Chapter II
Nature of Disease
As I explained in the previous chapter the numerous causes of disease are comprised in one great cause-violation of the Laws of Life. As a result of these violations certain pathological changes take place in the living organism which bring about:
1) Enervation: a state of low vitality, resulting in defective elimination of waste products.
2) Retention of foreign matter.
3) Abnormal composition of blood and lymph.
4) Degeneration-pathological changes in the tissues and organs of the body.
The pathological changes in the tissues of the body form organic lesions of more or less permanent nature, while the retention of waste products form deposits of foreign matter which obstruct the circulation of blood and lymph and interfere with the normal inflow of Vital Force into and thru the organism. The result is weakness, irritation, nervousness, congestion, aches and pains- disease, brought about by
1) Violations of the Laws of Life.
2) Deposits of waste products and foreign matter.
3) Degeneration of the tissues and organs of the body.
