R.T Trall,M.D. & The True Healing Art
This book is fascinating!
I am posting my collection of posts (so far) because I feel this book offers some valuable insight into the world of health and the origins of the medical system at large today. This is my collection of posts that I’ve been posting to my socials regularly. You can read each numbered, quoted post with my own thoughts on what R.T. Trall was speaking – posted to the end of each post. This information, although written in the early 1800s, is just as relevant today as it ever was. Enjoy the information!
THE TRUE HEALING ART.

Published in New York in 1880!
I am really interested in reading It and to ensure that I do, I am going to type it out & post it in small sections often, I think it’s going to be up there with Arnold Ehret!! Let’s find out.. I’ll post my thoughts at the end as usual…

INTRODUCTION
MY OBJECT IN GOING TO WASHINGTON
“The soldiers of our camps and hospitals were dying off fast of typhoid fever, pneumonia, measles, dysentery, etc., And quite unnecessarily.
I knew that the application of our system of hygienic medication would save most of their lives. I was well advised that there were surgeons of our school in the army who gave no drug medicines in these diseases, and who lost no patients ; and I was in correspondence with nurses who had attended our school, Who were saving the lives of all the sick soldiers in their hands, by putting aside the drugs and nursing them properly.
The subject of the best or most successful treatment of the diseases of our officers and soldiers in the field being of national importance, it seemed to me that I could present the merits of our school versus the drug school, in high places, so as to be heard by the dignitaries of the land, and through them by the civilized world.
Accordingly I determined, if the thing was within the scope of possibility, to expose the fallacies of drug medication, and explain the truths of the hygienic system, in the place and under the circumstances that would command attention.
I addressed letters to President Lincoln, the secretaries of State, War, the Navy, and the Treasury, giving them references to Members of Congress in Washington and elsewhere, who had been my patients, as to personal character and standing, and assuring them that I would be very glad of an opportunity to Explain, in the Halls of Congress or elsewhere, before the “powers that be”, the Medical Faculty and Bureau, and the learned and scientific men of the nation, a system of the Healing art which, applied to the treatment of the diseases prevailing in the camps and hospitals of our armies, would save thousands of lives of our officers and soldiers”.
MY THOUGHTS:
I am absolutely fascinated and will be reading this book out loud on my YouTube channel starting soon. As I’ve mentioned many times, I’ve uncovered invaluable knowledge from books written in the early 1800-1900’s and I don’t think this book will disappoint … I want to thank you again Milton for mailing this book to me long ago, I greatly appreciate it…
I wonder what this world would look like today if Pharmaceuticals were never created at all?

INTRODUCTION (skipping)
I’ve decided to read the introduction & the entire book (in short 10 -15 minute sections) on my YouTube channel, I’ll begin that project later this week, so please subscribe to my channel if you would like listen to this book instead of reading it…
Otherwise, let’s begin…
“ I am very thankful, Mr. President, for this introduction, and especially for this disclaimer. It is what I am accustomed to, and it makes me feel at home. It assures me that I am indeed “free and independent”, as I desire to be; that I am privileged to select my own theme, and that I can speak on my own responsibility of my own peculiar “isms” or “ologies”, without compromising any association, and without involving any individual, because of my utterances.
And I am very grateful Ladies and Gentlemen, to the members of the Washington Lecture Association, for having prepared the way for free discussion in this place; even for the presentation of the most radical subject that can be named – the ne plus ultra of ultraism; and, moreover, for the first appearance, on this stage, of the most unpopular speaker who could be introduced on this platform;
for I have been so long contending against what I deem to be popular errors, that I am now as unpopular as it is possible to be.
I have nothing more to lose, and am, therefore, thoroughly free, and can afford to be honest, and to keep a conscience, knowing that any change which occurs henceforward must be in the direction of popularity.
