Time of Reading 10:35 to 10:50 A. M. Eastern War Time. …, Mass.

1. HLC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.

3. As we find, there are great improvements in the general physical forces of the body since last we had same here.

4. Conditions are such that it requires great precautions as to diet and as to eliminations. The lack of eliminations is the greater source of the headaches, that are disturbing the body at times. While there is a great deal better condition through the gall duct area, this with the digestive forces - which it controls in a great measure - is the source of the greater disorders through the body.

5. It would be well that a small dose of ALCAROID be taken, not constantly, but when there is any unpleasantness felt after meals. Take about a quarter teaspoonful in a whole glass of water, and drink a glass afterwards.

6. Follow this occasionally with the Zilatone, rather than with the bile salts that are usually combined with the Alcaroid. Not that the body comes to depend upon same, but the active principles in the Zilatone - with the osteopathic corrections that are still to be made occasionally throughout the cerebrospinal system - will relieve these distresses and make for bettered conditions through the body. These should not be taken as regular properties, but occasionally, - once or twice a week - that is, one or two days a week.

7. And in six weeks do have the colon irrigation, or once in six weeks, or oftener if there are disturbances through the alimentary canal.

8. Keep up the relaxing of those areas in the cerebrospinal system that aid in the impulse from the coordinating activity of the cerebrospinal plexus, - the emptying of the stomach; in the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th dorsals. These will materially aid in correcting disturbances.

9. Ready for questions.

10. (Q) In what condition is my heart? (A) This is mostly reflex, from the incoordination of the heart, lung, liver and kidney circulation, or the deeper circulation. Thus the keeping of the character of eliminations indicated, and the stimulating for activity of the emptying of the stomach through the alimentary canal, and purifying the colon, should keep down this reflex to the heart. This is NOT an organic disturbance.

11. (Q) Should I eat the white of the egg as well as the yolk of the egg? (A) This is occasionally very well. This depends a great deal upon the manner in which it is prepared. If soft boiled, about one time out of five the whole of the egg may be eaten. But the albumin in the white tends to make for activities that are more of acid-producing, and also acts on the lymph ducts through the alimentary canal, especially in the upper portion. The general foods that have been outlined are well, but occasionally these may be changed. Because, as changes come about, there needs to be the supplying of other elements for the body.

12. (Q) I seem to have a very bad odor to my breath and consequently a bad taste in my mouth. (A) This is from the stomach, and - as indicated - purify same with the Alcaroid, followed by the Zilatone - occasionally.

13. (Q) Any other suggestions regarding diet? (A) As indicated, this necessarily needs to be changed at times, but in the main keep those basic principles as to the combinations and acid-producing foods.

14. We are through with this Reading.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 2/24/43 [2517]‘s letter to EC:

…, Mass.

Dear Mr. Cayce:

The reading came yesterday morning along with your nice letter. We are all very much interested in the reading and I’m sure if I follow directions I will be helped.

The reading seemed so true to me for I have always had a very sensitive digestive system and most sensitive colon. As a little child the doctors couldn’t understand my system. Even when I was in the first grade of school I was sent home so often with headaches because I couldn’t see properly with them to say nothing of the suffering. So you can get some idea of how much this treatment is going to help me.

May I ask you a question? If my husband has a reading will it be a 10 or 20 fee. It will be his first reading.

The […]‘s tell me that [2928] is to have a reading March 2nd. I am so glad because she has been in such a helpless state physically and spent thousands of dollars but still suffers terribly.

Thanking you again for your kindness.

Sincerely, [2517]

R2. 6/19/43 Mrs. [1770]‘s friend’s letter: “I had a nice talk with Mrs. […] and she was most enthusiastic over what the reading had done for her daughter-in-law, [2517].”

R3. 11/29/45 [2517]‘s Letter: “Could I possibly obtain a copy of my first reading by Mr. Cayce? …Due to our changing our residence and likewise our doctor so often my own copy has been mislaid by my attending doctor. I have all the check readings, so the first one is all that is required.”

R4. 12/17/45 Thank you note.
