REMEMBER
teeth are living parts of your body. They may be ill through lack of the proper nourishment-Calcium.
Cure your teeth
from within
KALZANA, the Calcium food, is the new idea in the care of the teeth. For many years people thought that a clean tooth could not decay. Yet however carefully we cleaned them they always did decay. For your teeth are living organs of the body; they may be weak, they may be ill and underfed. Through microscopic canals they get their food {calcium] from the blood.
Weak teeth give continuous trouble. By taking Kalzana, the calcium food, you can make your teeth strong and white and prevent decay..
A well-known dental surgeon' writses "Kaleana makes the teeth strong and hard and so stops tooth decay. I have often seen extraordinary results," Keep your teeth clean with a dentifrice, but make them strong with Kalzana. Only then will you be really free from decay, Kalzana will make your teeth hard and healthy. Moreover, Kalzana strengthens the whole constitution and gives your whole body increased powers of resistance.
