THE
CAUSE
of most all diseases is due to mis-
aligned vertebrae producing pres-
sure on nerve trunks where they
branch off from the spine. This
prevents them from carrying the
full amount of life force from the
brain and the parts of the body
supplied by the pinched nerves are
bound to be weakened and di-
seased.
