Edgar Cayce Readings, 3728-2

(Check Physical Suggestion)

TEXT

EC: Yes, we have the body here - this we have had before. Now, MANY conditions are bettered with this body than that as we had before. However, as was given, with the changes as wrought with those conditions administered, we find there are OTHER troubles now apparently arising. These are more from retraction than from disordered conditions, yet the condition must be met, would the better physical forces come for the body. A matter of diet and of that which will, added to the system, create a nominal equilibrium in the assimilating and the distribution through the system. Do not neglect the manipulations, but these may be made farther apart, and there should be used at least a tablespoonful to a tablespoonful and a half of Milk of Magnesia for the acid and the tendency for gas to form in the stomach. Well, too, were the vibrations of as much olive oil as the body can assimilate be taken. This will have much food value for the body. Begin with the small dose, but continue to increase until there is as much as the body may assimilate. Be sure this is pure olive oil, and that not sufficient is taken that the system cannot handle and it (the oil) become rancid in the system, but that which the body will assimilate; for, with the massage and with the addition of the Magnesia, this will be as a lubricant to the system and aid the digestive and assimilating system in caring for that taken.
The diet being principally of properties that are green vegetable, and of liquids, until the body is rid of the gaseous conditions as form from improper fermentation in the system. Also we would add a mild stimuli in the form of ANY element carrying alcohol; as beer, or wine, or spirits frumenti if WEAKENED. Only sufficient to add enough of alcoholic INFLUENCE to cause proper fermentation, and without causing the system to produce gas in the intestines. The diet followed closely, using browned whole wheat bread PRINCIPALLY. No white bread, and not any apples unless cooked. Fruits and vegetables of all characters, though it may be necessary to change same from time to time. There will be found at times some will agree when at other times they will disagree, until the system reaches the proper adjustments. Do that. Spinach, kale, and such, are especially good for the body. We are through for the present.

REPORTS

12/03/28 Mrs. [1100]'s letter: "Have been intending writing you ever since receiving the last reading for my father-in-law but have not done so. He is feeling real well again, since following suggestions, and we certainly are indebted to you for the help you have been able to give.
"We were sorry, indeed, not to be able to come down on Nov. 11th but we were with you in spirit and you certainly have our sincerest wishes for the success of the tremendous undertaking which you have begun. It is bound to succeed, Mr. Cayce, as it is dedicated to the uplift of humanity and the great Masters will see that it does."
12/26/28 "My father-in-law is much better now and we feel that he is going to be alright. He was very sick when I called you and for a few days we felt quite concerned about him. Before this spell, he was feeling unusually well, due to following your kind suggestions and, of course, he had to overdo. He bowled 3 games on Wed. before he took sick on Sat. Then he took bromo-quinine and all in all it was too much for his heart. He is 70 yrs. of age and bowling is much to strenuous for him, but because he looks so much younger and had always been well and strong, he feels that he should be able to do the things that he has always done, but we can't fool old Mother Nature, can we?"
1/24/29 "No doubt you will be surprised to learn that Mr. [3728] died on Jan. 9th. We have just ret'd from Chicago where his body was taken for burial. We had no idea the end was so near and had hopes up to the day before his death. It certainly seemed the working of Fate, Mr. Cayce, that we couldn't get a reading for him during his last spell. At first you were ill with the flu and then he got much better, so much so that the doctor had dismissed him. Then he suddenly took a turn for the worse, just the day I rec'd your letter saying that you were up and would resume your work, soon. I tried to get you when we discovered he was so much worse, but found you had gone to N.Y. and your father did not know where you could be found, so evidently it was intended that way."
