[edit]DescriptionConklin Fasting - NewYorkTimes.png |
This is a copy of a short newspaper story. The title is "FASTING AS EPILEPSY CURE." and the subtitle "Osteopaths Hear That 22 Days on Water Usually End Fits." The body text is LOS ANGELES, July 5.--Epilepsy may be cured by fasting, Dr. Hugh Conklin told the twenty-sixth annual convention of the American Ostepathic Association, now in session here. Epilepsy, according to Dr. Conklin, is caused by the improper functioning of the bowels. By fasting for twenty-two days, taking only water, a cure may be effected, he said. "Many people," added Dr. Conklin, "fast thirty days and are never afflicted by fits again. The longest fast which any patient ever took under my direction lasted sixty days. Out of thirty-seven tests in which children were used as patients, only two still are affected by the disease. The children were all under the age of 11 years, but we effect cures in older patients in from 50 to 60 per cent. of the cases we undertake." |
