HOW TO REDUCE.
The Dangor of Careless Reduction,
WEIGHT reduction may be
dangerous if carried out recklessly. Pounds should neveri 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 "ENDOXIDINĄ" 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 tablets, taking ENDOXIDINA and it can be safely tried because Endoxidina does not cause the disturbances frequently accom- panying the use of other reducing medicines, as for instance the thyroid preparations. n.ENDOXIDINA possesses energe-
tic 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 excessive reserve of fat without obliging the person to make excessive restrictions in the Use of food.
