body acts on the principle Of the galvanic battery.
The brain, mucous and serous membranes, the skin,
tissues and fluids constitute the negative and positive
forces. Every action, whether mental physical, is
the result Of these antae onstic forces Digestion,
respiration, circulation secretion and excretlon are
due solely to Electrical influence, There ia polar
action established throughout the system which
connects With every of the body establishing and
preserving pre- balance of the electrical element
which constitutes health and disturbance of which
disease There strictly but TWO conditions OF
disease-One Of inflammation or positive; the other
weak debtated negatives and Electricity contains
these two conditions in the action of the positive and
negative currents all have 10 do is to neutraize
the disease and restore proper healthy action
