TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [378]. Now, we find there are rather those conditions of which the body should be warned. These, as we find, have to do with the character of eliminations as are related to the equilibrium in the system, that the metabolism may be kept nearer to the normal, that there may be the proper coordination in eliminations, and thus KEEP the body near physically fit.
2. These, then, are the conditions as we find them, and those conditions of which the body should take cognizance, that disturbances do not arise in this direction. These, then, are the conditions as we find them, [378] we are speaking of, present in this room:
3. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this very good in many respects. There are times, however, when there is seen there is the appearance of pressure, or the inclination when the body - in certain movements, or in arising suddenly - finds there is the tendency of unbalance, or dizziness. This, as we find, is rather a warning than a disorder as exists at present; for there be specific conditions arising that brings about SUCH reactions, and they have to do with the eliminations FROM the blood stream - for not only does the blood stream carry the replenishing and rebuilding forces TO the various portions of the organism of the physical body, but also through the same channel are the greater portions of ELIMINATIONS carried on IN and THROUGH the various CHANNELS FROM which eliminations take place, or the drosses being removed from system; for when there is an activity of an organ, of a gland, of any PORTION of the system, the use or the activity itself produces that which must be ELIMINATED FROM the system. Does the organs of elimination COORDINATE in EVERY MANNER, little are the distresses that would come to a body - unless from accident from an EXTERIOR force.
4. In this particular body, [378], the condition arises from that as existent in the circulation as related to the hepatics, and especially as TO that as to the kidney. Hence the condition of dizziness as comes from the inactivity or incoordination between that of the upper and lower hepatic circulation. Hence the GLANDS about the kidneys are those PUT OUT of balance, so that the IMPULSE as arises from same is as of the throbbing or pulsation feeling to the base of brain, coming directly with the GLANDS of same; also the change in the system as related to those of the genitory system brings such reaction that these conditions AT TIMES - not often - but if the proper investigation, or proper check on the AMOUNT of the kidneys is seen - it will be found to vary; NOT by what is eaten, or even the water drunk, BUT by the SYSTEM'S absorbing PROPERLY at times, and at others tending to alleviate through those conditions.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, the body is very good.
6. In the sympathetic system, these are active.
7. In the organs of the body, these are very good throughout.
8. The brain forces balance and coordinate throughout their activity, both as to IMPULSE and to active forces FROM impulse.
9. Sensory system shows the effect of usage, and inability of system to at all times replenish through the proper resuscitation of energies to the organs OF sensory system.
10. Throat, bronchials, lungs, larynx, these are very good in their reactions throughout.
11. Heart's action SUBNORMAL at times, but only WHEN there IS those reactions to the stabilizing or metabolism and katabolism of the system becoming disturbed through the conditions as are seen in the hepatic circulation.
12. Digestive system very good, for the body has been a good dietician, or dietetic, for self - and in its application of foods and food values for the system, and much may be accomplished THROUGH these usages of that upon which the body builds; for that upon which a body feeds it MUST eventually receive ITS IMPULSE!
13. In the hepatic circulation, liver, pancreas and spleen - only show distress when there is an unbalancing of the conditions as related to the LOWER hepatic circulation; this coming from a STRAIN as was received once in the LUMBAR and lower dorsal region. These be the IMPULSE, and with the proper corrections, proper PRECAUTIONS, this should be removed entirely from the system. Also this will, UNLESS corrected, affect the FEET and THEIR proper RELATIONSHIPS - for they tend to produce BEARING down effect upon the lower circulation, and the IMPROPER amount of blood supply flowing through same. Then, in the lower PORTION of the hepatic circulation, and especially as related to the capsule above the kidney - which keeps the equilibrium in the system, adding to or taking from that as is created in the blood supply through the glucose and urea - that is so necessary in the proper coagulations - these becoming unbalanced at times, the glucose being short, the urea being of an abundant quantity, produces too much of the FLUIDS in the system and, as it were, the FEELING as of rocking the boat.
14. In meeting the needs, then - keep those of the diets as is KNOWN, or WELL known to the body, in keeping the proper equilibrium.
15. We WOULD, though, correct those conditions existent in lumbar and sacral, and ESPECIALLY in the LAST dorsal and first LUMBAR region. This, we would find, would be better by the application of ADJUSTMENTS - given OSTEOPATHICALLY - but APPLY WITH same those vibrations which are well for all, through that of the Radio-Active Appliance. This will give stability and the strength to the system, to bring the proper coordination and proper RESUSCITATION; for even those of the sensory system - in eyes, keenness of taste, keenness of hearing - will respond to these, with the present conditions. Ready for questions.
16. (Q) Does the body smoke too much?
    (A) Not TOO much. This has the tendency, of course, to reduce the efficiency of the activities of the salivary glands, or the saliva - and this brings about that tendency of DRYNESS, and the necessity of changing diet for the activities of the alimentary canal.
17. That is all the questions.
18. We are through for the present.
