Nervous Indigestion. ‘‘Ordinary Tonics Always Bad." A Physician’s Views on Diet. "Nervous indigestion" has become a very common complaint,' said a physician lecturingat the London Institute of Hygiene recently. Victims of it: gain scant general sympathy, and it is often summed up as imaginary by their friends who have never suffered from it. The nervousi system, he continued, acts very much on the digestion, and brain disturbances cause in some people the secretion of tool much gastric juice and in others the reveijse. Ordinary tonics, said the lecturer, are always bad for yi*eak digestion, and quinine, iron, arsenic, and such things, although they may bring about a ravenous appetite for a few days, invariably have a reaction. The Value of Special Diet. Incalculable harm is done, continued the-lecturer, by kindly friends urging the sufferer to “ feed up,” and many a case of chronic indigestion could be traced to the ‘ ‘ feeding up ’ 1 friend. Special diet is, however, frequently necessary, and for this purpose the "therapeutical food,” Sanatogen, proves very useful. Its chief value lies in the fact'that it directly tones and invigoraies the nerves with which the stomach and other digestive organs are equipped, and on which their efficiency depends. At the same time Sanatogen is itself a food, giving, the maximum of concentrated nutriment with the minimum of bulk, and being absorbed by the weakest stomach without any strain on the diges- ; tive powers. The result is that the sufferer from nervous indigesition can greatly reduce and simplify his ordinary diet whilst actually increasing his nutrition by means of Sanatogen. Moreover, his whole nerve-energy is increased, so that the nerves controlling the stomach, etc., become stronger and more efficient, with the result that a radical change for the better is soon established. | A Remarkable Letter. An interesting case in point is that of the Rev. J. J. Tyndall, Chaplain to the t Fleet of the Naval Station, Simonstown, J who writes from Dublin as follows : j " I was compelled to return home from j abroad owing to a serious disorder of my digestion. For about five years I could scarcely digest my food at all, and the almost- continual regurgitations of food made me pretty well worn out. After having tried many patent foods without avail, I at last tried Sanatogen, and with remarkable success. Really, it is making a new man of me. The acidity has almost ceased, and I am now able to take solid' ! food without any unpleasant results." , Sufferers from nervous indigestion would , do well to bear in mind the above warn- I ing as to the ill effects of ordinary tonics. | The best plan is to take a course of Sanatogen, and at the same time to consult a physician who will correct any fundamental error in the diet or mode of life. [Note. Sanatogen of perfect pre-war quality can be obtained at all chemist* from 3/9 to 9/- per tin. 3 Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure, For Coughs and Colds, never fails.
