No matter how severe your digestive trouble may be, you can get quick rellef by neutralising the excess acid that is almost sure to be the cause. 90% of all stomach disorder is due to excess acid which ferments food, causes painful gases to form and attocks the delicate stomach lining. To neutralisa the surplus acid and end your indiges- tion you should take a little Bisurated" Magnesia after meals or when discom- fort is felt Binurated Magnesla not only counteraces the acidity and pre- vents fermentazion but also soother and heals the latiamed stomach lining, To ..get quick reflef from stomach pain or Evald digestive trouble there is nothing to equal' Disurated Magnesia which makes indigestion Impossible by re- moving the cause.
