"Nerves
(Irritability, listlessness, stomach trouble.)
Nerve-weakness causes bad transmission of the nerve Impulses and may result in the irregular functioning of almost every organ of the body. Irritable nerves, digestive troubles, stomach pains, sleeplessness all these different complaints are due to one and the same cause: "Nerve Weakness," and can only be conquered by strengthening and feeding up the very nerves of the body.
With Sanatogen, which is a nerve food, you go to the very core of the complaint, you strengthen che nerve-fibres, revitalize the nerve-cells, you put new strength and health into nerves which now play such tricks on you.
"It is year since I felt so well and happy. I was full of pain and depression through indigestion arit nervous, but now through Sanctogen, the world and all that is in it is brighter and more_chaarful,TM

Start taking Sanatogen now and for you too the world will soon become a better and brighter place, you will feel healthy and strong again. Red cheeks and, a healthy appetite will show you what Sanatogen has done for you.
