Healthy Appetite
by taking
Sanatogen
LACK of appetite is mostly
due to stomach trouble. which in turn is usually a question of "nerves" Nerve weakness prevents the proper functioning of the stomach and intestines and it is only by strengthening the weakened nerves that you can restore the proper functioning of the digestive organs and so, in â logical way, regain a healthy appetite.
Every particle of Sanatogen will actually help to restore lost nervous vitality, because Sanniogen pro- vides the nerve cells with phosphorus and albumin — the building materials of nervous energy.
