EC: This condition as we find with this body - there are
rather those conditions of which the body should be warned,
than of conditions to be corrected at the present. Rather
correcting those conditions that will overcome the tendencies
as are exhibited in the body at the present time. These, as
we see, have to do with the condition as existent in the
lungs proper and that in the feet. These conditions, as we
see, are at present rather in a latent state, on account of
the vitality of the body being able to cope with same, yet we
find, from the physical conditions as are becoming apparent
in other portions of the body, from the effects as are
produced in the system throughout the functioning organism of
the body, that these must be met. This, as we see, produces
this overtaxation (this, as we are speaking of, other than
that apparent from external forces that appear in system,
see?). These, then, to be met:
We would prepare for these conditions and overcome same by
diet and exercise in a nominal manner, and in a consistent
and a persistent way, for the best developments of the body.
That is, taking more exercise in the open, with the upper
portion of the body (from waist up, see?) bathed often, and
deep inhalations taken, circulation of the trunk portion of
body through exercise, mornings, and evenings, see?
Extending arms, circulating arms, expanding the chest.
The food values as would be taken to meet these conditions
would be more nuts, more eggs (these preferably would be
taken raw), more milk, and meats that carry as much of the
fat as will be assimilated by the system. Every character of
meats save hog meat, see?
Inhalations should be taken of this nature: To 6 ounces of
grain alcohol, add:
Eucalyptol...........................30 minims,
Benzosol, or Liquid Creosote....5 to 10 minims,
(5 minims of Creosote or
10 minims of Benzosol)
Canadian Balsam.......................5 minims,
Heroin.............................1/60 grain,
dissolved in 3 minims of water, added to solution.
The inhalations well to be kept in bottle tightly corked.
Put it in a bottle twice the size necessary for the
container. Shake solution well together, then inhale
through the mouth into the lungs. This, as we see, will
overcome the condition of catarrhal forces in lung, in
throat, in bronchials and in nostrils. These should be
inhaled at least once each day, preferably just before the
body retires.
The exercises should be taken morning and evening,
principally for upper portion of body, with the deep
breathing exercise for the body.
Following the diet as has been given. More nuts, more
fruits, more egg, more milk, more meats - fats. No hog meat.
Do this, and we will find we will bring about a better normal
physical development for this body, [
68].
The condition in lower limbs and extremities, we find, are
produced by strain as is produced in the muscular forces in
lower portion of limbs, brought about by a condition existent
in the sacral. This taxes the locomotories and brings about
this contraction to the lower portion of the feet. This will
be assisted by wearing arches, braces, and by wearing rubber
band about the thigh and just above the knee. Changing these
time to time, or they may be affected the same by, when
resting, keeping feet just a little above or level with head.
We are through for the present.
