A63797 Healths grand preservative: or The womens best doctor A treatise, shewing the nature and operation of brandy, rumm, rack, and other distilled spirits, and the ill consequences of mens, but especially of womens drinking such pernicious liquors and smoaking tobacco. As likewise, of the immoderate eating of flesh without a due observation of time, or nature of the creature which hath proved very destructive to the health of many. Together, with a rational discourse of the excellency of herbs, highly approved of by our ancestors in former times. And the reasons why men now so much desire the flesh more than other food. A work highly fit to be persued and observed by all that love their health, and particularly necessary to the female sex, on whose good or ill constitution the health and strength, or sickness and weakness of all [cropped]sterity does in a more especial manner depend. By Tho. Tryon. Tryon, Thomas, 1634-1703. 1682 (1682) Wing T3182; ESTC R219417 19,602 25

TRYON London Printed for the Author and are to be sold by Lang Curtis near Fleet-Bridge 1682. Healths Grand Preservative OR THE Womens best Doctor c. CHAP. I. Of the Nature and Operation of Brandy Rumm and Rack which of late years are become as common Drinks amongst many as Beer and Ale not only in England but also in all the West-Indies where the English inhabit and of the evil consequences that do attend the Drinkers thereof BRandy R●mm Rack and other distilled Spirits are all very per●icious and hurtful to the Health of the Body if not sparingly taken on extraordinary occasions in a Physi●●● way for the Intention of all such Chymical preparations when first Inr●●ted was for Medicinal uses and not to be used as Common drink as of late years indiscre●tly they are to the destruction of many Thousands the frequent use of them contracting such 〈◊〉 and stubbo●n D●seases as for the most part are incurable 1. All such Spirits as are drawn by common Distilla●●● through those cruel Sulphuro●s Fires where the Air hath not its free egress and regress their 〈…〉 har●h fiery Spirit or Brandy The same you shall have if you distil Sugar only it yields a stronger Spirit for the more Bal●amick the Body of any thing is the stronger and fiercer is its Spirit when that Balsamick body and the pure Volatile Spirits are destroyed or seperated from it Now here you will see that the Volatile Spirit and 〈◊〉 Cordial 〈◊〉 or Body both in the Sack and also in the Sugar are destroyed and there doth remain as is said before only a fierce harsh Brimstony Spirit void of all the wholesome qualities Sack and Sugar did contain for the Volatile Spirit or Tincture is the Essential Life of every thing and its the maintainer of its Colour Smell and T●st Now these pure Spirits will not endure any violent Heat or harsh Fire but through the fiery heat and want of the free Egress and Regress of the Air they presently become Suff●cated and then the sweet Balsamick body is turned sour for this sweet Balsamick body is the pleasant Habitation of the Volatile Spirit and this pure Spirit is the true Life of that Balsamick body they are inseperable Companions the one cannot subsist without the other destroy either and both Dye Therefore all such Spirits so drawn do loose their Balsamick body with all their Cordial Vertues and Tinctures put what Herbs or Li●u●rs you will into such Furnaces they are presently P●●ndeted of their Natural Colour and run off white whereby it appears that this Common way of Distillation destroys the pure Natural Vertues and Tincture for from the Tincture proceeds all the Variety of Colours both in Vegetables Minerals and Annimals so that such Spirits do only contain a harsh fier●e Fiery Nature and for that reason if they be frequently Drink do ●rey upon the Natural Heat and by degrees weaken it destroying the very Life of Nature by way of Simile for every Like works upon its likeness whence it comes to pass that in those who addict themselves to the Drinking of these high Fiery or Brimstony Spirits their Natural heat grows cold and Feeble and their Appetites are weakened they destroying the Power of the Digestive Faculty of the Stomach so that many such People after Eating are forced to Drink a Dram to help concoction all other Drinks proving too cold for them which constrains them to continue ●ooping of such Liquor a sad Remedy when we go about to help a mischief by encreasing the application of the same ill means which first occasioned it● for these wrathful Spirits have awakened the Central Heat which is the Root of Nature that ought not to have been awakened or kindled for if the Central Heat be stired up by any unnatural Meats or Drinks or other violence done to Nature then presently follows the Consumption of the Radical Moisture and the pure Spirits and Lively Tinctures become Suffocated wherein consists the Essential Life of Nature And as in the before mentioned Example the pure Spirit and Balsamick body in Sack will not indure those cruel harsh Sulphurous Fires where the Air hath not its free Influence but presently becomes Suffocated or destroyed and the most pleasant Sweetness thereof turned into a Stink so neither will the Radical Spirits and pure Oyl in the Body endure those Sulphurous Flames and Fierce Spirits without sustaining the like prejudice for that pure Vertue or Essential Principal which the Lord in the Creation endued every thing with which is the true Life thereof will not endure any violent motion or harsh Fire to touch them especially if the circulation of the Air be wanting as it is in all such Distillations for these Spirits are so pure and subtle that when any Injury is offered to them they either evaporate or become suffocated for this Essential Powder or pure Life is the moderator or Friendly Quality in all Minerals Vegetables and Animals which doth mix and Qualify the harsh Fiery dark Principal and does allay and moderate the cruel harsh Nature of the Dark-Fire as does plainly appear in all the forementioned Liquors and also in Charcoal for before the Sack or any Balsamick Liquor was put into the Still and drawn off those very same Fiery harsh sulphurous Spirits were essentially in the Wine or whatever else it be for it is the Root of Nature and the Original to every Life but being mixed or incorporated with the Balsamick body and pure spirit the fiery fierce sulphurous spirit is thereby swallowed up and as it were hid and moderated for in what thing soever the pure Balsamick body is predominant there this dark furious spirit is hid or captivated an Example whereof we have in Sugar where when the sweet Balsamick body is potent there also this fiery sulphurous Spirit is strong but not manifest but as soon as this Essential Spirit and Balsamick body are seperated or destroyed this dark Fiery Brimstonie Spirit appears in its own form and becomes like a Mad furious Devil in Nature its cloathing being the dark-Dark-Fire for this Spirit hath lost
