Present: Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.

TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [1203].
2. Now, as we find, there are those conditions that are of a specific nature that disturb or prevent the normal physical functioning. There are those general conditions that at times are produced by this specific cause and others become rather as a contributory cause to the disturbances.
3. These then are the conditions as we find them with this body, [1203] we are speaking of:
4. THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this indicates there are hindrances in the circulation, especially to the lower portion of the body; producing then, by this slowing up of the circulation, toxic forces in the lower limbs and more specifically in the left limb, that make for the inability for the perfectly normal use of same - and produces an abnormalcy in the developments or activities of these portions of the body.
5. Through these disturbances we find an unbalanced condition produced in the structural portions of the body, especially through the pelvis and through the 4th lumbar axis. And this makes for a nervous reaction at times, that upsets the assimilating system, that makes for periods when there are those overanxieties through the body and a general disturbance through the whole of the circulatory system.
6. IN THE NERVE FORCES, in the strains that are produced we find an incoordination at times through the association of the sympathetic and cerebrospinal nervous systems, that makes for those expressions that may be termed by others at times to the body having periods of tantrum like reactions or an incoordinant reaction; being wrath about things that should not and at others showing for DISAGREEABLE reactions physically to the body.
7. These also make for pressures in the nervous forces as related to the sensory system, so that the soft tissue of the face, the eyes, the ears at times are subject to the reflex conditions from this unbalanced nervous force.
8. IN THE ORGANS THEMSELVES OF THE BODY, as we find, as has been indicated, there are those impingements in the sacral and especially in the 4th lumbar area. Throughout the sacral there needs to be those corrections and attentions that will make for a relieving of the pressures.
9. These as we find will bring relief and then periods when there will be anxiety again, yet if these are CONSISTENTLY kept for periods sufficient to make the correction, these disturbances to the GREATER extent will be eliminated through those portions where abnormalcies are shown - of most of the natures that have not been of such long standing as to be structural in their reaction.
10. FIRST, THEN, WE WOULD GIVE:
11. The Radio-Active Appliance should be used almost constantly; that is, each day. This would be used for a period of an hour each day, so as to make for much better rest and a much better action, a much better circulation. The attachments would be made to the opposite extremities; left ankle, right wrist; right ankle, left wrist - one hour each day, PREFERABLY in the evening.
12. We would have the corrections osteopathically given in periods of a week and then a rest for a week, then a period of three weeks (these taken about twice a week) and then a rest period of a like amount or time.
13. These as we find will make for a great many definite changes that will be beneficial for the body.
14. Also a tonic will aid in the eliminations, in the activities through the organs of the pelvis, relieving those headaches, relieving and aiding in the better appetite AND assimilation - prepared in this way and manner:
15. To 2 ounces of Distilled Water add 2 ounces of Strained Honey. Let this come to a boil. Skim, and then add - after this has cooled - 2 ounces of Pure GRAIN Alcohol. Then to this as the carrier, add - in the order named:

    Syrup of Sarsaparilla Compound.......1 1/2 ounces,
Syrup of Mullein.........................1 ounce,
Syrup of Rhubarb.......................1/2 ounce,
Tincture of Stillingia.................1/2 ounce,
Elixir or Syrup of Wild Cherry...........1 ounce.

    Shake this solution together. The dose would be a teaspoonful about three or four hours apart. Or, to make it more specific, take one dose before retiring, one dose before the noon meal, and one dose between the noon meal and the evening meal, see?
16. These as we find taken conscientiously, consistently, will aid in eliminating much of those disturbing forces in these directions.
17. We would also be mindful that the diet is not too much of highly seasoned foods. Not too much of those that carry too great a quantity of alcohol. Light wines are very well, PREFERABLY taken in the evening or afternoon - preferably the red wines with black bread, not with sweets.
18. Do this. We will bring the normal forces in those manners as indicated.
19. Ready for questions.
20. We are through for the present.
