As a great many of my readers may know, and some of them to their sorrow,
all so-called hair restorers on the market are failures--although
perhaps not so to the manufacturer or clever salesman.
My composition will prevent the hair tissues from degeneration. Thus
baldness, which might otherwise have occurred in a larger or smaller
degree, may be prevented.
In the case of the disability of the skin to retain the hair, which may
occur after forms of febrile disease, such as typhoid fever, or if
children show little promise of growing nice hair, the composition will
prove very useful in combination with Dech-Manna Composition No. XII,
Eubiogen, which restores the original strength of the whole body, while
hair regenerated by the blood through capillogen has a better chance of
growing and remaining in the regenerated soil.
(d). _Dose_: One gram or one-fourth of a heaping teaspoonful, or one
tablet in a little water or milk, once a day. It is imperative to follow
directions implicitly.
DECH-MANNA COMPOSITION No. IX.
DERMOGEN (SKIN CELL PRODUCER).
(a). The skin, like all other tissues of the body, is made up of
different constituent elements. While its disease appears on the
outside, it is built up, like all other parts of the human organism,
from within and through the blood only. The elements necessary for
regenerating the skin and keeping it in a healthy condition must,
therefore, also be supplied to the body from within, in the form of
nutriment, as otherwise, though we might suppress and eliminate the
symptoms, the disease would still remain.
(b). Dermogen, skin producer, contains all the constituent elements
which a healthy skin tissue requires.
(c). The skin, being exposed to all external influences, discloses the
symptoms of all forms of skin disease, the names of which are legion.
The skin specialist termed "dermatologist" is another production which
flourishes--more or less--upon the ignorance of the public. The patient,
alas, is less fortunate. He tries one after another until disgusted he
sometimes resorts to special diet. Sometimes this may help, if he choose
a certain kind of vegetable diet, and especially if the vegetables are
such as contain a great deal of silica; for silica is the mineral basis
of skin tissue. Full details of this are to be found in my analysis of
foodstuffs given in the chart at the end of volume No. I of my work,
"Regeneration."
(d). _Dose_: One gram or one-fourth of a heaping teaspoonful of
dermogen in a little water or milk once a day until regeneration of the
skin is fairly started. Reduce the dose gradually until complete
recovery has been accomplished.
DECH-MANNA COMPOSITION No. X.
GELATINOGEN (GELATIGENOUS TISSUE PRODUCER).
(a). All blood and lymphatic vessels, the alveoli of the lungs, all
tendons and cords in the entire system, the bowel tract, including the
stomach, the bladder, and in fact every organ or tissue which has the
function of expanding and contracting, must be of healthy gelatigenous
(rubber-like) tissue; otherwise it cannot perform its functions in the
system and must degenerate.
(b). Gelatinogen contains the constituent elements of gelatine, which it
carries, through the blood, to the parts of the body where it is needed
to rebuild degenerated gelatigenous tissue.
(c). While there are not many special forms of disease of the
gelatigenous tissues, many diseased conditions are more or less
connected with its degeneration. In fact, every layman should be able
to judge the importance of perfect gelatigenous tissue. But how many
human beings ever think of such things. Yet they know very well that a
poor rubber tire on an automobile will not last very long or stand much
strain; for the fact appeals to the pocket book--and that degenerates.
It is well to learn the truth before too late and give, to the rising
generation at least, the chance to which they are surely entitled:--A
good healthy body.
(d). _Dose_: Twice daily, 1 gram or one-fourth of a heaping teaspoonful,
or one tablet, at 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., or as individually prescribed, in
a little water, milk or other foodstuffs, to be taken for a certain
length of time.
DECH-MANNA COMPOSITION No. XI
CARTILOGEN (CARTILAGE PRODUCER).
(a). Every bone in the human system must be covered with cartilage at
its ends so as to prevent self-destruction through friction, especially
in the joints.
(b). Cartilogen consists of all the necessary constituents of this
important material, and under certain circumstances it must be
introduced in this concentrated form, as for instance when the general
diet is unable to counteract the influences of disease which tends to
degenerate the cartilage and subjects the body to the great suffering
which the absence of cartilage invariably produces.
(c). Cartilage keeps all the joints in working order and must be
regenerated constantly.
As soon as the blood and lymph no longer contain the proper, necessary
constituents for the rebuilding of cartilage tissue, the consequence is
degeneration of this tissue.
It is obvious then that the presence of proper cartilage constituents in
the blood is of the greatest importance to the regenerating forces in
the human body. Our foodstuffs, therefore, must contain the material in
a digestible, assimilable form, thus to prevent inanition of the cells,
otherwise degeneration of the cartilage tissue must follow.
