EC: Yes. Now, we find conditions as disturb the body are
both functional and organic. While some of the conditions as
appear are the most irritating or disturbing at the present,
these - as we find - are not the most serious disorder.
Conditions as exist with the blood supply are both caused BY
and the cause OF some of the disturbances, as is seen in
heart's action, as is seen in the glands and the veins
themselves - in the lower extremities, the prostate, as well
as those of digestion. To say, then, those that are organic
and those that are functional, we will find these interlock
in the disturbances as are produced in the body.
In the correction OF disorders, we will find that there must
be due consideration given as to whether that as is being
applied for a functional trouble will hinder or be oppressive
to the ORGANIC disturbance. As will be seen, those that may
aid in assimilation for the strength and vitality, or those
as may set up for the drainages in the system as would
produce the eliminations. This, so it does not cause
disorder with the GLANDS of the system, may be made MOST
beneficial.
For the BEST, as WE would find, for the conditions of the
body, we would alter or change the surroundings - that there
may be the closer attention given as respecting these
disorders as are given, and that there may be the proper
consideration given as to those applications that would be
HARMFUL, or DETRIMENTAL, at least to one portion of system,
even though aiding in functional disorders.
In administering for those of the painful conditions in the
regions as cause for the swelling, or plethora of same,
injections - as we find - of those of the opiate nature, or
hypnotic effect produced - will bring the greater relief for
the body.
Then, when these have been eased, and strength may be gained
for the REMOVAL of the body, we would alter the surroundings,
that those suggestions as may be given may be aiding in
alleviating the disturbances in the circulation, those as
make for the distresses in the nervous forces of the body,
and we may bring a much nearer normal condition for the body.
There must be the time, there must be the sincerity of the
purpose, and there must be those activities with the system
as related to the diet, as to the CONSISTENCY of those things
as will be NECESSARY for the bringing out of the very best,
and gaining of the strength and vitality as may aid in the
disturbances, which - AS SEEN - while they are of a minor,
they may be the most irritating. Do that. Ready for
questions.
(Q) What should the diet be at the present?
(A) That, that is of a pre-digestible - not digested, but
digestible - nature, that the strength and VITALITY may be
brought WITHOUT too much stress ON those of the glands in
the system.
We are through for the present.
