we may create more pain and suffering instead of eliminating it.

As Nature _demands_ that we reproduce ourselves or be punished for
disobeying her laws, what is to be done?

Study and follow the advice given in this book, and you will awake to
the fact that Nietsche's words were not "Utopian" when he commanded us
to "reproduce something better than we are."

Together with the predisposition to disease, the child also acquires the
hereditary tendency to regeneration; and thus rational hygienic-dietetic
treatment may be able to eliminate the diseases which were formerly
pronounced incurable. This can only be effected by the effort to remove
the cause and strengthen the weak points by means of Regeneration.

The reader will now plainly understand that in order to heal, according
to the hygienic-dietetic system, the blood must be supplied with the
chemical elements that are missing from the tissues.

There are three ways of accomplishing this; namely, by diet, by
nutritive preparations, and by physical treatment.

The first and most natural way is by means of proper diet.

Since the chemical elements are introduced into the body through the
food, the quantity and quality of the food must be regulated. The
patient must receive food that will help in regenerating his blood;
particularly such food as contains the elements that are lacking in the
affected tissues in his body.
