Vitality Supreme

This
hot-water-drinking
regimen
is
not
necessarily
recommended
as
a
permanent
measure
to
be
continued
every
day
for
an
indefinite
period.
When
you
feel
that
your
physical
status
is
satisfactory
in
every
way,
you
can
drop
the
method
for
a
few
days,
after
which
it
can
be
resumed
as
desired,
though
it
would
be
of
advantage
to
continue
taking
the
exercises
each
day,
and
if
even
one
or
two
glasses
of
hot
water
are
taken
beneficial
results
would
accrue.
CHAPTER
VII:
Exercise
for
Vitality
Building
Inactivity
is
non-existence.
It
means
death.
Our
bodily
powers
and
organs
were
given
to
us
for
a
definite
purpose.
Failure
to
use
them
brings
serious
penalties.
There
can
be
no
real
health
with
physical
stagnation.
To
be
sure,
we
may
point
to
some
men
possessing
extraordinary
vitality
who,
apparently,
have
lived
without
exercise.
But
a
study
of
their
habits
of
life
will
usually
bring
to
light
some
form
of
muscular
activity,
even
if
it
be
nothing
more
than
a
moderate
amount
of
walking.
In
some
cases,
such
extraordinary
vitality
may
be
possessed
that
health
laws
can
be
broken
with
apparent
impunity,
but
it
will
usually
be
found
that
a
vigorous
constitution
was
developed
in
early
youth
from
plenty
of
exercise.
However,
the
failure
to
observe
these
important
bodily
requirements
invariably
means
trouble
before
reaching
the
period
at
which
old
age
begins.
Though
the
average
of
human
life
has
been
greatly
increased
through
the
decline
in
infant
mortality,
the
death
rate
among
men
of
middle
age
has
more
than
doubled
in
the
past
thirty
years.
And
even
if
those
of
exceptional
vitality
can
neglect
their
physical
requirements
without
suffering,
the
man
of
limited
energy,
who
is
trying
to
build
vitality,
certainly
cannot
afford
to
do
so.
