FOOD PROBLEM

WITH GASTRITIS

For years, doctors wanted to find a food that would not ir- ritate the inflamed stomach walls of patients suffering from gas- tritis and that at the same time would rebuild the patient's strength, In severe cases of gas- tritis solid foods are out of the question, even liquid foods are often vomited. Yet the patient needs quick new, strength to re- build his exhausted body. In Horlicks, doctors and nurses have found an ideal food.

Where other foods are rejected, Horlicks is retained by the
