Alum root was recommended by Edgar Cayce for treatment of abdominal cramps and diarrhea. Here is a simple formula for preparing alum root:

"Prepare this also in a fusion: Put 1/4 oz. of alum root in 4 oz. of distilled water and let come to a boil, then strain. Be sure the alum root is crushed. Add to this, 1/2 oz. of simple syrup and take 1 oz. of grain alcohol or rye whiskey and add. This is only to be taken, 1 tsp. when there is cramping through the alimentary canal or colon." (5057-1)
