Book Description

Excerpt from The North American Journal of Homoeopathy, 1867, Vol. 15 Not the least important item in the treatment of aphthous ulceration of the cervix is to order a proper diet, with a view to correct the general vitiation. Such a prescription is frs quently sufficient of itself to effect a cure. It should consist of rich, available and highly nutritious articles. Here is great need of the nitrogenous principles. A fatty diet would not be appr0priate. Beef, in the form of steak or broths, oyster soup, and milk are preferable. The vegetable acids are also necessary to correct the strumous cachexia. Baked apples, grapes, oranges, lemonade are almost always grateful, and I believe always useful in such cases. I have witnessed good effects from coffee, tea and alcohol, given with a view to arrest a too rapid metamorphosis and loss of tissue.
