1. EC: Yes, we have the body here - [5651]. Now, we find there are abnormal conditions with this body. These are of various characters as toward the functioning of the physical organism. Some conditions we find may be easily arrested. Others we find that may be assisted where the body may function the nearer normal.
2. These, now, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [5651] we are speaking of. First:
3. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, here we find evidences of conditions as have caused the disturbance in the system, that has brought about - by the inactivity of portions of same in its function - that that has produced and is producing the greater distress in the body. Lack of portions in the blood supply itself to meet the needs of conditions through one of the eliminating systems specific, and general in its action.
4. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, here we find conditions at present allayed, in a manner, through the action of properties to prevent the reactions in certain directions of the body, and this may be easily changed. These acting, then, as sedatives.
5. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS OF THE SYSTEM, brain forces good.
6. Functioning of the organs in the sensory system show the effect of conditions as have existed through the nerve system and of organs specific in their functioning.
7. Throat, bronchials, lungs, larynx, show the effect of conditions in the system as reflecting the condition of blood stream.
8. Digestion, how that active principles in the system have brought about localization of conditions in the body. In the functioning of digestive system, and that as is brought about in the eliminations as produce that condition existent in the organs of elimination, in hepatic - or lower hepatic circulation, or the liver, the kidneys, and the bladder, as
5651-1 Page 2
a localized condition. In the eliminating system, where these conditions were constantly thrown on the lower action of the hepatics, the kidneys becoming overactive - and irritation setting up, produced that of localization of conditions in and about this portion of system. As is seen in the blood supply, reflected in the nerve system, and effective in the functioning of the organs and the hepatics, lymphatics, and especially localized in and about this portion of the body. This, as seen, has not assumed the proportions of malignant nature, as YET. Irritation will bring about such conditions, if allowed to remain as such in the system. The growth is from the effect of impurities, over elimination through the channels, and localization of conditions attempting to ward off effects of same in the system. Operation would not be effective; rather causing more of the chances of infection and spreading of condition in the body. Rather that of rest and of that that will cause the eliminations to be brought about in such a way and manner as to give as little through the activities of the kidneys, so that the system may have the opportunity of producing resuscitation through the activity of the hepatics, as act through the alimentary - rather than through that of the kidney or bladder in ITS activity. This may be without over-activity, over-irritation, over-acidity being produced in system, brought to where the body may be relieved GREATLY - and WITHOUT undue conditions arising, be relieved possibly permanently! will the condition be ever kept in mind.
9. These we would add, then: Both medicinal properties and those of exterior forces for same, as would be found in producing in the lymphatics, in the liver, that activity to take off of the kidneys as much of the excess as is possible. There has been and is the tendency of acidity, or uric acid reaction in system. This bad! This must be combated, would the condition be kept from ulcerating. This over condition brought about this specific condition at present. These, then, we would apply:
10. Those properties as will be found in Licorice Compound, Cascara Sagrada, and Ambrosia weed (powdered), as an active principle for the liver. Those as would clarify the system and as would be active as medicinal properties. For the effect on kidneys and bladder, small doses of Juniper - that is, rectified, and apply those of the Ultra-Violet ray in small quantities, or short duration treatments. Not more than one minute, at least thirty-six inches from the lower portion of the dorsal and lumbar regions. These should be applied at least every day. When the condition has been
5651-1 Page 3
allayed, the action of manipulation would effectually assist in distributing eliminations for the body. Ready for questions.
11. Dosage of properties must be governed according to the physical activities of the body, and of the response to the condition of the body as the changes gradually take place.
12. Do not operate for the condition, for these would be to give the system that incentive of spreading, rather than destroying the condition.
13. (Q) How often should the Juniper be given? (A) As has been suggested, these should be governed according to the activities and the response of the system. These should be done under the supervision of a physician examining and caring for the body, and as these respond - one time it will possibly take very good dose, as dosage would be, but smaller quantities of the Juniper - or of the activity of Juniper and Nitre in the varied effects as are brought about may assist, or would assist, in clarifying the condition. The NECESSITY is to take the strain OFF of the kidneys, remembering there is the tendency of a uric acid reaction in system. These should be cared for. It is possible that over-activity of the body physically may cause irritation that would cause ulceration, through the growth as produced by the system attempting to adjust itself, that would set up malignant nature - or such conditions as to cause the system to absorb more poison than could be eliminated. Then we would have a long drawn out condition! The light is to ally the condition and assist the system to absorb and eliminate through ALIMENTARY canal those of conditions existent, see? in poisons being thrown in system.
14. (Q) Any specific diet? (A) Only that that would be easily assimilated - a blood BUILDER, and non-acid - for a uric acid condition, as is seen, or tendency towards same. We are through for the present.
