If your Child is ailing then give it Kalzana
If any of your children are delicate and irrit- able, suffer from delayed teething and weak bones, it is more than probable that a lack of minerals is the cause of the trouble.
Give your children Kalzana tablets or powder for a few weeks and you will soon see the difference in their health. It strengthens the cells of blood, body and nerves, increases the power of resistance and makes bones stron and teeth white and healthy.
Give Kalrana to the grown-up members of your family, and too, will enjoy continual good health.
