WARNING!
The Danger of Careless Reduction. WEIGHT reduction may be dangerous if carried out
recklessly. Pounds should never be eliminated too rapidly, and individuals past middle age should not attempt to reduce without consulting a doctor, especially when a large amount of weight is to be reduced.
For those who do not wish to bother with calories and strict dieting “ENDOXIDINA" is a safe and sure way - to bring the weight back to normal. A great num- ber of persons throughout the world have been benefited by taking ENDOXIDINA tablets, and it can be safely tried because Endoxidina does not cause the disturbances frequently accompanying " the use of other reducing medicines. as for instance the thyroid preparations.
ENDOXIDINA possesses energetic oxidizing properties in the organism of man, and induces in the obese subject a gradual and slow decrease in bodily weight through an increase in organic combustion and a consumption of the excessivė, reserve of fat without obliging the person to make excessive restrictions iri the use of food.
The action of ENDOXIDINA is sure,--and it is harm- less! It will not only reduce your weight, but it will keep you slim, and give you a sense of well being,- lightness-and greater agility! Its effects are not lack- ing when other usual remedies have given, no, or slight results. ENDOXIDINA has proved to be an excellent co-efficient in the regular reduction of superfluous weight!
