How KALZANA acts---

Your body is buik up of millions of living cells, the vital part of which is dependent upon Calcium for its Health. Any shortage of Calcium weakens the whole constitution and causes disturbances in the functions of the internal organs, resulting in undue pains and excessive loss. Kalzana con- tains the extra calcium needed to overcome Calcium-deficiency -the root of your trouble-and so, in a natural way, will quickly bring you back to real, carefree health again.

"Kalzana is of great value in the treatment of menorrhagia and dysmenorrhea (undus lon and pains).

writes the well-knowm medical paper “Modical Pros and Circular.”
