This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his office, 115 West 35th Street, Virginia Beach, Va., this 13th day of March, 1931, in accordance with request made by her husband - Mr. [554].

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

Time of Reading 11:30 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Penna. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: We have the body, those conditions about the body, [629]. Now, we find there are disturbing factors in the physical forces of the body. These, we find, are from DIFFERENT causes, or a combination of causes or disorders. Some from the very nature of condition and period affect directly the nervous system, through pressures and undue activities that are caused from the pressures in the lumbar and lower dorsal region. Others, we find an accumulation from the effects of cold and congestion and the manner in which this has affected the eliminating system; so that the poisons or accumulations in same produce toxic forces, affecting the assimilating and eliminating forces of the body. The liver and the spleen become involved in this. Hence we find as these effects from these conditions: Dull headaches of mornings, tendency of evenings (if on the feet very much) for swelling in the lower limbs, and accumulations that make for acute pains in locomotion or in muscular forces of the system; nausea in the afternoon, or tendency of a heaviness in the stomach; easily irritated, and these conditions - as we find - may be aided or removed entirely from the system, will the proper precautions be taken in time for the removal and the re-adjustments of the system to meet the needs of the conditions.

2. In meeting these in the present, we would find that - will those applications in corrective measures be made for the conditions that exist along the cerebro-spinal system, alleviating the pressures that exist especially in the lumbar and in the dorsal region, also alignments - as it were - and relief of pressures in the cervical regions, or that as to the head from the central nervous system, also from the central circulatory system, with the stimuli to the digestive forces and eliminating forces - we would bring about a much bettered and an even condition in the system.

3. These we would take or prepare in TWO different preparations. First as this:

To 4 ounces of simple syrup add:

Elixir of Calisaya…2 ounces, Syrup or Oil of Sassafras…40 minims, Tincture of Valerian…1/2 ounce, 10% solution Iodide Potassium…40 minims, 10% solution Bromide Potassium…20 minims, Tincture of Capsici…3 minims.

The dose would be half a teaspoonful in water or plain two or three times each day. Especially in the afternoons or evenings would this be taken.

4. We would also prepare as THIS - make as a carrier for these:

5. Take Wild Cherry Bark 6 ounces, in 8 ounces of distilled water. Reduce to 1/2 the quantity. Then add:

Compound Syrup of Sarsaparilla…1 ounce, Dried or Powdered Podophyllum…2 grains, Tincture of Buchu Leaves…10 minims, Tincture or Essence of Wild Ginger (not tame)…20 minims.

Cut 1/2 ounce Balsam of Tolu in 2 ounces 85% alcohol and add to solution.

The dose of this (and shake together before it is taken) should be half a teaspoonful twice each day.

6. The diets should be those that are easily assimilated, and that are nerve building; that is, a great deal of green vegetables - or at least one meal each day should be of green vegetables, though mayonnaise or oil dressings may be used with same.

7. Breakfasts should be of cereals OR citrus fruits, but BEST not combine same together.

8. Evening meals may be of a little meats. Fish, oysters or shell fish may be taken in moderation. No STRONG meats or red meats!

9. The eliminations should be aided, with these properties taken, by taking high enemas or irrigations at least twice each month. Also when necessary we would use the douches for the cleansing of the irritation that occurs in the pelvic region and organs. These we would use with antiseptics that clarify or cleanse the system.

10. The manipulations and adjustments would be well to be taken at least twice each week.

11. Ready for questions.

12. (Q) How can she lose some of her weight? (A) If the proper precautions are taken as respecting those conditions that are taken as the diet, and the proper eliminations set up through the SWEATS - or those of the water cures that are given - WITH these properties taken for making the corrections - we will lose weight NOMINALLY, and NOT be harmful.

13. We are through for the present.
