LIFE EXTENSION INSTITUTE COMMENTS AND COUNSEL ON RESULTS OF HEALTH SURVEY HEREIN RECORDED DR March 11th 192 4. Miss Vora Eldridge, Name 255 Hickory Stop Orange, N.J. Address Rating C-D Age 29 My dear Miss Eldridge: Our physical examination showed a number of conditions that require further investigation. We note your persistent loss in weight and this does not appear to be accompanied by any lung conditions or organic disease so far as our examina- tion disclosed. The x-ray of the teeth showed tather definite evidence of mouth infection. Several of your teeth show shadows running through the roots that usually indicate infection. Such teeth are a great menace to health and may cause a long range of serious systemin trouble, and we believe that you should discuss with your dentist and doctor the advisability of having these teeth removed. It is quite possible that they are responsible for your depressed state of health and loss in weight. However, where there has been such persistent loss in weight, and this loss is not due to errors in diet, every precaution should be taken to search for the cause. We would recommend an x-ray examination of the chest, also an examination of the feces OT bowel discharges, in order to ascertain whether there are any parasites present. These examinations could be arranged at the Institute if you desire them,
