ssary, in the form of food. The cell will take care of the rest.
Each tissue has its specific cell-system, and each cell will be
attracted only by those ingredients which are needed for the mother
tissue.

_To bring to a tissue through the blood the lacking constituent element
or elements is the only means of regenerating and healing diseased
cells._

In this connection we are considering only constitutional diseases.

It has been shown that the lack of certain chemical elements from the
blood signifies disease and that the variety of the disease depends on
which of the elements are either lacking entirely or are present in
incorrect proportion.

After this lack has been determined, the course to pursue in curing the
disease is to supply the lacking chemical elements in the form of
concentrated cell-food in _addition_ to the regular food.

This method displaces entirely the old system of filling the body
with poisonous drugs in order to _counteract the effects of the
disease_. Such a system may suppress the symptoms by benumbing the
nerves and preventing pain, it may counteract the natural process of
healing of which inflammation, fever and pain, are the outward
manifestations;--_but it can never cure_.

The discovery of dysaemia, or impaired blood supply, as the governing
cause of disease, has destroyed another idol of modern fetish worship in
medicine.

Since the discovery of various species of bacilli, which accompany
nearly every form of disease in some form or other, these have been
commonly declared to be the causes of diseases, and the tendency is to
find some poison that will kill the bacilli in order to cure the
disease.

The bacillus, on the contrary, is only the consequence, or symptom, of a
disease. The diseased and decomposing parts furnish fertile soil
suitable to the propagating of bacilli because of the lack of the normal
chemical elements in the blood and tissue. But to kill them, while the
underlying conditions for their reproduction remain unchanged, can,
obviously, never effect a cure. So the great hopes that have attached to
sero-therapy are doomed to disappointment, and the application of
anti-toxins prepared from the serum of animals, are fated shortly to
vanish in the wake of others of those strange temporary crazes which
periodically obsess mankind for a while and pass away.

The discovery that a dysaemic condition of the blood leads to certain
destructive processes termed diseases,
