HEARTBURN
Many people suffer from this distressing condition without realising that it is a form of indigestion produced by the de composition of indigestible food retained in the stomach. An occasional dose of Maclean Brand Stomach Powder in water prevents the retention of indigestible food in the intestines. Apart from the help it adlords to the digestive organs, Maclean Brand Steinach Powder has a slight, gentle laxative effect which helps the system to pass on indigestible food so that it cannot ferment and clog up the a
testines.
