The first text is an article Publisher by the British Journal of Homeopathy, in October of 1924, about the intestinal intoxication in relation to cancer. It relates the intestinal intoxication with bad feeding, which results in toxins’ accumulation and organism poisoning.
 
It denounces a senseless feeding whose nauseous strike infects the mornings of the carefree beings entering through their mouths. Vitamins and sugar scarce, while an excess of animal protein is consumed, provoking that the intestine becomes alkaline making it an ideal place for bacteria, some of them properly pathogen and others that provoke disturbances at the long-term, damaging the immune system.
 
Instead, Bach defends a feeding system that avoids the rotting processes, a system almost vegetarian, that helps to clean the intestine. Curiously, he insists in the role of vaccination, without précising which vaccine, or revealing its name or composition. He goes to the five-step relation, denoting that this is not about miracles.
 
The description of the cases is scarce without any clinical detail: the patient is very sick (sometimes with cancer), and he is on medication, then the first dose is administrated (the first dose of what? No one knows) and suddenly he gets better; then some others die, and others improve.
 
Bach affirms, even without the slightest clinical statistics, that the general health state is related to the bacteria content of the intestine. He keeps coming to the mysterious vaccines, which help cleaning the intestine. He finally explains the secretive process: a dilution of the patient’s feces culture.
 
He ends the conference with a vibrant tribute to some Hahnemann, a prophet of the intestinal intoxication. There are no more than two lines about the chronic diseases. In a way of conclusion, he once again rages against the anti-nature feeding that provokes constipation and toxins’ accumulation in the intestine. He formulates hopes about a future where the intestine cleaning becomes a simple way to avoid cancer.
 
The fourth text is about the mystical dimension of this healing philosophy, turning away from the science to handle religious (our Creator) and frankly divinatory (like being lucky) arguments. He develops an astounding definition, very Jewish –Christian, of the sickness, that turn all the disease in guilty at the contraire of the healthy, which do good. The craziness of this philosophy comes clear with “It’d be better to lose a body than to let the lesson pass”.
 
Then it goes to an original classification of the plants, according to its respective powers: the orchid is in the lowest level (when it is in the highest scale of vegetal evolution). Then he gifts us with another classification of trivial psychological types, affirming that is important to relate the patients to that classification to determine which sickness they suffer. At the end, through the two classifications he’ll have a cure.
 
The seventh text, ironically called free yourself, it is very clear, it’s impossible to express this kind of truth with words. And the sickness takes a new meaning: it’s no longer wrong thought but the interference of the others in our thoughts but since we all are divine and undefeatable, the difficulties evaporate as if by magic. The health is in this holy self, so our new definition of disease, it is what happens when we refuse to believe in this holy self, that allows all the impulses, since it’s divine. The more obstacles that this holy self finds, the closer to the truth it will be (Reader note: what deifens all the extremists).
 
The topics follow and look alike; until it shares the twelve names of the medical plants that help you contact the holy self. It in unknown how these plants are used or if they follow the silliness of the dilution. Once again, he explains thoroughly his psycho-vegetal classification and its applications and “qualities”, as the home way to produce them.         
 
The following texts are reproductions of the precedents and do not have more interest than those; it is the same pseudo-scientific mix of very general truths and outrageous classifications, with moralizing conclusions. It continues until dizziness, more delirious lists of remedies and its fabrication method (they are done through cognac). To top it all, a delicate tale presents in an original but not scientific way, the nineteen chosen vegetables, another conference brings more plants to the basket and we have 38 basic remedies. Even if it is based in the medicine of the plants, in reality he doesn’t use it since his preparations contain only innocuous dilutions. 
 
The power of this disdainful text it is in the last text, a conference given to a mason assemble, with a content that doesn’t change but that concretes the authentically divine role of the healer. Regarding to a literary genre it is clearly a swindle, it pretends to be scientific when it does not even presents the slightest investigation requirements.
