Every morning and every evening, immediately on rising and just before retiring, devote from three to five minutes to vigorous deep breathing exercises. If the bowels are constipated, take a tablespoonful of wheat bran on rising; also a small bunch of grapes and a glass of water. Take a spoonful or two of wheat bran, cooked, with the breakfast and evening meals, and another spoonful in hot water just before retiring. The quantity of bran taken should be governed by the severity of the condition. When the bowels are once regulated, the quantity may be modified, or perhaps omitted entirely.

Appetite is a cultivated desire expressed through a sense of /Craving/. Hunger is the normal demand for food, expressed through the salivary glands. Appetite is the desire for liquor, coffee, tobacco, morphin, etc., and for food when one habitually overeats. It is expressed by an empty feeling or craving in the stomach, while hunger is felt only in the salivary glands, and in the region of the throat and the mouth. Appetite weakens the body; hunger stimulates thought and action. Normal hunger can be produced by limiting the quantity of food below the actual needs of the body, for three or four days, or perhaps a week. When normal hunger returns, the quantity may be increased, but the combinations should be observed for a week or two.
