Do as given. The body is well, and should bring much joy to many.
13. We are through with this reading for the present.
