Arsenic fights against fattening and strengthens the astral body. And the result is that the person can fight this rancidity. These are things that are extremely important. If a person shows an inclination within themselves to be unable to overcome their putrid protein through the etheric body, then some compound with copper usually has an extremely strong effect on the person as a remedy. Copper is effective when the lower abdominal diseases, intestinal diseases, are directly caused by the protein. But if you notice that something is making itself felt through the mouth, through the sense of taste, it does not help to give the person copper, but arsenic is needed because you first have to strengthen the astral body. So it is not enough to simply state that this or that disease lies in this or that part of the human being; instead, one must know where they come from. Whether they come from rotten protein in the intestines or from fats that have gone rancid, which in turn affect the intestines and stomach through the taste of the mouth.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"II.

Das Arsen kämpft gegen das Fettwerden, stärkt den Astralleib. Und die Folge ist dann, daß der Mensch dieses Ranzigwerden bekämpfen kann. Das sind Dinge, die außerordentlich wichtig sind. Wenn der Mensch in sich selber die Neigung zeigt, sein faules Eiweiß durch den Ätherleib nicht besiegen zu können, dann wirkt gewöhnlich auf den Menschen außerordentlich stark als ein Heilmittel irgendwelche Verbindung mit Kupfer. Kupfer wirkt also, wenn die Unterleibskrankheiten, Darmkrankheiten direkt bewirkt sind durch das Eiweiß. Wenn Sie aber bemerken, daß durch den Mund, durch den Geschmack etwas sich bemerkbar macht, da hilft es nichts, wenn Sie ihm Kupfer beibringen, sondern da muß es Arsen sein, weil Sie zunächst seinen Astralleib stark machen müssen. Also daß man eben einfach konstatiert, in diesem oder jenem Teil des Menschen liegen diese oder jene Krankheiten, das tut es nicht, sondern man muß wissen, woher sie kommen. Ob sie von faulem Eiweiß im Darm oder von ranzig gewordenen Fetten kommen, die auf dem Umweg durch den Mundgeschmack wiederum in die Därme und in den Magen hineinwirken.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":206,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/352/1924-01-23/p017"}],"english":["GA 352/1924-01-23/p017"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":206,"en_words":209,"ratio":1.01,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","reader"],"reader_german":["GA 352/1924-01-23/p017"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.02,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":6328,"original_word_count":6181,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"A Spiritual Scientific View of Nature and Man","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA352/English/SOL2024/19240123p02.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
