This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 9th day of August, 1935, in accordance with request made by the self - Mr. [898], Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.
[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. L. B. Cayce.]
Time of Reading 10:35 to 10:50 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. Washington, D.C. (Physical Suggestion)
-
EC: Yes, we have the body here, [898].
-
Much improvement, many changes, do we find in this body from that we last had in the physical forces of the body.
-
There has NOT been the gain in weight as has been desired or felt by the body should be, under the circumstances. Yet those disturbing factors in the lungs and in the blood supply have been eradicated much, and improvements have begun to show; which indicates the betterments that have come about in the body.
-
As we find, we would alter SOMEWHAT the diet, in making for more of those things that will be body-building in the blood supply. However, we would not change from the malted milk, the extra food values, if these agree with the body; but these will depend upon the mental attitude as well as the physical activities, see?
-
We would add at least two or three times each week the broiled liver.
-
And, as a tonic, we would take thirty minutes before each meal half a teaspoonful of Wyethe’s Beef, Iron and Wine. Drink at least a full glass of water after the half teaspoonful is taken. Of course, it is indicated on the bottle that a dessertspoonful or tablespoonful should be taken as a dose; but this we would not do, with the food values altered.
-
We would have the juices of vegetables, along with and IN the COOKED vegetables; not separated.
-
Other than these changes, we would keep near to the manner that we have heretofore indicated.
-
Also we would change the electrical vibrations by making application more in the upper cervical and over the nose area.
-
As an antiseptic or clearer for the nasal passages, we would use an inhalant - prepared in this manner:
-
To 4 ounces of PURE grain alcohol (not diluted, but pure grain alcohol - 190% proof), add - IN THE ORDER NAMED:
Oil of Eucalyptus…20 minims, Rectified Creosote…3 minims, Compound Tincture of Benzoin…15 minims, Rectified Oil of Turp…5 minims, Oil of Pine Needles…3 minims, Tolu in solution…40 minims.
Keep this in a glass-corked container at least twice the size of the solution, or about a six to eight ounce bottle, you see, with a glass stopper. Shake well and inhale at night before retiring, and in the morning upon arising when the body is prepared for the day; deep inhalations through the nostrils and into the lungs, two to three times at each inhalation.
-
Do this, and keep the general activities that have been indicated.
-
Ready for questions.
-
(Q) Do I need more than eight hours’ sleep? (A) Eight hours should be sufficient.
-
(Q) Why do I get so tired with the least exertion? (A) There has been naturally through the general physical organism those dependencies upon the toxic forces to make for a stimulation. The poisons are being gradually eliminated, naturally leaving the muscular forces and the energizing forces or influences in the system to become more dependent upon the use of the vital forces that are builded by that assimilated. This will gradually disappear as strength and vitality are stored, for the body is gradually building up.
-
(Q) Does nervous energy use up all the food qualities I take in my body? (A) As indicated, we would take more food values. It is used up physically AND mentally, see? But the lack is rather, as we have indicated, in the stimulation of the enzymes in the blood supply, which may be added by the properties in the Beef, Iron and Wine; also by the vegetables and juices of the beef only, though it should be broiled and not fried. These will add to the system strength and vitality.
-
We are through with this reading.

Reports & Follow-up
R1. 9/5/35 [898]‘s letter to EC:
Mr. Edgar Cayce, Virginia Beach, Va.
Dear Mr. Cayce,
A thousand thanks for the check reading. I believe that I have gained something from the reading and I believe it will help me. I have been feeling very good lately and I have gained a little. I was 109 pounds and now I am 114 pounds.
I am moving to Falls Church, Virginia and I believe being out there will help me gain more. I am moving into a bungalow and will have more time to be in the open and have the fresh country air all around me.
From now on my address will be just FALLS CHURCH, VIRGINIA. Thanking you again for the check reading and you will find inclosed my donation for the month of September.
Sincerely your friend, [898]
