The more we learn, the more evident it is that there is a _Perfect Way_
locked, or, rather, enfolded, in all of Nature's secrets, and that it
is intended that man shall sometime discover them.
Taste, in its normal condition, when allowed to direct or advise,
serves several important functions, not the least of which is as
first-assistant to Appetite. Appetite craves the kind of nourishment
the body needs, invites to eating, gives enjoyment during the whole
time needed for the fluids of the mouth and the stomach to do their
part of the digestive process. Taste ceases when the food is ready for
the stomach and thereafter fails to recognise the indigestible sediment
which remains in the mouth after nutriment has been extracted; and,
in these discriminations, if consulted and obeyed, Taste and Appetite
prevent indigestible matter from entering the system to burden and clog
the lower intestines, form deposits in bone, cartilage and kidneys,
inflame the tissues, and otherwise create conditions favourable to the
propagation of the microbes of disease.
The normal sensitiveness of taste can be recovered, if already lost, in
the course of a week, or two weeks at most, by means of the stimulating
and regenerating influence of natural body-repair, if the method of
taste and appetite cultivation recommended in this book is followed.
Those who now enjoy good health will find a new joy in living when they
have discovered the intelligent use of taste and submit the fuel of
their Mind Power-Plant and strength to the analysis and selection of
Nature's instinctive agents.
