Valere aude (dare to be healthy) : $b or, The light of physical regeneration
Dechmann, Louis
Diet therapy; Health
With this vital knowledge at command I have been able to successfully
formulate a system for supplying the individual organism with any of the
various constituents of which it may be deficient, in a manner in which
it can best receive and assimilate the same, thereby maintaining a
correct balance between the constituents of the blood wherein lies
hidden the sole criterion of health and the fatal secret of disease.
Simple as this may sound, the way has been long and lonely until that
elusive goal was reached; and, even now, in the heat of the controversy
which ensues, we find ourselves sometimes in a somewhat parlous
position, placed, as it were, between two fires; on the one side are
those who, though not without sympathetic feeling for the
well-intentioned, earnest-minded believers in the errors now being
exposed, yet cast aside all scruples in the interest of humanity and
truth. On the other side are those obsessed by care and compunction for
these accredited practitioners who by reason of age or temperament are
unable or unwilling to assimilate new ideas or to relinquish the
theories of a life time in order to enter the field of competition with
the men of a younger generation.
Such is the impasse before which we stand.
REGENERATION OF THE RACE
BY THE LIGHT OF BIOLOGY AIDED BY PHYSIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY.
"For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members
of that one body, being many, are one body:... whether one member
suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured,
all the members rejoice with it."
(St. Paul, I Corinthians, XII. 12 & 26.)
"_DYSAEMIA, or Impure Blood is the cause and source of disorder in
all constitutional diseases. So spoke the Master. Believe it who
will, that, in a nutshell, is 'the burden of my song'--the Alpha
and Omega of my teaching_."
(From Chapter X. "Dare to be Healthy.")
_The Process of Natural Healing_ is the art of curing diseases by
natural methods.
As natural remedies, only those may be included which stand as vital
conditions in constant relation to the organism, assimilable thereby.
Among these are no poisons or chemical preparations, such as were
promulgated by Paracelsus and the medicasters; for these are elements
abnormal to the body, and call forth its reactionary powers, and so,
being useless, they are eliminated; or, after having served an improper
purpose, to _suppress_ some symptom of disease, they become embedded in
the tissues, there causing various forms of medicinal complication or
morbid condition.
Do we not produce blood poisons enough by our irrational diet and modes
of living? The human body is a microcosm--a world in minature--and as
such, exists in constant interchange with universal nature.
A definite relationship exists between it and the solid, fluid and
gaseous elements.
