A SAFE EEMEDY IN THE TREATMENT OP OBESITY OR CORPULENCY. NOT A PATENT MEDICINE. From time immemorial it has been noticed that birds feeding on the Phytolacco Berries became vet. lean, yet retained their health perfectly. The earliest mention in Medical Works we can find of the remedy 13 in Bale's "New Remed'es," X). 561 : — " I once «Jggosted tho Phytolacca as a remedy in fatty degeneration of the heart and fatty lieart (birds which feed on the berries lose all their adipose tissue)." To DrVf. M. Griffith, a regular practitioner in Pcnssylvania, belongs the honour of having introduced the remedy in practice. In 1889 he published an article on tbe subject in the " Medical Summary," ot Philadelphia, and expresses surprise that the Phytolacca Berry Treatment of bo distressing a condit oni continues to be neglected. From this paper wo extract the following :— " The dose is one to two tablets befo>*e each meal, sometimes increased to four. They diminish the, appetite to some extent. In some cased the reduction of weight is remarkable, as much as 15 to 2Upouud9 a month. The reduction is frequently apparent the first week : a feeling of lightntss and comfort follows their administration. One patient lost 40 pounrtH in three months, and suffered no inconvenience; the : average is from 10 to 15 pounds a. month. • * * lam somewhat surprised thatthistreatmenthas not received the attention it merits. Phytolacca seems analogous to lodide of Potash, and acts in cbronic rheumatism similarly. I have found it efficacious in that painful form of rheumatism of the armsand . shoulders, of which so z»any complain. It does not constipate the bowels, but rather acts as an aperient. .It seems to have the power o£ causing absorption of adipose tissue in a isreat degree.". PHYTOLAC^A BEREY TABLETS AND JUlCfcj have passed through their experimental stage. Read what Dr Wise has to say about this remedy ;— _ "My experience is that about 75 per cent of corpulent people who tak« it reduce their weight. All corpulent people are more or less in clanger of apoplexy and benrt failure, &c., as well as from rheumatism, are clumsy and heavy about the joints and limbs. Now, Phytolacca will every time reduce the fatty degeneration about the heart, thereby facilitating a free circulation. It has the power of dissolving the fat, and thereby the patient will feel light and active. It will often cure rheumatism that has resisted treatment for years, particularly the kind that affects the shoulders and arms. Personally, I can report reductions of flesh that would seem almost incredible. For instance, I knew a man who weighed 3501 b reduced to 1801 bin three months. 1 also know of a number of ladies who have reduced their waist measure 9 to 12 inches."