When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for the physicians of one School to dissolve the fraternal and philosophic bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the institutions of the earth, the position to which Truth and Nature entitled them, as free thinkers and independent actors, a decent respect for the opinions of mankind, and a conscientious regard for the welfare of the human race, should prompt them to declare the causes which impel them to a separation”.
MY THOUGHTS:
This book is going to get really interesting if you just hang in, he’s just getting started …
I see this all around us today, those of us with nothing to loose speaking out, attempting to warn others of what is taking place all around us, yet our cries fall on def ears – ears that would rather trust in the mainstream narrative – after all, how can the majority be wrong? Why would they lie?
Time reveals all, for those of us who are keeping ourselves healthy – we will bare witness to the re-written events of today…

“ I hold these truths to be self -evident, or, at least, susceptible of positive proof and absolute demonstration:
That the doctrines and theories commonly entertained among men, and taught in medical schools and books, and practiced by the great body of the medical profession, and which constitute the so-called “science of medicine”, and on which the popular practice of the so-called “Healing Art” is predicated, or untrue in philosophy, absurd in science, in opposition to Nature, and indirect conflict with every law of the vital organism;
and that these are the reasons, and the only reasons, why medical science does not progress as do all other sciences;
why success in the healing art bears no due relation to the advancement of all of the collateral sciences, and to the progress of intelligence among mankind; why medical theories are ever changing;
why all of its assumed principles are in controversy; It’s hypothesis in dispute; why it’s fundamental rules and primary premises are wholly overlooked or misunderstood; and why its application to the cure of disease and the preservation of health is so uncertain, so dangerous, often so fatal, and, on the whole, so vastly more injurious than useful to the world”.
To be continued…
MY THOUGHTS:
Between the early 1800’s-now, not much has changed when speaking in terms of censorship / truth & the errors of mainstream medical science…
when germ theory gained a foothold and became the official accepted narrative, it created the very foundation / basis for the use and creation of pharmaceutical drugs, vaxxines, invasive treatments & procedures etc.
People believe that they “catch” disease when in reality,
disease is developed…
Germ theory takes the responsibility for disease development away from the individual & their particular diet / lifestyle choices and places the blame on an outside source – which makes disease issues easier to endure (in a sense) because after all, it’s not really anyone’s fault, it’s just bad luck …
Medical science has not evolved in this regard for hundreds of years because it doesn’t want to, foundations receive endless streams of donated revenue for “cancer research”, doctors have a continual overflow of patients because they can’t help anyone heal disease, most do not understand causation, they have no idea how disease develops, they were taught many untruths in medical school!!
We are living in the dark ages, today more so than ever, we are not enlightened, medical science is remaining stagnant in “germ theory paradigm” and we are ignorant to the facts as a whole …

“ And I claim, on the other hand, to have ascertained the true premises of medical science, which discovery enables me to explain all of its hitherto mysterious problems, even those problems which have ever baffled the investigations of medical men, and which are to this day regarded by the standard authors and living teachers as without the pale of human comprehension, to wit; The Essential Nature of Disease, and the Modus Operandi of Medicines; and thereon to predicate a philosophy and a practice of medicine which is correct in science, in harmony with all the Laws of Nature, in agreement with every structure and function of the living system, and successful when applied to the prevention or cure of disease.
I am about to prove the falsity of the popular medical systems-
-
By facts universally admitted.
-
By the testimony of its advocates.
-
By the testimony of its opponents.
-
By the Laws of Nature.
-
By argument and logic.
-
By all the data of science applicable to the subject.
These are bold, plain, sweeping asseveration, radical, aggressive, revolutionary.
But I mean all that my words import, in their strictest literary and in their broadest implications.
It is for those who hear me to judge for themselves whether I make these allegations good. But I do now and here, as everywhere, most respectfully. Yet most unreservedly, challenge the whole scientific world to meet the issues which I shall present”.
MY THOUGHTS:
When we learn what the root cause of disease is, it’s only logical that once we remove the causes (provided that the individual is not in a degenerative state) the body will heal itself in its own time, depending on your individual internal conditions- yet this is the biggest issue I see going, disease takes time to heal, sometimes a long time & most people are not willing, or able to take that time to be sick for healing to occur.
