The blood is very good throughout, it carrying, however,
some of the effect, at the present time, of the conditions
as exist in the intestinal tract causing some unpleasant
conditions through other portions of the body, even to the
capillary circulation, and its affect on the cuticle in the
eliminating. There is a lack of the white blood forces,
they being used, as it were, above the normal number for the
lacerations that appear in portions of the system causing
more in number to be the natural effect when in use, and the
system does not create a sufficient number to care fully for
the condition, else there would be an excess of this factor
in the blood forces. The nerves as we find along the spine
in their centers, we find there are some that give too much
of a lax condition to portions of the body, while others are
working just the opposite, so we have a body that, at times,
feels a dull achy feeling, especially, through the lumbar and
sacrum region. This shows in a lesion formed along the lower
lumbar. The action of this same condition over the sensory
system shows in the effect it has on the organs of the
sensory organism. The organs themselves present a very
good action in the functioning. We find through the lung
force in the action of the hepatic circulation that it shows
the condition as produced through the digestive forces, and
its action through the blood force to the larynx and the
bronchials at times, therefore, the body is easy to take
congestion and has at times an extra amount of secretions as
given, especially, to the nostrils, you see. This is a
reflex condition, and local treatments, either by suggestion
or by the physical, only act as temporary relief. We must
reach the seat of the trouble if we would be relieved
entirely. Through the stomach itself, we find the pepsins
or peptones as acting with the system to produce the lactic
fluids, show there is a lack of this, so through the
esophagus, we find the signs of the first disturbance in
digestive forces, also, in the pyloric end from which the
impressions are reached through the pneumogastric, and they
give off with these impressions the affect that it has had
between the pneumogastric and the organs of the respiratory
system. In this, the pyloric end, we find the lacerations
produced by the over amount of the hydrochloric forces, hence
the body suffers through indigestion, for throughout the
intestinal tract, that is, of the upper portion of the
intestinal tract where the Peyerian [Peyers] glands assist
in the digestion that causes then this trouble with this
portion of the body, constipation and over-taxation at times
to the rest of the viscera, some inflammation is experienced
through the kidneys or the organs of the pelvis, overtaxed
nervous strain. Much of it produced from the lack of
imperfect assimilation and imperfect distribution of forces
in the system.
To bring the proper conditions to this body, we would give
this in the system for the physical conditions existing:
To four pints of rain water, we would add eight ounces of
sage, dried. This should be simmered or steeped until the
quantity is reduced to two pints. To this we would add six
ounces of cane sugar, first dissolved, that is the sugar, in
warm water before added to this solution, then strain, then
add while warm six ounces of gin and fifteen grains of
Ambergris, dissolved in one ounce of grain alcohol. Add to
this three drams of cinnamon bark, not the ground. Shake the
solution before each dose is taken, which would be half an
hour before meals and would be a tablespoonful. The diet -
let the body eat what it desires but more regular than it has
been accustomed to heretofore, you see, in some instances.
Do not be afraid to eat things, but do not eat over amounts -
not too much sweets, but if the body calls for sweets, eat
sweets, see.
Do this and by the time the second quantity, two quarts, have
been taken, this body will be rid of these conditions. Do
that.
(Q) Mr. Cayce, is this body getting plenty of proteins?
(A) Not sufficient. We are giving the diet as the body
calls for it, see. The body has hindered itself by finding
things disagreeing. With these properties as given, the
body could digest "nails" if they were taken, you see.
