Time of Reading 3:55 to 4:05 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. Washington, D.C. (Physical Suggestion)
-
EC: Yes - we have the body, [1123].
-
Now, as we find, there are very definite disturbances in the physical forces of this body.
-
As we find, these have arisen from properties as were injected for preventions in the physical reactions of the body. Hence those portions of the body have become involved from which assimilations produce those elements necessary for the replenishing of organs, of activity, of all forces of the body.
-
Thus the lacteal ducts are involved, or those portions where first the digestive forces draw from the digestion that influx of activity for the body.
-
So the whole of the left portion of the body is involved, but affectation arises from the right portion or caecum area.
-
Not the affectation of the vermiform appendage but rather that from which such conditions may arise eventually, without correction; yet involving more the lacteal area and the gall duct and the glandular system.
-
From same then very poor digestion arises at times, also a low blood pressure, a very slow pulsation and a general anemia.
-
These as we find are those disturbing forces in this body.
-
As we find then, in making applications of those things that may be helpful, we must take into consideration all portions of the system involved and build to that as will stimulate the activity for a more perfect balance; and allow the system through its coordination to adjust the conditions.
-
Hence from the osteopathic standpoint, first corrections must be made in the coccyx area, in the 4th lumbar; and then in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd dorsal area. At the same time, or during these periods (we wouldn’t give these closer together than twice a week), or just before these corrections are made, we would apply Castor Oil Packs over the caecum and the liver area, for half an hour, just as hot as the body can stand same, see?
-
After these are applied (let the body rest for a period, twenty to thirty minutes), then make the adjustments; and we will find it will make a great deal of difference in the manner in which there are the reactions to the eliminations and assimilations of the system.
-
Take internally the Ventriculin with Iron. This we would take three times each week, not a heaping teaspoonful but rather a level teaspoonful. This is to add to the elements of the body the ability for those activities upon the organs of the system to produce for the blood supply a better stamina, more of that hormone within the blood that strengthens the vitality of the whole of the assimilating system.
-
These we would keep up (that is, the manipulations, the oil packs, also the taking of the Ventriculin to raise the blood pressure, to increase the blood supply, for two to three weeks; then leave off for ten days or two weeks, and then repeat the whole course.
-
And we would find that these create, with the keeping of alkalinity, those abilities for the body to resist cold.
-
DO NOT give (as there is at times indicated in the body’s system) citrus fruit juices and cereals at the same meal, or even the same day - for this body! But a portion of the week have citrus fruit juices as the basis of the morning meal, or during the day, and the other portion of the week have the crushed wheat or cracked wheat (but well-cooked) as the basis of the morning meal - never the two together.
-
Let one meal each day, or the greater portion of it, consist of raw vegetables. Celery, lettuce, tomatoes, radish, onions - any or all of these should be the greater part or one whole meal each day at least.
-
Do these and as we find we will soon see a much bettered condition for this body, [1123].
-
Ready for questions.
-
We are through for the present.
