This section is from the "Impaired Health: Its Cause And Cure" (Volume 2) book, by John H. Tilden. Also available from Amazon: Impaired health its cause and cure: A repudiation of the conventional treatment of disease
A chronic derangement characterized by passing large quantities of urine of low specific gravity. Sometimes the urine will not be heavier than water.
The disease is caused by a nervous derangement. Fear of overworked emotions are the causes in those who are very nervous. It is more common to the young than to the old. Little children at the breast are prone to have this derangement. Mothers should be cautioned to avoid everything of an exciting character.
A low-specific-gravity urine, passed in large quantities, devoid of sugar.
It is said that the treatment is very unsatisfactory. I have not had this experience. I should expect to have trouble of this kind if I should resort to opium or drugs; but, inasmuch as the disease is strictly of a nervous character, I should expect every case to get normal in a very reasonable time, by being deprived of food, and resting in bed. The feet should be kept warm by artificial heat if necessary, and a reasonable amount of water may be given if there is thirst. It is strictly a disease coming under the head of nervous dyspepsia.
