THE EFFECTS OF ADEQUATE RESPIRATION IN SPECIAL CASES.

When the nutrition of the body is promoted by effective respiration,
and waste matters are promptly removed, the chances that tubercle will
be developed in persons who are predisposed thereto are reduced to a
minimum.

Better materials are furnished by the nutritive processes to renew the
tissues, so that the occurrence of those degenerations that result in
various fatal affections, peculiar to the decline of life, are
rendered much less probable or are prevented altogether, and the
chances that death shall take place by old age is increased. The
system possesses much greater resisting power against the influence of
malaria and the poisons that give rise to typhoid fever, scarlatina,
diphtheria, measles, etc.

When the motions of a woman's respiratory organs are normal and are
properly communicated to the pelvic organs, she enjoys the greatest
possible immunity attainable against the development of any diseases
peculiar to the sex.
