Aches and Pains Nature’s Protest—Many are living in violation of the laws of health and are ignorant of the relation their habits of eating, drinking, and working sustain to their health. They will not arouse to their true condition until nature protests against the abuses she is suffering, by aches and pains in the system. If even then the sufferers would only commence the work right, and would resort to the simple means they have neglected—the use of water and proper diet—nature would have just the help she requires and which she ought to have had long before. If this course is pursued, the patient will generally recover without being debilitated.—Healthful Living, 61, 1865 (Part 3). (Selected Messages 2:451.) {2MCP 510.3}

Smerter er naturens protest — Mange lever i overtrædelse med sundhedslovene og er uvidende om forholdet til deres spise, drikke og arbejdsvaner vil understøtte deres sundhed. De vil ikke vågne op til deres sande tilstand, før naturen protesterer imod den mishandling som den lider under, ved smerter i organismen. Hvis den lidende blot ville begynde at arbejde rigtigt, og ville ty til de enkle midler de har forsømt – brug af vand og den rette kost – ville naturen få den hjælp den kræver og som den burde have haft for længe siden. Hvis denne vej følges, vil patienten i det hele taget genoprette sig uden at blive svækket.— Healthful Living, 61, 1865 (Del 3). (På fast grunn 2:451.)
