Indigestion \ and most , digestive troubles am dkused by excess acidity ■due to- the fomncntat-ion of food widen ■remains in the\s;tomacli longer than it should, -do owAg to- weakened stomach muscles. AsVhis acidity increases' it sets' up fo-rthek fermentation, and the .suH'c-neir eudu-iVs intense pain, the stomach is dilated by gases. To correct these d-igeistVo troubles quickly, easily and surelA take halt a. teaspoonful of ‘Biisurat\d’ Magnesia in a little water -after Siting or whenever pain is felt. iilis immediately stops the ferment aco|oa and _ neutralizes the excess ackliV, enabling the pnooess/ of (digestion to to. carried out iu a natural way. ‘Biswrateid’ Magnesia heals the inflamed lto-roach_ lining lan)d (generally tones u\the digestive organs. To- avoid that unpleasant taste in the mouth on awakening iu the morning, which is mused by acidity, take a dose of ‘Asm-rated Magnesia at- night before Retiring.