(d). _Dose_: One gram or one-fourth of a heaping teaspoonful twice a day
for a certain period, depending on the condition of the patient. This
may be taken in the same manner as previously described.
DECH-MANNA COMPOSITION No. XII.
EUBIOGEN (HEALTHY LIFE PRODUCER). (ALSO TERMED "POSITIVE COMPOSITION").
(a). While all other compositions contain _special_ elements for the
rebuilding of _special_ tissues through regeneration of _special_ cells,
Eubiogen contains a combination of all the important elements in the
most concentrated form. I was fortunate enough, after years of
experimenting with plants and animal life, to concentrate the solid
constituents of the human body _ten_ fold. The full import of this
achievement few can realize, but those who know what it means in time
and study. The effect of this composition is felt simultaneously in all
the vital tissues of the body, and since the co-operation of all these
tissues is what we call "life," I feel there is no name more fitting for
this product than the one I have selected, namely, "Eubiogen," or
"Healthy Life Producer." I maintain that it is the most scientific
composition discovered since the time of Hippocrates and the following
is its analysis:
It has at all times been an ideal aim of mankind to produce a species of
food that would combine a minimum of quantity with a maximum of quality,
and philosophers and scientists have dreamed of a time when the day's
portion of foodstuffs would be concentrated in one small pill. The
biologist cannot accept this theory.
While Greek mythology seemed to symbolize a similar idea; namely, of one
concentrated food-substance combining all nutritive elements, as
represented in their "Ambrosia," the food of the Gods.
Yet the gods and goddesses were permitted to partake of it only at
solemn assemblies when all sat at the table of Zeus and enjoyed their
food and drank its liquid counterpart, termed "nectar."
This symbolism represented Ambrosia and Nectar as the highest climax of
food; just as the Greek gods stood for the climax of various human
qualities, in each case attributed to one single personality.
The Greeks knew well that the human body requires a variety of food in
order to remain healthy. It is an echo of the same thought expressed in
the Bible when the Jews are given the "Manna" only in the utmost
emergency. The Bible also advocates a considerable variety of food,
regarding which the Old Testament lays down the most careful and
explicit regulations.
In praising "Ambrosia" as the climax of food-substances, Greek mythology
attributed to it the power not only of regeneration, but of procreation.
For the reproduction of healthy human life in its offspring, was to them
just as sacred and important a preoccupation as it was natural, to
ensure the survival of the race; and to secure to all the food that
would assist in this, their highest and most worthy aim, seemed to them
a manifest duty which, at the present day, prudish "morality" either
practically ignores or modestly pretends to neglect. Healthy food,
generally speaking, will do much towards ensuring healthy offspring.
But the times of extreme leisure, as enjoyed by the ancient Greeks, are
long past and a more exacting age makes its more strenuous demands upon
the human tissues, and in innumerable cases causes them to deteriorate
more rapidly than they can be regenerated and restored to their original
vigor by even the healthiest food.
Hence I have felt justified, in considering the best interests of the
race--present and future--in devoting the crowning effort of my long
scientific career to the production of modern biological remedies such
as would be felt in the reproductive powers of the people--a
consideration concerning which the old-time, prudish reticence is a
foolish figment rapidly passing away.
Now, as regards myself and my great work. Surely to boast a little is
but human. The man who puts his very best efforts into an ideal, and
having achieved it, has not striven to reap the fruits thereof for
selfish gain, but year by year, has perfected that work until the tests
have finally permitted him to cry: "Eureka"--it is accomplished beyond
dispute,--that man has the right to overstep the conventional rule which
forbids self-praise. While in other work accomplished I see but the
links of an uncompleted chain, the synthesis of Eubiogen, I feel to be
one of those so rare occasions in human life, when a tested
accomplishment allows and even demands a somewhat different treatment.
And so I have the courage to speak as follows in eulogy of my own
production:
This product is my masterpiece. I am proud of it. Nothing like it in
efficiency has ever before been given to the world. In the fullest sense
of the word, it is in food value the most perfect concentration that
science and research have ever evolved. It is the result of the quest of
30 years and should make its finder famous. Hundreds of men of mark have
each one given to mankind some noble token of their genius; but of such
gifts not one possessed the concentrated virtues, the materialized
knowledge of "Eubiogen." This, to unsympathetic ears, may sound like
vain, exaggerated vapouring;--but it is not so. _It is the truth_. It is
impossible to describe the real value of its properties within a limited
space. Sufferers in their thousands will yet live to be grateful for the
benefits derived from it, and the full and positive knowledge of its
excellence makes it the more difficult to describe in a few weak words.
An abler pen than mine would fail to do it justice.
