GAS IN THE STOMACH IS DANGEROUS.
* Physicians Recommend the Use of Magnesia. Sufferers from indigestion or dyspepsia should remember that the presence of gas or wind in the stomach invariably indicates that the stomach is troubled by excessive acidity. This acid causes the food to ferment and the fermenting food in turn gives lise to noxious gases which distend the stomach, hamper the normal functions of vital internal organs, cause acute headaches, interfere with the action of the heart, and charge the blood stream with deadly poisons, which in time must ruin the health. Physicians say that to quickly dispel a dangerous accumulation of wind in the stomach and to stop the food fermentation which creates the gas, the acid in the stomach must ho neutralised, and that for this purpose there is nothing quite so good as half a teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia taken in a little water immediately after meals. Tin's instantly neutralises the acid, thus stopping fermentation and the formation of gas, and enables the inflamed, distended stomach to proceed with us work uu i-jr natural conditions, liuur.itad magnesia is obtainable in powder or tablet form from any chemist ; but as there are many different forms of magnesia it is important that the bisurated which the physicians prescribe should be distinctly asked for.
