Now, as we find, there are rather the complications of
conditions that disturb the better physical functioning of
the body. While the body is in the developing stage, or in
its changes in the physical reactions, and there is and has
been the necessity of the vitamins and vital forces in the
body to be rather predominant, that have had to do with the
structural building forces in the body, there has been the
lack of these elements. And the excess drawing upon organs
to supply in the system has made for the tendency towards an
anemia, or not a normal, healthy development in the matter of
building resistances in the system. These have been through
the lack of the coordinating of those forces especially in
the glands of the adrenals, and hence has in times back
produced in the system a derangement with the functioning of
the kidneys and the hepatic circulation. In the present
conditions, as we find, these are combined then with this
condition. For, with the resistance low in the system, and
with the circulation slowed up, it has made for the tendency
in the lymph circulation to produce the activity in the
throat, in the head, and especially in the tonsil and the
adenoid area such congestion as to make - with cold and
inflammation - enlargements of these conditions. But we find
the basis, or those conditions first disturbing, coming from
rather a deeper condition in the system - as has been
indicated.
With the affecting of the adrenal and the activity of the
hepatic circulation, the circulation, through the hepatics
has been slowed up; and with the body's attempting to make an
increase in the circulation to keep the balance from cold and
congestion, has made for this engorgement in the portions of
the system indicated.
Hence, in meeting the needs of the conditions in the body, we
will find it will be necessary to take all of these
conditions into consideration, so that the applications that
may be made may reduce not only those conditions that have
caused and do cause distress in the lymph circulation, in
throat, in head, and in the clogging conditions in the
antrums, but necessary also that there be supplied elements
within the body that may make for the ability of the blood
supply to become balanced in the system to such ways and
manners as to increase the quantity and quality to the
circulation. And if there is the ability through such
applications to set up drainages in the system, these will be
very much better than resorting to operative measures to
reduce these proturberances or enlargements of glands and
those portions where the disorder exists.
We would begin first, as these:
While there have been applications that have maintained, as
it were, the lesser degree of temperature, with the low
pulsation, with the tendency for inflammation in affected
areas, there will be periods when there will be influences
of fever, and there will be pains in head, throat, and
enlargements of the glands about the thyroids and in the area
of the soft tissue, even in the face; but by the correction
and by the stimulation of the circulation through
manipulative measures, the drainages may be set up here to
such an extent as to drain into the system the poisons and
excesses that may be eliminated from the system, if the
eliminations are kept in an alkalin way and manner - and thus
eradicated from the system without producing to other
portions that have already been weakened by strain in the
system; and especially those subluxations in the 10th and
11th dorsal area, where these have first caused those
pressures in the system, and bring about a normal healthy
condition for the body.
We would first prepare then, after there has been the
manipulations given each day for the first five or six days,
to keep these drainages, take internally small quantities of
Sweet Spirits of Nitre with the active forces from leek, or
those that make for the active principles in the body that
are effective to the circulations through the respiratory
system and are active with the glands of the digestive
system, and particularly - with the Nitre in same - to the
kidneys, that we may drain off much of this excess of
accumulations as drosses that have made for the hindering of
the circulations through these portions of the body. We
would take three to five drops at a dose, four or five times
each day; or five to six drops an hour and a half to two
hours apart. See?
Be mindful that the diet is kept more toward the building of
blood and nerve energies for the system, as is well known
by those in charge of the body-activities of the body.
And we will bring for the body a normal development, a normal
reaction. And, as we find, it would not be necessary for
operative measures unless inflammation and temperature arise;
and then only in the adenoid - but do not do this if it can
be DRAINED from the system.
(Q) What is the proportion of the Nitre and the leek?
(A) The juices of leek or onions, that are pressed from
same, see, when it's heated - just a bit - teaspoonful with
three to four to five drops of the Sweet Spirits of Nitre.
(Q) What causes the lack of appetite, and what should be
done to stimulate appetite?
(A) Stimulating the whole of the cerebro-spinal system,
relieving the pressure so that there is the normal activity
from the system, see? and when there is not, then there
should be used the enemas or the stimulating of the liver to
such activity in a general treatment to make for activities
in same. Relieving the pressures here will make the normal
appetite return.
(Q) Is the body being fed correctly now?
(A) In the present and under the present emergencies, will
be better that more of the citrus fruit juices and soups or
juices of vegetables be used, for the next five or six days.
No heavy food of any kind.
(Q) Is body showing results from Haliver malt with
viosterol?
(A) Showing results, showing effects rather in the system of
same.
(Q) Is this of benefit to the body?
(A) Not a benefit to the body under the existing conditions.
(Q) How often should the manipulations be given?
(A) Just as given, each day for the first five or six days -
until these drainages are thoroughly set up.
(Q) Are the teeth in good condition?
(A) With a poor circulation, as has existed, these have
suffered from stimulation as much as have many of the organs
and many of the portions of the system - even as the
structural portion in the regular development of the body.
But with these applications, and with these adjustments as we
have indicated, as we find, these will bring the better
normal reaction.
If the teeth and gums do not respond, from the very nature of
that stimuli necessary for their activity - segregated in
quite a manner from the rest of the system - they may need
local attention, but first make the proper corrections and
adjustments.
(Q) What shall be done for stubbornness?
(A) The stubbornness is not so much in self as it is caused
by the feelings in the body as resentments to the general
conditions. A more healthy body will make a more healthy
outlook. And do not say DON'T! Give the body things to do,
instead of saying Don't do!
(Q) What treatment and shampoo would you advise for his hair
and scalp?
(A) With a general condition improved, and the circulation
improved, pure water, pure soap, would be the better shampoo
and the better application for a normal, healthy, growing
body.
(Q) When the body has been returned to a normal state -
(A) (Interrupting) We are looking very far ahead! Develop
the conditions that are necessary. Take the steps that are
necessary today, then what is necessary for the better
development of the body physically or mentally may be added
as conditions arise.
(Q) What caused the trouble last summer with the kidneys?
(A) We are going back too far. We have given this; those
repressions indicated in the portion where this began the
creating of the influences that produced the anemia in the
system - or the requiring of more of the leucocyte than the
body with its elements at the time was able to supply from
the red blood stream. Leaving in the system much in the same
way and manner as prevented normal development with the body.
See?
(Q) Any other suggestion for the body?
(A) Do these for the present, and we will find we will bring
the normal forces for this body.
We are through for the present.
