"The Royal Road to Health; or, the Secret of Health Without Drugs" by Chas. A. Tyrrell is a medical treatise written in the early 20th century. This work advocates a hygienic approach to health that rejects the use of pharmaceuticals, arguing instead for natural methods of disease prevention and treatment. The book's primary focus is on the importance of maintaining internal cleanliness, particularly through the regular cleansing of the colon, to promote overall health. The opening of the work lays out the author's critical stance on the drug system of medicine, linking it to a plethora of "incurable diseases" and suggesting that real reform lies in understanding the true causes of illness. Tyrrell emphasizes that the accumulation of waste in the body leads to various health problems and proposes a simpler and more effective method for maintaining health: regular colon cleansing with clean water. He introduces his own invention, the "J. B. L. Cascade," which facilitates this process, asserting that the proper management of bodily waste is essential to preventing disease and fostering recovery. This portion of the book establishes a foundation for Tyrrell's overarching thesis that health should be achieved through natural means rather than relying on conventional medical practices.
