Handbook of Nature Cure Volume One: Nature Cure vs. Medical Science | by John L. Fielder- Dr Fielder eschews the use of all forms of medication whether they be
so-called 'natural' or otherwise, including supplementation. He
believes solely in the self-reparative nature of the organism and its
ability to heal itself given the necessary care, attention and
environment. The only exception being in the case of major trauma
where reparative surgery is necessary.
- Impaired Health: Its Cause And Cure | Volume 1 | by John H. Tilden
- All disease, according to Tilden, is due to toxemia. Herein are cures for all the popular diseases that afflict humanity.
- Impaired Health: Its Cause And Cure | Volume 2 | by John H. Tilden
- People are beginning to understand that their discomforts come from
morbidities, both mental and physical
- The Hygienic System: Orthotrophy | Herbert M. Shelton
- Unnatural food is the principal cause of human degeneration. It is the oldest vice. If we reflect upon the number of ruinous dietetic abuses, and their immemorial tyranny over the larger part of the human race, we are tempted to eschew all symbolic interpretations of the paradise legend and ascribe the fall of man literally and exclusively to the eating of forbidden food. From century to century this same cause has multiplied the sum of our earthly ills. -- Felix L. Oswald
- The Hygienic System: Fasting And Sun Bathing | by Herbert M. Shelton
- In presenting this volume on fasting I am well aware of existing prejudices against the procedure. It has long been the practice to feed the sick and to stuff the weak on the theory that "the sick must eat to keep up their strength." It is very unpleasant to many to see long established customs broken, and long cherished prejudices set at naught, even when a great good is to be achieved. In this volume we offer you real wisdom and true science--we offer you the accumulated wisdom of many thousands of years, wisdom that will still be good when the mass of weakening, poisoning and mischief-inflicting methods of regular medicine are forgotten. A brief history of fasting will help to prove the truth of this.
- The Hygienic System: Orthopathy | by Herbert M. Shelton
- To all who believe in the omniscience of phenomena--that action and reaction are inherent--a part of an object and its environment-- and that the two forces are equal--that compensation is ever and forever in the balance of necessity"; that the law of adjustment is always immanent, and demand and supply are ever-present; that "the cause of any and every need of a living entity is at the same time the cause of the satisfaction of that need"; that every noxious influence "acting" on the human body is extinguished eo ipso; that the noxious agent itself occasions the creation of the protective device which renders it innocuous; that the movements of the living organism, in "disease" as in health, are always teleological, always lawful, and always in the highest interest of Life; that the disposition of the forces of Life may safely be left to the eternal and immutable laws of Life; this book is dedicated
- Natural Hygiene: Man's Pristine Way Of Life | by Herbert M. Shelton
- We are not Reformers; we are Revolutionists. Medical reform--the world has had quite enough of that. Reforming the drug system by substituting one set of drugs for another is a ridiculous farce. It may, to be sure, substitute a lesser for a greater evil, in many cases, but is like reforming big lies with little falsehoods. It is like reforming swearing with obscene language; or like reforming robbing with cheating. Reforming allopathy with homeopathy and both with physio-medicalism, and all these with eclecticism, is like promoting temperance by substituting cider and lager for rum, brandy, gin, wine, or flesh eating by substituting milk, butter, cheese, for animal food...
- A Guide To Health | by Benjamin Colby
- If the last century is an example to learn from, it will be many frantic years before we "irregulars" bring about the re-ordination of mainstream medicine back into the vitalist center. In that context, as well as for some of its surprisingly sound observations, this popular little book from 150 years ago can serve as a parable for our present perceptions of the early-stages of medical decline. --Michael Moore
- Nature Cure: Philosophy and Practice Based on the Unity of Disease and Cure | by Henry Lindlahr
- There are two principal methods of treating disease. One is the
combative, the other the preventive. The trend of modern medical
research and practice in our great colleges and endowed research
institutes is almost entirely along combative lines, while the
individual, progressive physician learns to work more and more along
preventive lines...
- Fasting, Hydropathy and Exercise | by Bernarr MacFadden
- Nature's wonderful remedies for the cure of all chronic and acute
diseases.
- Scientific Fasting: The Ancient and Modern Key to Health | by Linda Burfield Hazzard
- Dealing with the prevention and relief of disease through
fasting and its accessories
- Health and Survival in the 21st Century | by Ross Horne
- Viewed from space today, Planet Earth looks little different from how
it would have looked a thousand years ago. Oceans and continents
clearly visible in technicolor, veiled in swirling wisps of white
clouds--it makes a pretty picture. Closer inspection, however,
reveals big changes: less forest land, more deserts, more smoke haze,
more scars. Damage, man-made. But that's only the visible damage...
- Elixirs And Flavoring Extracts. Their History, Formulae, & Methods of Preparation | by John Uri Lloyd
- A classic volume from the 18th century
- Maintaining Health | by Rasmus Larssen Alsaker
- It is natural to be healthy, but we have wandered so far astray
that disease is the rule and good health the exception. Of course,
most people are well enough to attend to their work, but nearly all
are suffering from some ill, mental or physical, acute or chronic,
which deprives them of a part of their power. The average individual
is of less value to himself, to his family and to society than he
could be. His bad habits, of which he is often not aware, have
brought weakness and disease upon him. These conditions prevent him
from doing his best mentally and physically.
- Herb Formulas from the book "Herbs for Health" by Otto Mausert
- A concise treatise on medicinal herbs, their usefulness and correct
combination in the treatment of diseases.
