CAYCE QUOTE ON REMEDY 1788-8

At least three times each day give a mild camomile [chamomile] tea, to reduce the disturbance in the intestinal tract and especially to settle the stomach. Pour a pint of boiling water over a teaspoonful of the camomile and allow to steep as tea. These would be the proportions. The dosage would be a teaspoonful three times a day - of the tea, you see; made in the manner indicated.
