Strengthen your body against Feverish Diseases
The chance of catching malaria and other fever- ish diseases is far greater, if the power of resist ance is lowered. Lack of minerals in the body usually causes this lowering. Tiredness, heart troubles, irritability and dizziness are signs that your power of resistance is below par. Prevent serious trouble by taking Kalzana tablets regularly. Kalzana replenishes the mineral content of the body and blood cells in a perfectly natural way, strengthens the whole system, and so prevents serious infectious diseases, such as malaria, skin rashes, etc. Á grateful Kalzana user, Mr. E. B., writes:
"I have suffered from very bad nervous headaches for 10 years and after having laken Kalzana I feel as fit as a fiddle.'
