Disease is a remedial effort a process of pu-\\nrification and reparation; an effort to restore the\\nbalance between the two great forces of the system\\nthe nervous and the muscular forces.\\n4. Truly remedial agents are materials and in-\\nfluences which have normal relation to the vital or-\\ngans, and not drugs and poisons, which are abnor-\\nmal and anti-vital.\\n5. The True Healing Art consists in supplying\\nthe system with whatever of Nature s Materia\\nMedica it can use under the circumstances, and not\\nin the administration of poisons which it must re-\\nsist and expel.\\n6. Drug remedies are themselves causes of dis-\\nease if they cure one disease, it is by producing, a\\ndrug disease.\\n7.
