MALNUTRITION.
The cause must be located and treated accordingly, and they may be in the endocrines, the digestive and assimilatives, or elsewhere-even in the mind. The food remedy given under Endocrines may be of value.
It must be pointed out that the best of medicines are but an aid in restoring health, while medicine at its worst is destructive interference with natural laws.
In my opinion pure, natural food should be our only medicine, and I believe that in due course the prevention of disease by means of correct feeding will be a possibility. At present few foods are really health giving. Indeed one wonders that the civilised peoples of the earth are as well as they are, for they feed on a great deal of commercialised rubbish. Even the crops are sick owing to the dangerous treatment of the soil with crude, poisonous fertilisers.
What crude chemicals do to the human organism they also do to the soil.
The only way to produce pure food, rich in all the necessary salts, vitamins and life-giving elements, is to follow the Biblical laws on the subject and rest the earth in a biological manner, returning to it that which has been taken away in the way intended by nature.
Man, who so often thinks himself wiser, than nature, has much to learn; but light is dawning and methods of natural compositing are being adopted with satisfactory results. The soil, if properly treated, will produce building and vitalizing foods, and such foods will restore and maintain health. Sane feeding for three or four generations would, in my opinion, banish most physical diseases from the face of the earth. The same facts apply to sheep and cattle: they, too, feed on poisoned crops and most of them are, in consequence, unfit for human consumption.

MENTAL STATES.
A condition of mind is often a basic factor in the physical manifestation of disease, and it is mainly to the homoeopathic school that we are indebted for the discovery of the mental therapeutics of remedies given in potency.
I must mention that there is ample evidence that the Bach mental remedies have their place in this branch of healing, and every progressive healer should possess the writings of Dr. Bach. As his books are available I have not included his remedies here. In the list which follows the discoveries of Dr. Guyon Richards are very prominent. The higher potencies seem to act most favourably on the mental processes, hence a well-indicated remedy may be given in the C.M. Results from remedies lower than 30c or 30x, are not to be anticipated.

These remedies for mental states should prove very effective, but the good accomplished is unlikely to last unless the sufferer corrects his faulty habits of thought. Most people are governed by what we may term ” conditions thinking.” They think along settled lines and rarely know that they do so, except that they are bound by ancestral ties and imitate those with whom they are, or have been associated. Ideas without foundations govern the conduct of a great many. Health means freedom of mind and body, the elimination of mental and physical toxins and the removal of fear, greed, possessiveness, touchiness, anger, resentment, pride, false humility, jealousy and selfishness in any of its many forms. It means the casting off of every process of thought which produces tension (disease- lack of ease) and which limits the operation of the life force. Health is internal harmony. It may be said that the body is the physical expression of the mental condition which governs it. For example: constipated and contracted intestines suggest constipated, tied- up thinking.
