1. EC: Now, we have here those conditions as regarding the physical condition of [953], and that element of the condition in the physical forces of the body, especially as relating to that of the physical attempt to apply certain conditions for the body, in that of Eksip, or a cure for diabetes.

2. Now, in the application of these properties, we find there be three elements that go to make up the basic activity of the properties as contained in these. That of the Ambrosia Weed; that of the bee comb, or that created to hold the honey, and those of the secretion in the whale, or that known as the properties as has been given to the body. In the combining form of these, these produce in the system that activity of the digestion, which is as has been applied. Then, taking these properties in the system, as is outlined in the treatment for same, would, just as has been given in those properties as have been applied to the body heretofore, be beneficial to the body. Consistent application of these, or the properties as have been given to the body, we find will bring the nominal relief to body, see?

3. Then, as we would give, apply these. These will prove beneficial to the body. See?

4. We are through.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 2/15/26 [953]‘s ltr. to EC:

Dear Mr. Cayce:-

I have your recent letter enclosing reading had on the 11th regarding the medical properties of “EKSIP” and I thank you very much for this. I received the medicine a few days ago and have commenced taking it. Apparently the effect is similar to that of the medicine you prescribed in the beginning.

I had about stopped taking medicine and adjustments and was not sticking closely to the diet requirements as given in your reading previous to this one. I think the extreme cold weather and a little over taxation caused my reaction that I wrote you about from St. Louis.

I feel that if I observe closely the instructions given in this reading that I will continue to improve, so I am making a new start and including the “EKSIP” tablets in my treatment. I note you give as one of the ingredients the honey comb as prepared by bees for holding the honey. I have wondered several times whether it would be agreeable to my condition to take honey as a food in limited quantities, say in its natural state in the comb, eating honey and comb together. In your next reading on the effect of the medicine on my system, kindly advise if the honey will be agreeable to me.

B2. 2/5/26 Ltr. of appreciation for 953-19: “And now, Mr. Cayce, I have another problem where I need your guiding forces to show the way. I have rec’d the enclosed pamphlet which is self-explanatory. [GD’s note: No copy now in file.] Please give me a rdg. on it. Advise if it will be beneficial to my physical being to take the tr. as prescribed, and say of what ingredients the tablets called Eksip are composed. Not for any intent of infringement on the patent rights but that I may know of what it is composed and learn if possible the effect of each ingredient on the body. Just as we do with the medicine you prescribe in your rdgs.”
