Grape juice was suggested in the Cayce material for many reasons. It has a type of sugar in it, apparently, that does not metabolize in such a way that it makes one obese. Thus, we suggest for those patients who want to lose weight that they drink four ounces of a mixture (half-and-half) of grape juice and water prior to each meal. This satisfies the appetite to some extent and may be beneficial for the intestinal tract.
However, when grape juice is carried a bit further in the processing, it becomes wine. One of our patients, who is now in her sixties, tells us a story about wine unlike any that we’ve heard before. As a two-year-old, Lucy could not walk nor stand without assistance. We don’t know exactly what her diagnosis was, but it was potentially permanently disabling and certainly had something to do with a congenital hip deformity. Her mother apparently heard from someone that hot red wine applied to the extremities was what the child needed. She applied hot compresses – hot wine poultices – to her daughter’s legs, thighs and hips every day for a year. I checked her legs recently and they are as straight and solid as any I’ve seen. Her mother used what was at hand, and healing followed.
