TATURE never intended you to suffer unduly. Why is it then that so many thousands of women experience such pain. and weakness.

Simply because if ere is a' shortage of vital minerals in the body..

That is the reply, supported by the best med cal opinion. Calcium is the vital food ol every body cell, and any shortage hinders the correct performance of all bodily functions, particularly those of women,

The use of Kalzana, the mineral food, for a few weeks provides the whole system with the indispensable minerals needed to establish that care-free, vigorous health that Nature intended you to enjoy.

But it must be Kalzana, as only in this scientific form (a combination of sodium. - lactate and calcium-lactate) will the mineral salts be taken up and retained by your body. Lose your dread-re-establish the functions on a normal basis by starting a course of Kalzana to-day.
