Time of Reading 4:20 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Ill.

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body. You will answer any questions that I may ask you.

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

3. Now, in the physical forces of this body we find there are some complicated conditions, and disturbances from same are produced in various portions of the body; yet most of this, as we see, arises from specific causes, and with the correction of the one the greater portion of the other conditions will be relieved, or entirely brought to a normal condition.

4. While many of the conditions of the body are good, there are those disturbances that continue to give an uneasiness to the mental and to the physical forces of the body, [3739] we are speaking of. First:

5. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, we find this shows the effects of a very poor elimination. Also a very poor distribution of the forces of the blood stream. Hence we find there are defective conditions existent in the digestion and in the digestive portions of the body, and in the manner in which digestion takes place, as well as in the mesenteric system and in the glands that reproduce blood rebuilding, though - with this condition, even - not so much disturbance in the blood supply itself or blood stream as might be expected under many such similar conditions; yet we do find that the condition about the heart is from this same condition, produced, however, by the pressure as is caused in the region, rather than the condition of the organ itself.

6. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, this we find very much disturbed, and some specific centers show the effect of a deranged condition, or of a subligation, such as to cause improper nerve distribution. Not the seat, not the cause of the disturbance, yet much of the discomfiture caused to the body at present is from this source. Hence we have effects of a condition causing or producing the greater disturbance at times in the body.

7. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, brain forces are very good, as is also the organs of the sensory system, though these show the effect of the disturbed blood supply, of the poor elimination, and also of a deranged nerve system.

8. Lungs, bronchials and throat, very good.

9. Heart’s action shows the effect of those conditions as are produced about the stomach, and especially the cardiac end of the stomach - for here we find there has been produced in times back those congestions wherein there was brought about lacerations that have turned into that of a condition wherein both the cardiac and the lower end (or pyloric end) of stomach are involved, so that the stomach itself is contracted at times, and at others is as of a swelling that produces pressure to the diaphragm, causing all of this portion of the body discomfiture. Not necessarily just after eating, though it occurs at these times, and there is the general effect of this condition produced in the digestive system or throughout the hepatic circulation and mesenteric system.

10. The liver and kidneys suffer under such strains as are produced on the body by the improper digestion taking place in the body, as also does the condition existing in the colon. Hence the tendencies of the disturbances as are produced both in the ascending and traverse [transvers?] colon. These produce, as we see, inflammation at times. Hence those conditions as are to be remedied are as first the circulatory system, the nerve supply, and the digestion. These are to be met, each in their way as to keep the better balance for the whole system.

11. First, we would use this - as constant - for at least three to five weeks: Charcoal tablets, such as are prepared by the Kellogg laboratories. These are prepared in a better way than those of Stuart or other places. Taking one each day - this will sweeten as well as produce better assimilation throughout the entire mesenteric system, or digestive tract from the stomach to the colon, see?

12. We would prepare as this to be taken rather as a tonic - so this may be left off occasionally, but the body should take this as a TONIC for the DIGESTIVE system, and for the correction of those conditions as are produced in the system of first a hydrochloric, then of too much of the lactics as are produced, dependent upon the circulation, or of the nerve pressure as is produced; for we have too much of the regurgitation to stomach at times. Again we find the acid existent too much and none of that of the non-acidity appearing in the upper intestine’s digestion. Hence the pains as are caused in the right portion of the body when digestion has begun or is taking place at times. The forming of gas, the disturbance as is caused across the lower portion of the abdomen, and the indirect reaction as is seen from same occasionally in the kidneys. See? Prepare this:

13. To six (6) ounces of distilled water, add: Four (4) ounces of ambrosia or ragweed. Reduce by simmering (not boiling) to four (4) ounces. Strain. Then add two (2) ounces of cane sugar, dissolved in one (1) ounce of hot water. Then cut two (2) drams of Balsam of Tolu in two (2) ounces of pure grain alcohol and add to same.

14. The dose of this would be teaspoonful two to four (2 to 4) times each day, see? until the whole quantity is taken - or it may be left off occasionally and only take once each day, but get the reaction of this thoroughly through the system.

15. And apply to the solar plexus that of the Radium Appliance as is found in the Double X Pad. Do that. Although this may cause some irritation at first, with the medicinal properties, we will find the radiations from same will be that which will cause the perfect eliminations, the building up of the blood supply, and of the rejuvination of the nerves.

16. Ready for questions.

17. (Q) How long will it take to effect a cure for this condition? (A) Following these suggestions it should be perfect in the eliminations, rid of the stomach conditions, bettered in the circulation and in the nerve supply, in sixty to ninety days.

18. We are through for the present.

Mr. Edgar Cayce, 115 W. 35th St., Virginia Beach, Va.

My dear Mr. Cayce:-

Acting upon the suggestion of our mutual friend Mr. David E. Kahn I am writing you to ask you for a physical and mental reading upon myself.

I understand that I am not to give you any of the symptoms of my condition, but I have enough confidence in your work to ask you a few questions. Please give me a complete physical reading of my system first and ask these questions.

1. What is the present condition of the stomach?
2. What is the cause of this condition?
3. Where can the treatment be taken?
4. How long will it take to effect a cure for the condition?

Give the body specific advice to relieve the present condition and bring the body to its perfect equalibrium.

I am enclosing a check to cover this reading and will appreciate your immediate attention.

If you can give me an appointment for Friday this week, I will be at Space Factories, Chicago 11 AM to 4 PM. If not, advise when you can give me an appointment and I will advise if satisfactory.

Sincerely, [3739]
