VI. DEGENERATION OF THE MUCOUS MEMBRANE TISSUE.
Catarrh in acute and chronic forms, bronchitis, pleurisy, pneumonia, inflammation of nose, throat, bowels, stomach, bladder.
Decomposition of mucous membrane, hemorrhoids, polyps, benign tumors, also Bright's disease in initial stages.
Catarrhal disease is amongst the most common, in varied form and degree, owing to the very tender nature of the mucous membrane.
These ailments are characterized as destructions of the protective membranes which cover the serous layer of the organs, in which layer the lymph circulates.
The numerous ends of blood-vessels and nerves which are thus exposed to attack, and the spreading of the disease to healthy tissues which thus become affected in the same way, make the various catarrhal troubles with their accompanying excretions particularly unpleasant.
All degenerations of the mucous membrane are based on deficiencies in blood circulation and composition.
A cure is effected through the restoration of the serous layer to normal conditions and the regeneration of the blood and its circulation.
