DON'T NEGLECT DYSPEPSIA, A DANGEROUS BOLICY LEADING TO UNTOLD MISERY LATER ON. Untold misery invariably results from neglect of the-early symr/toms of indigestion and dyspepsia, and there is always the possibility ithat stomach ulceration or gastritis may develop. That is' why it is so dangerous for those who experience pain after eating, with a flushed face, heartburn, etc., to,wait and see if the symptoms will subside of their own accord or become worse. Be assured that they will certain become worse unless you take steps to neutralise the acid, which is the root cause of the trouble. To neutralise' acid in the stomach, and so prevent food fermentation an 3 unpleasantness after meals, is quite an easy matter. Simply get some bisurated magnesia from the chemist, and take half a teaspoonful in a little water immediately aater meals. This plan is surely preferable to dosing the stomach with drugs or confining yourself, to an imattractive diet of easily digested foods. It enables you to eat freely of the "foods you fancy, for by taking the bisurated magnesia you keep the stomach quite free from acid and prevent all possibility of food fermentation. Food "remains bland and sweet until perfectly digested, an"d consequently there is no pain. This plan is recommended by many specialists, and is worthy of a thorough trial By all, but to avoid confusion with the acetates, citrates, or oxides of magiiesia,, readers should Mk the chemists very distinctly for She bisurated, the form prepared especially for stomach use.—Advt.
