TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [255]. While the conditions are still on the improve, that have caused the disturbance in the physical forces of the body - as of the acute conditions - yet we still feels some uneasiness in these directions, and the body feel easily tired out at times, and a tendency for headaches in the evening, and dull feelings in the morning. These, as we find, will GRADUALLY lose their effectiveness, and the body come back to normal, with the proper precautions as to the exercise and as to the rest, following out the lines of the diets and those things necessary for creating a balance, as the body has and knows how to do. Ready for questions.
2. (Q) How often should oil packs be given?
   (A) At least three times a week, UNTIL there is a NORMAL activity from the alimentary canal - see?
3. (Q) Should gall duct or bladder be especially treated? If so, how?
   (A) This may be osteopathically EMPTIED, and with BEST results. Do not do so when there is too much irritation in the region - see? This can BEST be determined by one that would administer, or who would EMPTY same - see?
4. (Q) How much olive oil should be taken internally?
   (A) Not more than half, or quarter, to teaspoonful.
5. (Q) How often?
   (A) That depends upon the necessity of the eliminations. DO NOT create such a condition, by taking so much - either of the oil packs or of the olive oil - as for the body to become dependent upon, or the body become so strained by the constant purging of the upper portion of the alimentary canal, or of the hepatic circulation, but keep DOWN the inflammation. NOTHING is much better than the olive oil as a food for the intestinal system. This may be left off occasionally, however, for a week or ten days, and then resumed again. In the interim, or in that time, two to three doses (that is, of the whole period, for a week - every day or two take a full tablespoonful) of the Agar and the oil, as is found in those that are palatable to the body - see? [Petrolagar? Agarol? Etc.?]
6. (Q) Itemize diet that is best for the body, and that will prevent a recurrence of the inflammation.
   (A) The inflammation must be entirely removed from the system, and the CAUSES of same - as in the gall duct or gall bladder region - before we may say there may NOT be a recurrence, under ANY diet; for these may come from influences in the astrological, or that from the combined with something that would disagree with the body, from its position or condition, and of the condition as of the atmospheric, or of the mental surroundings - but these, as have been outlined, of the fruit or fruit juices - those may be altered from the fruit juices to those of the cereals with the fruits, but do not have the cereals and the citrus fruit juices combined. Those cereals AND fruits that are raw that may be combined. These may be altered from time to time. Of noons, we would have a very nourishing broth - with the toast, or with the browned bread, as of the Zwieback, or of those of the nature that carry both the stimuli to the DIGESTIVE system and to the assimilating system, as well as to the blood supply, so that we keep an equal balance. In evenings, there may be provided a heavier meal, but beware of too much pastries, or of those that would act with the gastro-elements OF the digestive, forces, as to produce that tendency towards the FORMATION of gases - see?
7. That is all the questions regarding this body.
8. We are through with this reading.
