When the noute staga is over, he has an even more Imperative need of something which will restore his old feeling of health, bring back his sensation of woll-being and strength, enable him on the weight he has lost, and present an put appearanca less like that of a skeleton.

Senatoren has been proved take more easily ulgested than any other food preparation. It therefore, puts the minimum strain on the weakened organs of digestion.
Here is a medical opinion-taken from thousands of others of its value in such complainin:~