- The Indian Household Medicine Guide | by J. I. Lighthall
- The design of this work is to profit the many thousand persons that
are suffering from chronic diseases. I presume that every man, woman
and child, farmer, mechanic and day laborer, as well as professional
men, have a right to acquire all the knowledge it is in their power to
grasp. This book is calculated for the many that are not able to
obtain the important and essential medical knowledge that is necessary
for the perpetuation of health, longevity, wealth, and happiness, by
purchasing the regular medical text books of our classical colleges,
as well as those who live in the palace and take pleasure in the
barouche and phaeton...
- The Complete Herbalist | by Dr. O. Phelps Brown
- The people their own physicians, describing the nature's remedies;
Great curative properties found in the herbal kingdom. A new and
plain system of hygienic principles, together with comprehensive
essays on sexual philosophy, marriage, divorce, etc.
- A Handbook of Useful Drugs | by State Medical Examining and Licensing Boards
- It is generally recognized that a considerable proportion of the
articles in the Pharmacopeia of the United States and in the National
Formulary are worthless or superfluous. Repeated efforts have been
made to eliminate at least the more objectionable of these
articles. These efforts, however, have failed because they have
uniformly encountered the objection that the articles or preparations
are used by some physicians and therefore should be recognized and
authoritatively defined. The Council on Medical Education and the Confederation of State
Examining and Licensing Boards have been trying to restrict
instruction and examination in materia medica to the more important
drugs. These efforts have suggested the desirability of selecting a
fundamental list of drugs with which all medical students and
practitioners might be expected to be familiar and to which,
therefore, state examining and licensing boards might largely or
entirely confine their examinations in materia medica.
- A Practitioner's Handbook Of Materia Medica And Therapeutics | by Thos. S. Blair
- Based upon established physiological actions and the indications in small doses to which is added some pharmaceutical data and the most important therapeutic developments of sectarian medicine as explained along rational lines
- A Practical Treatise On Materia Medica And Therapeutics | by Roberts Bartholow
- A volume on Materia Medica and Therapeutics should, in these days,
present some new features of importance if it would worthily occupy a
place alongside of the excellent works now accessible to American
readers. An examination of this treatise will disclose the fact that
it differs from other works in its scheme of classification, in the
subjects discussed, and in the very practical character of the
information.
- A Manual of Materia Medica and Pharmacology | by David M. R. Culbreth
- Comprising all organic and inorganic drugs which are or have been official in the United States Pharmacopoeia, together with important allied species and useful synthetics, especially designed for students of pharmacy and medicine, as well as for druggists, pharmacists, and physicians.
- Civics and Health | by William H. Allen
- No one can read this volume, or even its chapter-headings, without
surprise and rejoicing: surprise, that the physical basis of effective
citizenship has hitherto been so utterly neglected in America;
rejoicing, that so much in the way of the prevention of incapacity and
unhappiness can be so easily done, and is actually beginning to be
done.
The gratitude of every lover of his country and his kind is due to the
author for his interesting and vivid presentation of the outlines of a
subject fundamental to the health, the happiness, and the well-being
of the people, and hence of the first importance to every American
community, every American citizen.
- Medical Essays | by Oliver Wendell Holmes
- This paper was written in a great heat and with passionate indignation. If I touched it at all I might trim its rhetorical exuberance, but I prefer to leave it all its original strength of expression. I could not, if I had tried, have disguised the feelings with which I regarded the attempt to put out of sight the frightful facts which I brought forward and the necessary conclusions to which they led.
- Household Companion: The Family Doctor
- This book tells how to detect disease and apply the best
remedy for it. It gives practical directions for taking the principal
medicines, how to nurse and care for the sick, what to do in case of
accidents or poisoning, and gives valuable advice on the laws of
health, the prevention of disease, food for the sick, and various
kinds of medical treatment.
- How and When to Be Your Own Doctor | by Dr. Isabelle A. Moser with Steve Solomon
- This book was written to help educate the
general public about the virtues of natural medicine and to
encourage the next generation of natural healers.
- Lessons on Massage | by Margaret D. Palmer
- At the earnest and often-repeated request of my pupils, I publish
my lessons on massage, in the hope that they and others will find them
as useful as they anticipate. The instructions given are founded upon
the results of many years' experience, both in teaching and in
practical work.
- Children: Their Health And Happiness | by J. H. Tilden
- This book is dedicated to those mothers who wish to sidestep the
conventional errors which lead to so much unnecessary sickness in
children.
- The Hygienic Care of Children | by Herbert M. Shelton
- An intelligent man may be wrong sometimes, but a fool is always
right. He is never wrong. The medical profession is never wrong. It
never changes, except superficially.This is the reason it is necessary for me to write this book. There
are many books on the care and feeding of infants, but most of them
consist largely of repetitions of ancient mistakes. There is little in
them that can be recommended to the parent who desires to care for his
or her child in the best manner possible. They are full of statements
which have been known to be false for many years. But the medical
profession is never wrong.
- The Young Mother. Management of Children in Regard to Health | by William A. Alcott
- It is by no means the object of this little work to set people to
watching their stomachs from meal to meal, in regard to the effects of
food, drink, etc. for nothing in the world is better calculated to
make dyspeptics than this. It is true, indeed, that some things may be
obviously and greatly injurious, taken only once; and when they are
so, they should be avoided. But in general, it is the effect of a
habitual use of certain things for a long time together--and the
longer the experiment the better—which we are to observe.
- A Manual Of Psychology | by G. F. Stout
- The present work contains an exposition of Psychology from a
genetic point of view. A glance at the table of contents will show
that the order followed is that of the successive stages of mental
development. The earlier stages have been copiously illustrated by
reference to the mental life of animals. The phases through which the
ideal construction of Self and the world has passed are illustrated by
reference to the mental condition of the lower races of mankind.
