Whole
grains
of
various
kinds,
wheat,
rye,
oats
and
barley,
simmered
in
hot
water
for
a
long
time
until
properly
softened,
not
only
afford
a
high
degree
of
nourishment,
but
will
be
found
of
special
value
as
a
means
of
remedying
constipation.
They
are
best
if
used
in
their
natural
state,
just
as
they
come
from
the
farm.
They
are
more
valuable
when
eaten
raw
with
fruit
or
cream,
or
in
some
other
palatable
form,
than
when
cooked.
When
flaked
or
crushed,
as
in
the
case
of
ordinary
oatmeal,
they
may
be
used
with
figs,
dates,
raisins
and
a
little
cream,
or
they
may
be
eaten
with
a
little
honey.
One
bowl
of
this
class
of
food,
either
raw
or
cooked,
each
day,
is
very
effective
in
overcoming
constipation.
Salads
of
various
kinds
not
only
have
great
value
by
way
of
supplying
food
for
the
nerves,
but
they
are
also
worth
while
for
their
mild
laxative
effect.
I
would
recommend
all
forms
of
uncooked
green
food,
chiefly
to
be
used
in
the
form
of
salads,
such
as
lettuce,
tomatoes,
onions,
celery,
radishes,
cucumbers,
cold
slaw,
water-cress,
parsley,
and
the
like.
All
cooked
green
vegetables
such
as
spinach,
asparagus,
string
beans,
fresh
green
peas,
Brussels
sprouts,
dandelion
leaves,
greens,
cabbages,
mushrooms
and
other
foods
of
this
sort
will
likewise
be
helpful.
Fruits
are
of
even
greater
value
for
their
laxative
qualities.
One
should
use
them
freely
for
ordinary
health
building,
but
especially
when
suffering
from
this
complaint.
Apples,
oranges,
grapefruit,
peaches,
plums,
grapes,
and
various
berries
are
exceptionally
good
for
increasing
alimentary
activity,
though
all
kinds
of
fruit
are
valuable.
Prunes
and
figs
are
particularly
recommended.
Such
acid
fruits
as
lemons,
oranges
and
grapefruit
are
valuable
not
only
for
their
stimulating
qualities
in
connection
with
constipation,
but
also
because
of
their
antiseptic
influence.
