Some Inhibiting Forces Of Man

By O.C. Madu

Some of these inhibiting forces are: hate, fear, anger, jealousy, business worry, quarrels, shocks, evil thoughts and so on. You can not fool the endocrines. You can radiate what you wish the power is within us.


Sickness is but an inhibition of the natural forces of man. Wars brutalize men and stop the normal interplay of the endocrines. The endocrines will do their constructive work when the personality of man gets out of the way. The writer will now show a few specific cases of the action of glands under abnormal conditions.


One of the most pernicious influences upon the glandular system is the excessive use of cigarette, cigar or pipe. The normal action of breathing or inhaling air is to supply the iron of the blood with oxygen. Oxygen is absolutely necessary in all the digestive and reconstructive processes of the body. Scientists claim it is the life-giving force or the substance that is or products of life.


All slow burning fires or incomplete – combustion fires produce carbon monoxide gas, one of the most deadly gases known. One part in eight hundred parts of air will cause death to a person in one-half hour. The exhaust from the automobile sends out large quantity of this gas and in the early years of the use of the automobile in a closed garage.


The slow combustion of the tobacco produces carbon monoxide gas and this is inhaled by the smoker. As this gas has a greater affinity for iron that has oxygen. The oxygen is pushed aside and the carbon monoxide enters the blood in combustion with the iron. This combination has a very deleterious action upon the glands of the system. This is why the boy or girl who smokes excessively rarely has energy (John, 2001). He or she is lazy as a rule, yet nervous and excitable and tacks real driving force.


The special gland affected is the gonad. The oncoming race will posstively be weakened by excessive smoking. Experimentation with animals has proved that animals subjected to smoke, (Simulating the smokes of the human animal as much as possible) will after a certain period of smokes, no longer breed.


The time is coming when men will no longer sit in a smoke laden rooms and inhale and re-inhale time after time smoke that has passed through other nostrils and mouths and think it is the correct thing. Any smoke that is inhaled whether cigar, pipe or cigarette has the same effect.


Alcoholics have a certain activity within the system because of the effect of alcohol on the glands. When a man takes a drink of alcohol, he may feel exhilarated. Why? Because, it is a poison and the one gland that is ever on the alert is the gland of taste and smell, the pituitary, the subconscious brain. It sends out an alarm or hurry call to all the rest of the glands to get to work to expel the invader of the sanctuary.


What is the result when all the glands send out all their forces to strengthen the citadel against the Foe? An exhilaration. The gland and cells of the body, that is, the subconscious, cells, have a greater preserving sense for the man than the man’s thinking consciousness has. If the man took only this one drink maybe, there would be no serious results, but the ignorant fool takes another, for the first seemed to do him good and another and greater call is sent out and so on, drink follows drink until the glands can no longer work fast enough. They become overwhelmed.


The man is overcome by the poison and we say he is drunk. The glands are like faithful dog’s and no matter how they are abused, they will over strive to save the system from serious harm. They even may get so used to the alcohol that they refuse to work until prodded by a drink or two. So with all narcotics and drugs. There are times when drugs and narcotics may bridge over a crisis, but curative medicine must have a food value or stimulation that urges the reconstructive forces of the body, which lie in the glandular system to do their normal work.


Overfeeding and wrong feeding will produce a self poisoning within the digestive tract (autointoxication) that will do about the same to the system as alcohol and narcotics. The beginning of Bright’s Disease usually comes from an abused digestive tract that has to throw off so much poison through the kidneys that the kidneys become diseased and can no longer function.


Research shows that this form of trouble is very common with the businessman. Remember that hate, fear, depressing or fighting emotion stops the peristalsis of the digestive tract (The wave motion) and the food is not carried on and digested as it should be. There is fomentation and putrefaction and the product of this fomentation (autointoxication) is carried through the system and all the glands and tissues suffer.


Friends often write about an inscrutable providence that has carried a brother away. An “outraged providence” would be a better expression. When businessmen learn a little about the wonderful forces within them and maybe a little less about the fleeting money that cannot bring health or happiness unless some simple laws of nature are observed, then we will have more life and still enough money.


Money cannot bring happiness. It can only clear the way for happiness. knowledge and wisdom only can bring real happiness. The peristalsis of the bowels and the constructive regenerating forces within the liver are controlled by the adrenals primarily and any shock or overstrain, physical or mental especially mental or emotional, will stop the actions of the whole chain of forces.


Drinking, smoking and excesses of food are not a good combination to take to a business where a clear head and fine decisions are necessary. The example of the cat under the fluoroscope will illustrate the condition of the business man’s case. Feed a cat a barium meal and put it under the fluoroscope and you can watch the wave motion (peristalsis) of the bowls and as long as the cat is kept purring the peristalsis is not interrupted. But then pull the cats tails or prick her with a pin and get her angry or distressed and the wave motion stops at once and is not resumed until the cat is quite and happy again