Doctors are not in the business of healing disease…
I’m not sure why people go to them for anything outside of emergency trauma care.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard SAD/SCD eaters say that they went “plant based”or “Vegan” and then they got sick –
they attribute their “sickness” to the plant based vegan diet & not to the fact that their body is likely purging, and detoxing, which expresses itself as illness (or they just ate a lot of vegan crap – faux meat, cheese, processed food, white rice, etc) … we refer to this as detoxification & it can be tough at times.
People are not willing to adopt a whole new lifestyle , with slow coming results – they just want someone to tell them what to eat, and how long is it going to take.
Those are the individuals who do not find remedy, those are the individuals who refuse to really learn the information for themselves on top of applying it…
We live in a world of quick fixes and fast paced everything – but just remember, your disease issues likely took many, many, years to develop , and to trade up your disease issues for health?
you’ve got to pay your dues, that’s the natural order of things – and that takes time …

Feel free to subscribe to my YouTube channel if you would like to listen as I read this book out loud…
“ I am most happy to be privileged to stand in this presence; in this magnificent Temple of Science, consecrated not only to the enlightenment of the people of a nation, but to “the diffusion of knowledge among mankind”;
and in this keen and concentrated intellectual atmosphere, surrounded by the moral power of a great and mighty nation, before some, and I hope many, of the chosen representatives of – in the language of one of your number- “ the most glorious country that the sun has ever shone upon”, and as one of the sovereign people, speak to the wise heads and great hearts of the of these Dis-United but soon to be Re-United – in bonds never more to be broken or even questioned – States, the great truths which concern the Preservation of Health and the Cure of Disease;
which involve the issue of the rise and fall of nations; and which, next to the Gospel of Christianity, are the most important to the perpetuity of this nation, the permanency of its institutions, and the welfare and progress of the American people.
Even this mighty and majestic were you are now waging so successfully upon the “Contraband Confederacy” does not involve the prosperity and destiny of our country so deeply as do the principles on which I wage exterminating war against a false medical system.
With these preliminaries, and your kind indulgence, I will now address myself to my subject.
It has always been one of the most difficult practical problems in the world how to present new truths so as not to offend old errors;
for persons are very apt to regard arguments directed against their opinions as attacks upon their persons; and many there are who mistake their own ingrained prejudices for establish principles”.
MY THOUGHTS:
Here is a great man, who only wanted to share the truth regarding human disease and how to heal oneself – He is presenting these “truths” with the “highly educated doctors”…
little did he know, that the corruption in this field already gained a foothold, and that they would hold onto their “germ theory” lies at all costs – because the medical field was not put in place to help people heal, it was created as a front- in order to harm people & profit under the guise of helping people.
Here is a man willing to put his medical career on the line, while challenging the current group think because he knew without a doubt that the medical profession was on the wrong path – yet did they listen?
No, they kept on with the agenda, they kept teaching false information.
Fast forward to todays world now, & The same old fairytale lies (germ Theory) are taught & believed – where the medical profession is king, even though their germ theory paradigm is false & causing harm …
Germ theory has the general public in masks, using needles, and taking health advice from the most unhealthy people going – We’ve hardly evolved from the early 1800s, it’s the same old story, a few people know the truth and attempt to expose & share it – while the masses & the medical system continue to March on towards destruction – because they either can’t see the truth, or they are aware of the truth but a pay check is more important to them…
Nothing has changed…YET

“And here I must be permitted to say a few words by way of personal explanation. Why do I go to the people instead of the medical profession with my controversy?
And why do I seek controversy at all?
Because the profession utterly refuses to discuss the issue I present; and because controversy is the only method by which both sides and all points of our subject can be brought fully and fairly before the public mind.
