CAYCE QUOTE ON FORMULA 369-12
(Q) Is the Simmons Laxative which I took, the same as Simmons
Liver Regulator recommended in reading [369-11 on 8/4/34]?
(A) Not exactly the same; this was made to take the place of
the Liver Regulator and to meet some requirements that were necessary.
Where this is given for anyone, the better preparation would be to make
it out of the Ragweed, which is the basis of same - either the green (but
dry same) or the dry, which may be preserved or bought in bulk, and made
in the form of a tea - in this manner (this isn't for this body in the
present - may be necessary later; but we have given those things necessary
for this particular body in the present), and in this proportion:
To 8 ounces distilled water add 3 drams dried Ragweed.
Reduce to 6 ounces, or reduce to the quantity then it is necessary to add
even more water to make 6 ounces. Then add a preservative, which
would be 1 ounce of grain alcohol.
And you have better than Simmons Liver Regulator
for activity on the liver! This for anyone! This is the BEST
of the vegetable compounds for activities of the liver. Of course,
if made commercially we would add some few other things to it. [See
562-1 on 5/29/34.] [5/11/39 See 1880-1 not recommending Simmons,
but Ragweed. See also 1880-1 Reports in re Simmons and Ragweed or
Ambrosia. Some years later the Simmons Liver Regulator went off the
market, but not during Edgar Cayce's lifetime.]
