New Strength

Dr. Claude L. Wheeler writes

"The weakened tissues

and nerves absorb Sanatogen readily, without cousing any strain to the digestive system. The revitalizi ing influence of Sanatogen is often immediate."

Sanatogen infuses into the very cells of blood and nerves exactly those elements-phosphorus and albumin-from which health and strength are derived When you feel weak or hervous, start taking Sanatogen at once. You will enjoy its revivifying influence within a few weeks..
