Naturally
when
the
contents
of
the
alimentary
canal
are
allowed
to
accumulate
for
a
considerable
period
and
there
is
sluggishness
throughout
the
various
parts
of
the
small
and
large
intestines,
poisons
of
all
kinds
are
generated
and
absorbed
into
the
circulation,
thus
creating
conditions
ranging
all
the
way
from
a
feeling
of
lethargy
to
a
condition
of
weakness
and
disease
that
confines
one
to
an
invalid's
bed.
Regardless
of
the
attention
that
you
may
give
to
the
other
information
in
this
book,
it
is
extremely
important
that
you
should
realize
the
necessity
for
active
elimination.
It
is
necessary
in
the
maintenance
of
alimentary
health
to
avoid
a
slavish
adherence
to
the
theory
of
definitely
regular
movements
of
the
bowels
and
still
not
to
make
the
mistake
of
allowing
them
to
become
chronically
sluggish
or
irregular.
As
a
rule
you
should
depend
upon
having
regular
movements
each
day,
though
if
occasionally
a
day
is
missed
you
should
not
allow
this
deviation
to
worry
you.
Recognizing
as
I
do
the
great
importance
of
a
healthy
alimentary
canal
I
have
given
a
vast
amount
of
attention
to
the
various
methods
which
have
been
suggested
from
time
to
time
by
students
of
natural
healing
for
assisting
to
regulate
the
functional
processes
of
this
important
part
of
our
organism.
The
flushing
of
the
lower
bowel
for
instance
has
been
widely
recommended,
and
it
is
unquestionably
of
value
in
some
cases.
However,
it
cleanses
only
the
lower
part
of
the
alimentary
canal,
that
is
to
say,
the
colon.
It
assists
the
small
intestines
no
doubt
by
giving
their
contents
free
access
to
the
colon,
but
yet
this
aid
cannot
directly
affect
them.
If
you
have
in
view
the
cleansing
of
the
entire
alimentary
canal
from
stomach
to
rectum,
the
enema
is
often
of
indifferent
value.
The
use
of
various
laxative
foods
can
be
recommended
in
most
instances,
though
even
these
sometimes
fail
to
bring
about
satisfying
results,
and
then
again
there
are
cases
where
they
provide
a
remedy
for
only
a
short
period,
after
which
the
bowels
resume
their
old
state
of
chronic
torpidity.
Naturally
we
cannot
consider
cathartics
of
any
kind,
notwithstanding
their
power
to
produce
temporary
results.
In
all
cases
the
after
effects
of
their
use
are
seriously
destructive
to
the
delicate
nerves
controlling
the
alimentary
canal
and
its
functions
in
general.
Cathartics
invariably
make
the
real
condition
more
obstinate
and
serious.
