The force of the Kundalini or intestinal canal, being put out to the fundamental artery of the rectum; remains in the vacuity of the spiritual body, like a shadow of the smoke of fire.
In cases of ulceration of the mucous membrane of the intestinal canal, the fibrous element of the blood was increased; while in simple diarrhea, uncomplicated with ulceration, it was either diminished or else remained stationary.
Those who were predisposed intestinal affections were speedily carried off by incurable diarrhea and dysentery.
Throughout the whole length of the intestinal tract are minute masses of lymphoid tissue called solitary glands (see fig.
He also studied the structure of the intestinal villi, in which he verified the observations of Lieberkuhn; and he made many important observations on the corpuscles of the lymph and blood.
In the latter, however, and in higher groups of vertebrates, a peculiar striated border on the columnar cells lining the intestinal tract has been held to be a final trace of ancestral ciliation.
On the Intestinal Tract of Mammals,'' Transactions of the Zool.
In his account of the peritoneum he admits only the intestinal division of that membrane, and is at some pains to prove that Gentilis Fulgineus, who justly admits the muscular division also, is in error.
These are outgrowths of the intestinal tract near the pyloric extremity of the stomach, and their function is partly glandular, partly absorbing.
Treves (Anatomy of theIntestinal Canal, London, 1885) has given the name of the omega loop.
If the sulphate is prescribed in the form of a pill, it may be so coated as only to be soluble in the intestinal digestive fluid.
Iron is certainly absorbed from theintestinal canal.
He has noticed even fish-lice andintestinal worms, both flat and round.
The only comparable fact among other worms is the Laurer's canal or genito-intestinal canal in the Trematoda.
The former, however, is frequently developed only in the anterior region of the body where it emerges from the peri-intestinal blood sinus.
On the other hand, additional longitudinal trunks are sometimes developed, the chief one of which is a supra-intestinal vessel lying below the dorsal vessel and closely adherent to the walls of the oesophagus in which region it appears.
The dorsal vessel also communicates with the ventral vessel indirectly by the intestinal sinus, which gives off branches to both the longitudinal trunks, and by tegementary vessels and capillaries which supply the skin and the nephridia.
The box privy is always a nuisance from many points of view, and is undoubtedly dangerous as a breeder of flies which may carry the germs of intestinal diseases.
Above all, it is important that the anxious solicitude which a great many people have and foster sedulously with regard to the effect of even slight disturbances of intestinal functions should be overcome.
Above all, certain phases of intestinal function have come to occupy too much attention and to be the subject of oversolicitude.
Usually the form of auto-intoxication that is most spoken of is intestinal auto-intoxication, and this combination has for many people a very satisfying polysyllabic length that makes it of special significance.
The result is that to some extent at least, intestinal function would almost seem to have broken down in our day.
The will is needed then for intestinal function to regulate the diet, to increase the quantity of fluid, to secure regular habits and to eliminate worry and anxiety which interferes with intestinal peristalsis.
It is on this roughage or waste material that intestinal movement or peristalsis depends.
This breakdown of intestinal activity is not the fault of nature but of men and women who have been thinking to improve on the natural laws of living.
Intestinal evacuation is very largely a matter of will.
Supra-intestinal visceral ganglion on the course of the right visceral cord.
Sub-intestinal ganglion on the course of the left visceral cord.
The result of such a treatment is that any disease-producing germs that are present in the milk, as well as those which are likely to cause intestinal disturbances, are destroyed, and that the milk is rendered safe as food for a time.
In the Journal de Verdun, 1709, a case is related of two twin female children who were united at the loins, with only one intestinal canal.
In the acephalous twin described by Beclard, no liver, spleen, stomach, or oesophagus could be discovered, and the intestinal tube commenced at the superior extremity of the body.
It may then be employed as a substitute for medicine, a protracted and frequent use of which (even of the mildest aperients) is apt to injure the digestive functions, and to give rise to some degree of intestinal irritation.
I can say more: you have saved my life, for your method of autosuggestion has done alone what all the medicines and treatments ordered for the terrible intestinal obstruction from which I suffered for 19 days, had failed to do.
Your liver then functions in a more and more normal way, the bile it secretes is alcaline and no longer acid, in the right quantity and quality, so that it passes naturally into the intestines and helps intestinal digestion.
That was because they often carry the germs in the intestinal tract a long time after recovery and therefore may become a source of infection.
Fish, an intermediate diet for intestinal cases, was sorely missed.
Intestinal congestion can often be relieved, however, by giving the abdomen gentle massage, preferably with a rotary or kneading motion.

The chief complications during the acute stage of the illness are perforation of an ulcer through the bowel, demanding immediate surgical interference, and intestinal bleeding resulting from haemorrhage from an ulcer.
In three fetuses the bacillus was found in the intestinal contents in pure culture; in one fetus it was isolated from the blood.
By the application of this method Nowak has succeeded in isolating the bacillus from the blood and intestinalcontents of a number of fetuses, and from uterine discharge, when other methods failed.
The theory is that duration of life may be prolonged by measures directed against intestinal putrefaction.
The area of the intestinal tract in question is of relatively little importance in digestion, although a considerable amount of absorption may take place from it.
Metschnikoff suggests that they can only penetrate the intestinal wall through wounds or abrasions of the mucous membrane, made by intestinal worms or other parasites.
Laxatives, intestinal antiseptics, and bowel irrigations have almost taken the place of opiates in the treatment of these conditions in modern medicine.
Similarly a cancer of the rectum, invading the liver, will there pile up in the midst of the liver-tissue abortive attempts at building up glands of intestinal mucous membrane.
