The system of the healing art which I advocate and practice, not only repudiates all the remedies of the drug schools, but denies the philosophy on which their employment is predicated. It charges their practice with being destructive, and their theory with being false. It ignores all the fundamental premises of all drug-medical systems, and declares the truth to be the exact contrary of what they teach.

Says Professor C. A. Gilman, M.D., of the same school: Many of the chronic diseases of adults are caused by the maltreatment of infantile diseases. Again: Blisters nearly always produce death when applied to children. Again: I give mercury to children when I wish to depress the powers of life. And again: The ap plication of Opium to the true skin of an infant is very likely to produce death. And yet again: A single drop of laudanum will often destroy the life of an infant. And once more: Four grains of calomel will often kill an adult. And, finally: A mild mer curial course, and mildly cutting a man's throat, are synonymous terms.
Says Professor Alonzo Clark, M.D., of the same school: From thirty to sixty grains of calomel have been given very young children for croup. Again: Apoplectic patients, who are not bled, have double the chance to recover that those have who are bled. And again: Physicians have learned that more harm than good has been done by the use of drugs in the treatment of measles, scarlatina, and other self-limited diseases. And yet again: My experience is, that croup can't well be cured; at least, the success of treatment is very doubtful. A different mode of treatment is introduced yearly, to be succeeded by another the next year. Once more: Ten thousand times ten thousand methods have been tried, in vain, to cure diabe tes. Still another: In their zeal to do good, physicians have done much harm. They have hurried many to the grave who would have recovered if left to nature. And, finally: All of our curative agents are poisons; and, as a consequence, every dose diminishes the patient's vitality.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a passionate argument against the prevailing medical practices of the 19th century, particularly the use of drugs. The author, a practitioner of "Hygienic medication," as it was known, argues that true healing lies within the body's own natural powers. He lays out a system based on the use of natural agents such as water, air, light, diet, and exercise to restore health. The book provides detailed instructions on various water-based treatments, including packs, baths, douches, and compresses, offering a detailed guide for readers to employ these techniques at home. The author also addresses the importance of diet, emphasizing the benefits of vegetarianism and providing recipes for wholesome bread, rolls, and other foods. Throughout the text, he refutes the prevailing medical theories of the time, citing the opinions of leading medical figures to bolster his arguments. The book is a powerful testament to the enduring belief that the body possesses an innate ability to heal itself, offering a compelling alternative to the often-harmful practices of traditional medicine in the 19th century. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
