We suck the mother's milk when we are babes—and the electric force communicaled through this milk makes us grow daily in health and strength. In fact, we derive the maximum of sustenance from things which are like unto our nature. Hence the mother's milk is besi for babies ; while, as for the milk derived from animals, cow's milk is best—for there is a considerable amount of electric force in cows. In fact, there is a considerable amount of such energy even in the dung and urine of cows; and hence from these also we derive a good deal of benefil. lf men only ale according to the necessilies of their consiilution and the conditions of soil and climale in the midst of which they had been born, such easing would help to mainlain the balance of electric energy in the body—and we would noi have io suffer illness even for a day. Disease indicales ihai lhe vital force (the electric encrgy within the body) has been weakened (through irregularities of diel).
