Nature provides local deposition sites for agents which if allowed to accumulate and circulate in the blood and tissue fluids would destroy the body. In the short chapter dealing with cysts and fibroids, local pathologies brought about by depositions from the circulating fluids, I have given evidence of this protective local safeguard of the body against the constitutional fatal derangements which must result if the deposited chemicals were allowed to remain in the systemic circulation. The fluid contents of a cyst must necessarily come from the blood circulation. What a terrific systemic chemical effect must be brought about if this fluid was retained in the blood stream. In her efforts to safeguard the body nature forms a trap- an abnormal blood chemical trap-varying in its tissue pathology, and its medical nomenclature according to the tissue site in which the protective trap is formed.
If the human engineer of a machine places in the workings of that machine a trap for chemical detritus, which is necessary for the normal motivation of the machine, because the exhausts also provided have proven insufficient for the requisite removal of these dangerous products of internal combustion, and someone, not realizing their nature and their causative necessity, comes along and removes their protective presence-disaster must sooner or later eventuate. This is what surgery does for Nature -man removes the protection of local depositions and converts a local pathology into an increasing systemic morbidity brought about by the abnormal blood chemical agents which have no longer their local protective reservoir.
Until medical science recognizes the chemical significance of depositions from the blood and tissue fluids in various body localizations and tissues, no progress can be made towards the removal from mankind of many of his crippling and destroying dysfunctions. The man who disregards the universal laws of gravitation will soon have his vitality dashed out of him, and medical science, which at present routinely disregards the universal law of cause and effect in dealings with cysts, fibroid, rheumatism, cancer, etc., and confines all efforts against these crippling and destroying effects to ruthlessly cutting out, burning or drugging the effects while allowing the causes to persist, must be condemned as relentlessly as it condemns the victims to oblivion.
The medical profession today has become an institution bound by man made conventions and regulations. More and more in the past few decades have medical men become dependent on the engineer for their surgical machines and instruments and his machine made drugs and extracts. But more and more in a mechanical age has the profession lost sight of the simple lesson observable in any engineer’s shop by those whose eyes are open, that power or vitality is dependent on maintenance of the proper chemistry of the fuel-the food ingested-the dysfunctioning or clogging effect on the exhaust or excretory apparatus by abnormalities in the chemistry of the fuel and the wise and proven necessity for the engineer to provide local deposition sites, reservoirs or traps for chemical impurities which, if allowed to remain in the engine, will destroy its power and finally stop it altogether. The engine wears out-man grows old-the engine stops- man dies. This is natural with time, but when it occurs through ignorance, or worse still through disregard of proven truths, those bringing about such results stand condemned.
