(Q) What foods has the body taken and what stimulants to
so tax the liver and kidneys?
(A) In this particular instance, we see this was a
combination of salads and oils that acted with the stimulant
as taken in caffeine in the system, with the conditions in
the mental forces already overtaxed, and the debilitation
in blood supply, brought the taxing to the system. The
conditions to be overcome are of the specifics as given.
The conditions in a general manner are conditions to be
met rather than of the specific one as given. Hence the
injunctions as have been given as to how the system must
be kept in the manner, in the way, in which the body may
better assimilate, better given the incentives for
functioning throughout.
As to what and which food stimulants the body should take,
the body through its mental forces should and will be able
to control better than any other indication. Then, never
force foods of any kind which the body feels should or
would be of hindrance to the body. Never rejecting in food
or stimulants the body desires for the upbuilding of the
physical forces of the body. Knowing this, that the mental
forces of the body are capable, able, willing, to give the
correct answer to that which may be set before the body,
and to desire same when the body keeps the mental in that
frame wherein there is not a combative element against the
powers that be.
DO THAT. WE ARE THROUGH.

BACKGROUND
See
137-15 on
5/22/25.
5/22/25 Brother [
900] submitted questions for another rdg.
5/23/25 Brother [
900]'s letter: "Thank you for responding
so promptly to wire regarding [
137]. We surely were excited
and one doctor certainly made a fool of himself. The worst
of it is that he may cause us a lot of trouble. A specialist
lanced [
137]'s throat and he now feels much better."
REPORTS
5/25/25 "Well, after much anxiety and suffering I am again
'toddling' around the house nearly as good as new, merely
waiting for fair weather to go out. My real trouble was a
good old fashioned case of 'quinsy' which you probably know
is an abscess in the throat. However, one doctor gave us a
diphtheria scare and that upset the applecart. I used your
inhalation remedy but judging from the second rdg. I didn't
use it properly. I want to thank you greatly for your help
and when I have just a few more minutes I am going to write
you all in detail." [He requested rdg. for wife, [
140],
mother, [
106], to see if any or all of them should be
vaccinated for smallpox before going to La. for [
900]'s
wedding. See under
900-76 on
5/27/25.]
5/25/25 Brother [
900]'s letter: "Just a line to tell you
that [
137] is much better. A specialist lanced his throat
and with the emptying of the pus he gained relief. The
terrible error was made by Eugene R. Kraus, the osteopath,
which certainly proves that osteopaths should stick to
osteopathy and not butt into bacteriology, for Kraus's
diagnosis was wrong and he had no business making any.
He was called in to administer a treatment, nothing more.
Anyway, the flurry is over and [
137] is better - will
return to business Tuesday if no setback occurs."
9/03/25 He obtained his next Ck. Physical - See
137-19.