It is difficult for one person to represent both sides of an argument. He may not do equal and exact justice to the positions of his opponent, or if he does, the public may suspect him of unfairness, or ignorance, or prejudice.
For these reasons it is that I have long desired and many times invited and challenged a discussion with the strongman of the profession on the merits and the demerits of our respective systems.
I wish to bring her controversy before the whole people, that all may see and judge for themselves where the truth is. If I am wrong, I wish to be righted.
If my opponents are right, they should be sustained.
If my system is true, there’s is false. If their system is true, mine is false. There is an “irrepressible conflict” between them
And again, the drug medical system cannot bear examination. To explain it would be to destroy it, and to defend it even is to damage it. It’s only safety consists in non-agitation, and all it asks is to be let alone”.
MY THOUGHTS:
Little do people realize, we’ve been programmed into accepting the medical system as our “choice” when it comes to health care.
Yet there are countless movies, TV shows and snippets all advertising & portraying doctors as the only people capable of figuring out the health issues humans are prone to.
I don’t know when people are going to wake up to the fact that a doctor only has training to either suppress symptoms with dangerous pharmaceutical drugs, or to cut out the symptom with surgery. Both methods come with a long list of potential complications.
A doctor is not trained to seek out the root cause, remove it, and wait for healing to occur.
Doctors are still collecting money for cancer cures, they are incompetent when it comes knowledge of healing the human body. They focus on blood tests and scans when neither will reveal what’s right in front of them .
It wasn’t common when I was a child to see the doctor for every little health issue, but as the years passed, people became more reliant and used to “regular doctor visits”, even going to them for a fever, cold, or a flu!!
In this book, Dr TRALL reveals that people once recovered from common illness on their own when there wasn’t a doctor to see in town.
Once the doctor was in town, people started dying from common illnesses – yet hardly anyone realized because there is always “plausible deniability” where medical malpractice is concerned …
It couldn’t possibly be the “treatment” that killed him, it had to be the disease, just like the doctor said!

“ But the system I teach cannot live without investigation.
The more it is examined, the better it is liked; the better it is understood, the more it is confided in; and no person probably lives on the broad earth who has fully investigated it who does not fully believe it.
Give me the most capable expounder and defender of the Drug Medical System that the Colleges can furnish for an opponent, and I will soon have three-fourths of the American people, and nine-tenths of the doctors, of my faith.
And what interest have you, Ladies and Gentlemen, in this discussion?
Who appreciates health except those who have lost it? Who values life till it trembles on the verge of the grave? Tell me what value you place on health; inform me what advantage it would be to you to be relieved of all danger and all apprehension of dying of disease;
say what yo are worth to yourselves, to your families, to society, to humanity, and then I will calculate the value of my subject to you.
There are but two medical systems in existence – the Drug Medical System and the Hygienic Medical System.
One employee is poisons as a proper and natural remedies or diseases; the other employees normal or hygienic materials and agencies.
There are several branches or sects of the Drug Medical System- the Allopathic, Homeopathic, Eclectic, Physio- Medical, etc.
But they are essentially one and the same.
They all differ in certain secondary and unimportant problems and theories; but they all agree in primary premises. They are all reducible to the fundamental propositions of “curing one disease by producing another”.
They are all based on the principle of inducing a drug disease to cure a primary disease. It is true that Eclecticism and Physio- Medicalism do not recognize this principle; but it is true nevertheless”.
MY THOUGHTS:
We must learn for ourselves, and gain an understanding with what is truly taking place within when ingesting specific food types, medications, vitamins, supplements, etc. Otherwise, we must rely on someone else’s explanation/training for the reasoning with what is occurring within our own body.
Example: It is common these days for an individual to receive a pharmaceutical drug product such as
v-a-c-c-i-n-e.
adverse reactions are also common because it is a cocktail of foreign substances that do not belong in the human body. when that individual asks the medical doctor if it was the v.ax. product given that caused said reaction, the doctor generally will say that it’s a coincidence, and the reaction is unrelated.
