Edgar Cayce Readings, 694-4

(Physical Suggestion)

TEXT

EC: Yes - we have had the body here before.
As we find, there is still a lack of the vital forces necessary in the circulation to prevent weaknesses as well as - owing to poisons - leakages into the blood supply of poisons as from the teeth; as combined WITH the poor eliminations; which cause a neuritic condition as well as headaches, upset digestive force and a general NERVOUS reaction.
Then, we would have local attention to the teeth and gums. All of those teeth should be removed that show infectious forces in or about their area, or gums.
There should be then the cleansing of the system by the use, as we find for this body, of the vegetable compound called INNER CLEAN.
Also we would have a few ADJUSTMENTS, chiropractically or osteopathically, to INSURE the eliminations being set up properly.
In the diet, too often the inclinations have been for not sufficient of the body-building forces. Hence as we find; broiled liver, pigs' feet, all those foods carrying quantities of gluten - as okra, as well as those natures as from any of the forms of gelatins or the combinations of same - should be a portion of the diet.
Not that we would alter the diet a great deal, except that we would combine these as indicated as a part of the diet.
Ready for questions.
(Q) Do I need a tonic containing iron? If so, please prescribe.
(A) As we find, the glutens as with the foods indicated should be sufficient. In the present there are too many poisons in the system for a tonic to be assimilated properly. However, after the flushing of the system, a tonic such as Beef, Iron and Wine in combination (such as Wyeth's) would be most beneficial.
Do these and as we find we will bring the better conditions for this body.
We are through with this Reading.

BACKGROUND

See 694-3 on 3/27/37 in re menopause.
4/02/38 "I have been feeling so wretched the past few months that I think probably the trouble lies in my teeth, as I have had my gold bridges and crowns for about 14 yrs., and they say after that length of time they begin to give trouble... Are my teeth the cause of my extreme fatigue and rheumatic pains throughout my body which I have most of the time? Do I need a tonic containing iron?"

REPORTS

4/13/38 "I want to thank you for your kindness in letting me have my reading so quickly. Would it be asking too much if you could refer to my rdg., the part where it says about having pigs' feet in my diet. You know, that is pork, and I do not think that is good for me. Will you please interpret it for me, if you can?"
4/16/38 EC's ltr.: "Ah, you are right, 'Pigs' Feet' does sound like pork, but they have often been given (in the rdgs.), even when there is the suggestion that no other hog meat is to be taken. Of course, if you have an aversion to them don't try them, but it seems there is a gluten in the fresh (of course, never the pickled variety) that is most beneficial in the blood stream - makes resistance of a nature that seemingly is not found in anything else in such large quantities. But if you never ate them, may be worse than a dose of bad medicine. Personally, I like them and do not eat any other pork (except occasionally a little crisp breakfast bacon). If you try them, once a week is sufficient. Do hope you will soon be feeling a lot better. Let us hear from you, please."
7/10/39 "I have been so ill for the past year that I don't see how I pulled through, but right now, thank the good Lord, I am getting better and am feeling almost like I did ten years ago. It was a long, hard fight, but I am coming out in good shape."
8/10/43 "I read THERE IS A RIVER and, Mr. Cayce, I think it is one of the best books written."
