This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 15th day of April, 1942, in accordance with request made by the daughter - Dr. […], Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

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

Osteopathic Hosp. Time of Reading 48th & Spruce Sts., 10:35 to 10:45 A. M. Eastern War Time. Philadelphia, Penna.

  1. GC: 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.

  3. As we find, conditions are not so serious as when we first had same, but those tendencies and inclinations, and those swellings in the lower portion of the duodenum continue.

  4. We would consistently apply the Castor Oil Packs over the area, combined with the reducing of those tendencies for congestion that arise in the area from which this portion of the body receives the impulse for activity.

  5. This will not only eliminate the disturbance but reestablish a better normal flow of energy, both as to impulse from nerve and lymph circulation through those areas.

  6. Well to keep the body quiet at times, but there should be SOME activity for the body.

  7. Ready for questions.

  8. (Q) Please advise as to diet and treatment, if there is to be any change. (A) As we find, altogether a liquid diet under the circumstance tends to produce gas. There should be more of the colonic irrigations to cleanse the whole colon. But the diet should be rather of a semi-liquid nature, and almost predigested foods; such as beef juices, whole grain cereals well cooked, orange juice, and the like. These should form the basis, though not all the diet.

These as we find are the better for the body.

  1. We are through with this Reading.
