NUTRITIVE COMPOSITIONS.
The sixteen substances,—nutritive cell foods,—of which all of the tissues of the body are composed are: carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, potassium, soda, lime, magnesia, iron, manganese, phosphor, sulphur, silica, chlorine, fluorine and iodine.
My nutritive compositions consist of these same sixteen nutritive salts, each composition mixed in the same proportion as they are found in the healthy tissue for the regeneration of which they are prescribed.
Since in various diseases not only one but several tissues are affected, it must be decided individually in each case whether only one, or several, of the nutritive compositions will require to be taken, and in what proportion.
In accordance with the system of the twelve tissues of the body, the twelve nutritive compositions, commonly known as "DECH-MANNA" Compositions, are the following:
| No. 1. Plasmogen | Bloodplasma-Producer. | |
| No. 2. Lymphogen | Lymph-Cell-Producer. | |
| No. 3. Neurogen | Nerve-cell-Producer. | |
| No. 4. Osseogen | Bone-cell-Producer. | |
| No. 5. Muscogen | Muscle-cell-Producer. | |
| No. 6. Mucogen | Mucous membrane-cell-Producer. | |
| No. 7. Dento-Ophthogen | Tooth and Eye-cell-Producer. | |
| No. 8. Capillogen | Hair-cell-Producer. | |
| No. 9. Dermogen | Skin-cell-Producer. | |
| No. 10. Gelatinogen | Gelatigenous-cell-Producer. | |
| No. 11. Cartilogen | Cartilage-cell-Producer. | |
| No. 12. Eubiogen | Healthy body-cell-Producer. |
In addition to these I use only a few specialities in certain cases of disease, viz.:
| A. Oxygenator | A radium emanation for the bath. | |
| B. Eubiogen Liquid | Same as No. 12, but liquid form. | |
| C. Tonogen | A stimulating tonic. | |
| D. Tea. Diabetic, Dechmann | ||
| E. Tea. Laxagen, after Kneipp | ||
| F. Salve. Lenicet, after Dr. Reiss | ||
| G. Massage Emulsion, Dechmann | ||
| H. Propionic acid for steam atomizer | ||
| I. Oxygen Powder, after Hensel | ||
| J. Anti-Phosphate, Dechmann | ||
