This is plain, as every organ, every nerve in the body is nourished by the blood and the blood 1s replenished from the food digested. It the food is properly digested the blood is pure, the nerves steady, but if supplied from & sour, fermenting, decaying mass the blood is vitiated, poisoned and the result is shown In sleeplessness, lack of energy, poor appetite, nervousness.
