[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. L. B. Cayce.]

Time of Reading 11:20 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, N.Y. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [261]. Now, acute conditions have arisen, produced by indigestive force active with the gastric juices, through overtaxation which has brought about acute conditions.

2. As we would find, small doses of Milk of Bismuth should be taken, two to three times each day. These, as we find, would allay the condition - but, should the aggravation be such as to produce a rupture in those forms as would make for greater infection, well that the operative forces be immediate; or, should the RESPONSES be such, these - as we find - would NOT be necessary, possibly not at all - will there be the recuperations brought to the system.

3. The application of the ultra-violet AND Infra Red would both be beneficial to the body. The Infra Red should be applied at or about the 5th, 4th, 3rd, 1st and 2nd dorsal, or in the region from which there is the emanation of nerve impulse to the stomach proper. The ultra-violet would be better if made from the liver area. This for a very short duration.

4. The diet should be of the pre-digested, or those foods easily assimilated by the system.

5. These would be the conditions as we would find.

6. Ready for questions.

7. (Q) How often should the Infra Red and ultra-violet be applied? (A) About twice each week, alternated.

8. (Q) Would you advise sweats and rubs? (A) Would be WELL that the RUBS be given. As to the sweats, these would be best had as tub sweats. The rubs should be with the combination of oils and alcohol, along the spine.

9. (Q) What size dose of Bismuth should be taken at a time? (A) Two teaspoonfuls - Milk of Bismuth.

10. We are through with this reading.
