The rationale of this process is as follows. The palm of the right hand and the fore part of the body are both + (or positive) magnetic poles. The left palm and the back part of the body are both — (or negative) poles.

You were not kidding about the wordiness. This passage seems silly, given it is easy to verify with a magnet.

Sad to say yes we do feed dogs corn.

Yeah, cats and dogs only get diabetes when living with humans.

She was one hundred and four years of age, while her husband was one hundred and six. He was erect and vigorous, appearing no older than a civilized man of sixty. Amono- the native, wild tribes of Central America many persons are found to be considerably over one hundred years of age. In one instance, where records have been kept, a man now living, active and in good health, is known to be over one hundred and fifty, and is supposed to be nearly two hundred years old.^

I wonder about the record keeping, but telomeres in cells should be good enough for 120 year old humans.

Medicines alone will not cure the disease. They are merely aids to the restoration of healthy states, after the cause, or the unhealthy alimentation is remove

The chapter on diabetes is interesting, the protocol is low carb until the urine is back to normal, then he reintroduces breads.

The patient can tear down more in one minute, by indulging in the forbidden, than the physician can build up in three days

To effect a cure, we must cut off (as far as possible) aU food which goes to make animal sugar

Swing and a miss, ha, nobody is perfect.

His food experiments were really forward thinking!

The experiments upon meat feeding showed that meats, and especially beef and mutton, can be subsisted upon without resulting in diseased states, for a much longer time than can the best vegetable products under the same conditions. The reason of this is that the first organ of the digestive apparatus — the stomach — is a meat-digesting organ. I have had patients afflicted with grave diseases, thrive and become perfectly well upon beef. Many of them have continued this as an exclusive diet from three to four years, before bringing breads and vegetables into their diet list. Good, fresh beef and mutton stand at the head of all aliments as foods promotive of- human health.

Wow, all the microscope sketches! the man was dedicated
