TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, we find this body is very good throughout, yet there are some abnormal conditions. They have to do with the excretory functioning of the system. The effect as produced from this in the blood supply and the assimilation and elimination through the emunctories. We have rather an emunctory and lymphatic condition than organic, yet the functionings of some organs become involved.
2. Now, these are the conditions as we find them in this body, Mr. [4302], we are speaking of: The blood supply in this system is good, being above the normal at times in pressure. The condition of the blood, from the action of the emunctories in the liver and the action of the digestive forces, causes at times the toxins to be carried back into the system without proper circulation being carried on or without the elimination being thrown into the dross and through the channels as it should. Being backed up by the lymphatic circulation shows and gives its expression in the capillary circulation and is shown in the cuticle of the body in the form of the abrasions that emit and throw out this secretion, see. The number of red blood cells in the body are above the normal and are good in their elemental and component factors. That of the white and lymphatic is weak in producing the resistive force on account of the condition in the liver and the digestive tract. The affect of the circulation through the hepatics is cold rather than high, hence the body through the respiratory glands or the body easily gets up, as it would be termed, perspiration, see, and it becomes rather cold or clammy and irritable in portions of the body, see.
3. The nervous system, we find the body is very good. The body would be termed rather one well controlled through the whole nervous system. The body has a weakened sympathetic nervous condition as shown through the internal nerve forces rather than that of cerebrospinal nerve energy lost, see. Through the functioning of the organs themselves, we find the body very good - brain force active, above the ordinary in discernment and discrimination. The functioning of the organs of the sensory system rather acute, though at times are overtaxed by the affect of stimulus from the circulation, and to portions of the organs of the sensory system, the strain shows when the secretions are not exude from the system, that is, as is shown by the eyes at times, the condition of the ears, the condition of the throat, the choking or clearing, you see. Through the functioning of the lungs the body is good. Through the digestive tract we find when the body is not eliminating through the capillary or skin, the stomach itself presents the condition as found at such times as it does as seen from the skin, for the stomach lining, you see, for the body becomes overtaxed with the acid condition of the system. The liver, the seat of the trouble in its functioning, especially in that of the emunctories and lymphatic circulation, the excretory functioning being low, as well as secretive functioning, causing at times a taxation to the kidneys and an overactivity at times in assisting to eliminate from the system. The body should drink about twice as much water as it does, see.
4. To give the correct balance to the system and to rid the body of this condition we would take this into the system:
5. To one gallon of distilled water, add:

   Sarsaparilla Root.................4 ounces,
Yellow Dock Root..................2 ounces,
Burdock Root......................2 ounces,
Prickly Ash Bark..................2 ounces,
Calisaya Bark.....................1 ounce,
Mandrake Root....................10 grains,
Buchu Leaves.....................15 grains.

   This would be simmered, not boiled, to one quart - strain, while warm add 6 ounces of grain alcohol with 3 drams of Balsam of Tolu cut in it. The dose would be teaspoonful three times each day just before meals. The diet shall be not of meats, especially, not of swine or dog meats, see. No stimulants save this while this is being taken. After the half quantity has been taken use the vibrations from the violet ray over the whole length of the spinal column, three minutes each evening and drink plenty of water. By the time the first quantity and half of the second is taken the body will be rid of this condition. Do that.
6. (Q) Mr. Cayce, will that remedy cure the skin trouble this body has?
   (A) We just said it would. We meant it. Can't take these things, though, and eat meats and do things we ought not to.
7. We are through.
