Prologue

Boericke

Vial containing alcohol exposed to X-Ray

Repeated exposure to Roentgen (X-ray) has produced skin lesions often followed by cancer.
Distressing pain.
Sexual glands are particularly affected.
Atrophy of ovaries and testicles.
Sterility.
Changes take place in the blood lymphatics and bone marrow.
Anaemia and leukaemia.
Corresponds to stubbornness as in burns, they refuse to heal.
Psoriasis.

Has the property of stimulating cellular metabolism.
Arouses the reactive vitality, mentally and physically.
Brings to the surface suppressed symptoms, especially sycotic and those due to mixed infections.
Its homeopathic action is thus centrifugal, towards the periphery.
