'Since taking Kalzana

My NERVES are much STEADIER than they were before"

Kalzana is a remark- able food containing no drugs whatsoever.

In hot countries one's diet and the extent to which one perspires tend to decrease the mineral contents of the body. Many complaints such as irritability, high blood pressure, dizziness, acidity, which are so often ascribed to "the climate" are due largely to this loss of minerals.

When you do not feel as well as you should, start · taking Kalzana tablets. They will soon put you right.
