"Oh that! Yes! I didn't feel so well a few weeks ago. I felt pretty bad--nervous, no appetite and so on. But Sanatogen 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 Echo of Jan. 1926, a physician describes how be tested Sinatogen on 5 medical students:

In such a case he would be likely to attain to at least the same degree of spirituality as the fakir of the East, or the prophet of ancient times,"
