This website discusses two electrical devises that Edgar Cayce recommended and gave the specifications for building them, since they hadn't been invented. The author used the devices successfully to overcome MS. Since MS and CFS are related, the information about the devices- how to use, build, and where to buy them - may be useful - This information plus dietary recommendations are all in the on-line book!
"Edgar Cayce was born ... in 1877. ... At the age of twenty-one, Edgar Cayce developed the amazing ability to enter a self-induced hypnotic trance in which he could diagnose illnesses and prescribe treatments for those illnesses which, though usually unorthodox, were often amazingly effective....
"Included in those ills were numerous health problems for which the readings recommended the "vibratory" administration of various substances using either the radial appliance or the wet cell battery....
"Unlike the light bulb and the phonograph, the appliances were not "invented." Rather, they were given--as a gift of grace to the world--through a sleeping photographer--by some "source" that apparently has great wisdom, great compassion, and great love for a suffering and afflicted humanity....
"The radial appliance (also referred to as the radio-active appliance, the impedance device, and the dry cell) was recommended in over 900 readings in the treatment of such conditions as autism, baldness, chronic fatigue syndrome, coronary heart disease, dysmenorrhea, prostatitis, sinusitis, hypertension, migraine, and obesity....
"Just as there are many types of muscular dystrophy, the readings recognized many types of multiple sclerosis. In one case, a deficiency of iron was seen as the precipitating factor. (Today, iron deficiency is an acknowledged cause of one particular type of MS.) A deficiency of calcium was seen as the culprit in another case. However, as a general rule, the readings cited a deficiency of GOLD in the body as the stimulus which most frequently initiates the cascade of events that lead to multiple sclerosis.
"To correct the gold deficiency, the readings usually recommended instilling gold into the body vibratorially via the wet cell battery. The body responds to gold in its vibratory state by increasing assimilation of that and perhaps other nutrients. Also frequently recommended were a low fat, alkaline reacting diet, keeping a positive attitude, maintaining a high spiritual ideal, and massage therapy after every session on the appliance (aimed primarily at distributing the instilled energies and stimulating and energizing nerve function)....
"Bile is a greenish, highly alkaline liquid produced by the liver. It is stored in the gall bladder and released into the intestinal tract to help not only digest fats, but also neutralize the highly acidic products of gastric digestion. When the liver is not functioning at peak efficiency (as the readings suggest is often the case in MS), the quantity or quality of bile becomes insufficient to properly convert fats into fatty acids and adequately neutralize the contents of the intestinal tract. Therefore, to maintain both a proper acid/base balance and promote effective fat utilization, it is particularly important for MS sufferers to avoid acid reacting foodstuffs and to include digestive enzymes in their diet....
"Many readings stress the importance of prayer (talking to God) as an adjunct to the healing process, and numerous scientific studies bear out the wisdom of that advice....
"Due to its complex, multifaceted nature, multiple sclerosis may be helped by almost anything that stimulates the body's natural recuperative powers, that fosters physiological balance, that removes toxins, that improves circulation, that unimpedes nerve flow, and, in particular, that improves digestion and assimilation (because, in most cases, MS is basically a nutritional problem--the right nutrients not getting to the right place at the right time in the right format or in the right amount).
"(A-18) Adhering to the dietary advice in Chapter 3 and eating foods high in gold (shellfish, carrots, and salsify (oyster plant)).
"(A-20) I believe it is because women are more susceptible to glandular disturbances, are more prone to develop vertebral subluxations (due to greater joint laxity), and are more likely to be nutritionally compromised (due to relatively poorer diet, monthly iron loss, and the nutritional demands of pregnancy).
"(Q-21) Why is muscle pain a symptom in some cases of multiple sclerosis?
"(A-21) The readings suggest that it is related to the attempt on the part of muscle tissue to "wrest," so to speak, necessary nutrients from the surrounding circulation."
