Iridology will not show or name a specific disease but provides information about the body tissues which indicate tendencies toward conditions of “dis-ease”, often before symptoms appear. Iridology will not reveal surgery performed under anesthesia as nerve impulses are discontinued. Iridology cannot locate gallstones or germ life, but will indicate the presence of inflammation and toxic conditions which are a refuge for their development. It will not show pregnancy, as that is a normal function of the female body.