The doctor is trained to handle these situations in this manner, it’s protocol – it always comes down to liability.
Because you didn’t learn for yourself, or research the ingredients/adverse reactions beforehand, you have two choices: take the doctors word for it, or don’t. Most people DO because that doctor spent several years studying textbooks and they did not.
There’s also plausible deniability that removes them from liability in most cases, nobody can see, or prove that damage within is occurring and the onset of disease as a result can take time to manifest. This is how they get away with causing harm – most of them don’t see themselves that they cause harm.
I’ve now spent just as long as a doctor studying information that directly contradicts and challenges their modalities & protocols. The difference? I’ve healed my past health issues (that doctors in the past said were “incurable”, and I get to witness others heal their health issues.
Putting your health into someone else’s hands entirely wont always produce the desired results. If you wish to build health, or to maintain health, you had better take the time to learn what our species specific diet truly is, learn the truth about drug medications and their effect on the human body, and take the necessary time it takes to cleanse and to heal from your past dietary & lifestyle choices .
All drug medications cause harm. Even over the counter pain medications build toxicity and cause internal damage … There isn’t any beneficial concentrated, isolate in pill (or any form, vitamin, supplement, etc) that is beneficial for health …
We become victims on many levels when we do not learn how to properly care for our health.

“Drug Medication, no matter in what disguise nor under what name it is practiced, consists in employing, as remedies for diseases, those things which produce disease in well persons.
It’s materia Medica is simply a list of drugs, chemicals, dye-stuffs- in a word, poisons.
They may be a vegetable, animal, or mineral, and maybe called “apothecary stuff” or medicines; but they are, nevertheless, poisons.
They may come to us in the shape of acids, alkalies, salts, oxides, earths, roots, barks, seeds, leaves, flowers, gums, resins, secretions, excretions, etc.,. but all are subversive of organic structures;
all are incompatible with vital functions; all are antagonistic to living matter; all produce disease when brought in contact in any manner with the living domain; all are poisons.
On the contrary, Hygenic Medication consists in employing, as remedial agents for sick persons, the same materials and influences which preserve health in well persons. It rejects all poisons.
And here let me correct a common error abroad in relation to what thousands of people have understood as “Hydrotherapy” or “Water Treatment “, the “Water Cure”, and the “Cold Water Cure”, etc.
It is a prevalent opinion that the advocates of this system accept the philosophy of the Allopathic system, but reject its remedies, employing water, diet, etc. as substitutes for drug medicines.
The true system of the Healing Art- Hygienic Medication – rejects not only the drugs, medicines, or poisons of the popular system, but also repudiates the philosophy or theories on which there employment is predicated.
It is in direct antagonism with the Drug System , both in theory and in practice. It does not propose to employ air, light, temperature, water, etc., as substitutes for drugs, or because they are better or safer than drugs.
It rejects drugs because they are intrinsically bad, and employs hygienic agencies because they are intrinsically good.
I would reject drugs if there were no other remedial agents in the universe, because, if I could not do good, I would “cease to do evil”.
I would not poison a person because he is sick.
No physician has ever yet given the world a reason that would Bear the ordeal of one moment’s scientific examination, why a sick person should be poisoned more than should a well person;
and I do not believe the world will endure until he finds such a reason.
The medical profession may prosecute this inquiry another 3000 years, and destroy other hundreds of millions of the human race in experiments with drugs and doses, but they will never arrive any near to a solution of the problem.
They will never be able to give a satisfactory answer to the question, for none exists”.
MY THOUGHTS
Natural Hygiene Studies have given me a lot to think about. Coming from the perspective of Arnold Ehret, or Dr. Morse, their teachings differ when it comes to the use of herbal “remedies”. I mean are they remedies? Or are they suppressing symptoms, adding additional chemistry & compounds within an already unhealthy physiology to contend with?
