This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 15th day of October, 1939, in accordance with request made by the self - through sister, Mrs. [1129], Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

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

Time of Reading 11:30 to 11:35 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Virginia.

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

2. EC: Yes.

3. Now as we find, there are those disturbances again, which we have indicated through the involvement of the intestinal system and tract; because of inflammation arising from overexercise AND indiscretions as to the eating, and the character of combinations.

4. There will be responses to the application of the Packs, as have been indicated, and then the purifying of the system; and there needs be some massage.

5. As to the diets in the present, - we would use principally buttermilk with corn bread, but only the bread made with egg, and this alternated occasionally with sweet milk and a little whole wheat toast, or such as of that nature. These would be very well for the next few days, at least.

6. Then gradually have the more strengthening diet, with a little bit of the eggnog with spirits frumenti, though very weak, - these would be the better for the system.

7. We would have at least three to four general adjustments osteopathically, also.

8. Ready for questions.

9. (Q) The Epsom Salts or Castor Oil Packs? (A) Castor Oil Packs. The Epsom Salts Packs are only as a laxative, and - while they will aid - will NOT REMOVE those tendencies for the adhesions to be more inflammatory.

10. (Q) Anything else regarding the diet? (A) As indicated, these just for a day or two; and then, when the conditions are better; have the more strengthening foods, and gradually get back to normal, - but be very mindful, as just indicated, that there are NOT the attempts to fill the body with those things that - as should be KNOWN to the body - will not agree!

11. We are through for the present.
