The text argues that drug physicians fail to help certain cases and that minerals like iron and arsenic are not properly absorbed or safe. It likens the body to an engine needing a working firebox and promotes a remedial method that stimulates the liver, spleen, and blood-making organs to activate nerves and blood supply, yielding richer blood from food.