I’ve also been studying the LIFE SCIENCE course by T.C Fry who also states that all herbs act as poisons to the human body & in no way help to “heal” the human body – the body heals the body period. Yet there’s this grey area in my mind because if our natural diet should include greens, many herbs are greens.
Since diving into Natural Hygiene, combined with experience & my own take on things, so far, subject to change, I’m thinking that concentrated herbal tinctures could be too concentrated & unnatural for the body, yet I still don’t see any issue with picking or using single herbs such as dandelion leaf, chickweed, plantain, etc., for teas, or to add to a salad for example – that seems pretty natural to me anyways – I’ve been studying herbs for longer than I even knew about health, I’ve always been fascinated by them and now, to let go of all that information? I’ll continue to read & observe before drawing any conclusions yet.
What are your thoughts on the use of herbs?

“ In approaching the argument, allow me, firstly, to call your attention to certain facts which may tend to convince you that the philosophy of my subject (if, indeed, it has a philosophy), is worth worthy of your profound just attention;
and which will, moreover, explain why I am so glad of this opportunity to speak before the learned men and the honored servants of the American people, and through them to the nation, and through the nation to the whole civilized world.
And I especially invite and solicit the attention of medical men of all the Drug Schools. I shall controvert all of their fundamental dogmas; deny all of their pretended science; challenge all of their philosophy; and condemn nearly all of their practice.
If I know myself, I have no motive, no desire, no interest in this discussion, save the advancement of truth. And I ask medical gentleman to hear me through, and take exceptions to every word I utter amiss, and to state their objections to whatever I affirm which they deem erroneous, As frankly and as publicly as I express my opinions.
In this intellectual as well as commercial age, most people prefer to reason inductively – to construct principles from facts – rather than to deduce facts from theories. I will, therefore, refer to certain historical data in the shape of “fixed facts”, which go to prove, in a general sense, The propositions I have announced, and afterword proceed to develop the principles which underlie them, and the premises which explain them.
And here it becomes necessary for me to make a brief introduction to my preface. I must indicate the groundwork of my whole argument, that you may be the better able to judge, as I go along, whether the facts and the logic which I shall adduce, agree or disagree with my premises and my conclusions.
I charge, and shall undertake to prove – nay, I shall prove, for it is true, and I have the evidence – that the regular medical profession, in all of its standard authorities, text books and schools, and an all its current periodicals, and in all of its floating literature, and in all its history, and in all the lectures of its living authors, teaches –
- A False doctrine of the nature of disease.
- A false doctrine of the action of remedies.
- A false theory of vitality.
- A false theory of the vis Medicatrix Naturae.
- A False doctrine of the relations of the disease and the Vis Medicatrix Naturae.
- A false doctrine of the relations of remedies to diseases.
- A False doctrine of the relation of disease to the vital functions.
- A False doctrine of the relations of remedies to the healthy structures.
- A False theory of the relations of organic and inorganic matter.
- A False doctrine of diseases in relation to their causes and effects.
- A False doctrine of the law of cure.
- A False doctrine of the nature and source of remedies”.
MY THOUGHTS:
I suppose his first mistake was presenting his health knowledge and findings to the “enemy” so to speak…
there was, and still there is no interest in natural healing…
What he uncovered because there was no way to capitalize, profit, or gain control over people’s lives when actually helping them to heal their health issues.
The medical & pharmaceutical industry have never been about health and healing- rather, it was actually designed & created to prolong, & perpetuate sickness and disease under the guise of public health…Pharmaceutical Drugs harm & create disease.
I know that statement sounds harsh, because a lot of good people become doctors, nurses, surgeons, etc., yet they learn a lot of wrong information which serves to harms people without realization on their part, because they’ve got specific, harmful protocols to follow & they are not permitted to think (or do) outside the box..
The highway to hell is paved with good intentions.
Here was a brilliant man presenting truth to the wrong crowd, wolves in sheep’s clothing …
The enemy cannot ever be defeated if one cannot recognize who the enemy is…This statement is very relevant with today’s scenario.
