PHOTO OF NERVE CELLS SEEN THROUGH MICROSCOPE,

Conquer "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 Sanategen, which is a nerve food, you go to the very core of the complaint, you strengthen the nerve-fibres, revitalize the nerve-cells, you put new strength and health into nerves which now play such tricks on you.

"It a year since I felt so well and happy. I was full of pain and depression through indigestion and nervousness, but now through Sanatogen, the world' and all that is in it is brighter and mors_chezsful,”. Bo wrote a lady-user who had taken Sanatogen for six weeks.

Start taking Sanutogen 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.
