TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2541]; this we have had before.
3. Many changes of many natures have taken place in the body since last we had same here.
4. As we find in the present, there is a lacking of vitamins in the supply to the glandular forces of the body.
5. Thus in the lymph, or the mucous membranes of the throat and nasal passages, we find the body becoming susceptible or allergic to certain characters of odors, pollens or dust; by the lack of the ability of the lymph to supply sufficient of the vital forces for proper coagulation where and when irritation occurs.
6. There is thus a lack of that vital force or energy of a character in the leukocyte of the lymph circulation.
7. We find that this might be stimulated or acted upon by a low reverse form of electrical vibration for the body, or that which is of the deep nature - or diathermy - that heats the central portion of the nerve force in the low charge of electrical forces.
8. The tepid baths and massages along with this would be most helpful in assisting to stimulate the proper activity of the body.
9. These we would have through the hydrotherapy methods such as Reilly's.
10. The electrical treatments would be given about twice to three times a month, while the massage and the hydrotherapy should be given at least once each month.
11. Also we would begin to supply extra quantities of the vital energies necessary; which as we find may be supplied either directly by taking the Vitamins B-1 especially, or by increasing the quantities of foods that carry extra quantities of these vitamins for the body.
12. If the vitamins are taken by injection or by mouth, take these each day, of course supplying sufficient quantity to increase the amount to that needed. This vitamin is not stored, and thus it is the energy-producing vitamin in the influences of the body.
13. These as we find will bring the bettered conditions for this body.
14. Ready for questions.
15. (Q) Should there be a change in diet?
    (A) Include in the diet, as indicated, more of those foods - that contain the vitamins and iron necessary for the body. These are found in greater quantities in both fruits and vegetables that are yellow in color.
16. (Q) What may be done to relieve the coughing?
    (A) The massage and hydrotherapy should relieve this, because it will relieve the tension in the dorsal and cervical areas.
17. (Q) Have I an allergy?
    (A) As indicated.
18. We are through with this reading.

   "I wanted to wait until I could give you a full report before answering your letter.
   "In the meantime an allergist has put me through the tests and we have found out that dust, mold, tobacco are the ones most active for which I am going to get vaccines; also the yellow fruits and vegetables you recommend have shown that I am allergic to orange and squash and carrots. I am feeling so much better since I am avoiding the things harmful.