In sentimental somnolence I sometimes dream how, perhaps, in the days
to come, another hand may write in glowing terms the faithful history of
"Eubiogen" and say kind feeling words and fair of the hard worked lone
scientist who gave its healing virtues to mankind, terming it--he too
perhaps--the stereotyped "Ambrosia," the diet of the Olympian gods; but
for myself, it is all I ask to know that it has served the appointed end
to which my energy has aimed,--that it has proved a food instinct with
healing and comfort to my kind--a staunch support and refuge for the
overwrought sinews of humanity. May such be my guerdon of reward for the
long years of thought and toil and--I shall rest content.
(b). Eubiogen contains the best and purest ingredients science and
experience can produce today. It is the most delicate and at the same
time the most digestible and assimilable cell-food obtainable.
Many great names since the time of Hippocrates have figured in the list
of those who shared with me the ambitious hope to give mankind some
wonder-working remedy--Metschnikoff, Voit, Koenig, Biedert, Rubner,
Gruber, Kussmaul, Bischoff, Teschemacher, Hirschfeld, Boemer, Wintgen,
Virchow, Hammarsten, Gilbert, Fournier, Heim, Lahmann, von Noorden,
Epstein, Wair Mitchel, Salkowski, Kornauth and the rest, but not one of
them ever dreamed of a perfect regenerator of the cells of the human
body such as this composition, Eubiogen, affords.
The analysis of my product, shows that it is practically impossible to
improve upon in life-giving, cell-generating qualities. This fact should
satisfy the student. Still I will describe the ingredients a little more
minutely, so that all who use it may be convinced that they are doing
the best that can be done, as known to the science of today, to improve
conditions of health for themselves and for their offspring.
As a basis, then, I use for the necessary trituration, the finest
radio-active milk sugar produced, flavored with _pure_ vanilla extract.
The high percentage of albumen contained in it is due to the use of the
most highly perfected hygienic product of albumen known to chemistry. It
is chemically pure and manufactured from eggs, milk and vegetables and,
therefore, absolutely free from microscopical germs, harmful to the
human system.
The organic iron contained in it is obtained from the red-coloring
matter of healthy ox blood, called haemin, examined and tested. For the
nerve material, pure lecithin or nerve fat is used, obtained from the
yolks of fresh eggs.
These two products are enormously expensive. All the organic minerals
are in the form of glycerophosphates, and the milk sugar necessary for
making a perfect trituration is radio-active, as explained before.
To make the whole product as digestible and assimilable as possible, I
use the best material known, that is, Taka and Malt diastase. It is made
palatable through the use of genuine van Houten's cocoa in chocolate
form. It will remain in good condition an unlimited length of time when
kept in a dry, cool place. No drugs of any kind are used. This I
guarantee in the fullest sense of the word. The manufacturer is a
renowned chemist of the highest type, and all the products are of the
highest quality obtainable. This is capable of verification by any
really capable authority on the chemistry of food.
In order to bring this product within the reach of all classes, the same
has been compounded in three different forms:
Form aaa. contains radio-activity, haemin, lecithin, glycerophosphates
and all other constituents of the highest purity.
Form aa. contains haemin, lecithin, glycerophosphates and all other
constituents of the highest purity.
Form a. contains haemoglobin, glycerophosphates and all other
constituents (chemically pure.)
For the use of babies and very feeble invalids, special composition B
(see appendix) may take the place of Eubiogen, since it contains nearly
all of its constituent elements in a form that can be assimilated by
either. It will regenerate the invalid as fast as his condition will
allow, and is the salvation of weak children.
(c). As to when Eubiogen should be administered, the rule is simple.
Whenever any of the Dech-Manna Compositions are given, Eubiogen should
be given in smaller or larger doses, as the case may require,
remembering that its most important task is to rebuild and regenerate
the body so that it may readily perform its fullest functions and
transmit the power unimpared to posterity.
(d). _Dose_: The dose may vary considerably, from 1 to 3 times a day.
Generally a dose consists of 1 gram or one-fourth of a heaping
teaspoonful.
The composition may be combined with any kind of food, or may be given
in separate form with chocolate in equal parts.
There are endless ways in which my remedies may be administered, since
they are merely concentrated cell-food.
_It must be definitely understood at the outset that these remedies must
be absolutely and entirely dissociated with the idea of so-called
"medicine,"_ prescribed by the old-school doctor, which has nothing
whatsoever in common with my "remedies," since these contain the real
constituents of our body-cells and _not_ poisonous chemical concoctions,
known as medicines, which _may_ in some cases suppress symptoms, _but
never will and never can remove the constitutional cause or condition of
disease_.
