*Great, feeling fine! Things really might be better but life is not so bad after all.”

*You have changed! The other day you

"Oh that! Yes! I didn't feel so well a few weeks ago, I felt pretty bad-nervous, no appetite and so on. But Samatogen made a wonderful difference. In a few weeks time all the old energy came back. It's a glorious thing to be thoroughly healthy, in fact, it makes you feel young again"

Sanatogen infuses into the cells of blood and nerves exactly those elements-phos- phorus and albumin-from which bodily health and nerve-strength are derived. In the Medical Edo of Jan. 1926, a physician describes how be tested Sanatogen on 5 medical students: "In a fortnight thir physical and mental energy increased by an average of 23%- Soma of Lheir commenti un Sans-agen were amusing, ach ar Ares jog-kilin — brain-jongst -and-e reel grey-matter ion/c."
