(1 I Don’t Feel Just Right, Doc.” (The Common Way of Describing Acidity) You're not sick, yet not well. Your stomach isn’t just right, you don't sleep well and you tire easily. Your color isn't what it should be and you probably look drawn. A sort of vague, run-down feeling is one of the first symptoms of acidity. Acidity is due to our unnatural eat- ing, our irregular hours and other ex- cesses. The excess acid upsets diges- tion and causes putrefaction and | fermentation in the gastro-intestinal | canal. | headaches, | ‘This frequently results in sick dizzy spells, “nerv mental depression and general lassi- tude. A remarkable new corrective of acidity has been developed by a fa- mous 100 - year - old pharmaceutical house in Germany. ‘This new, improved magnesia comes in the form of small, white tablets, called Magnesia Oxolds, which do not have to be chewed, but may be swal- lowed whole. Magnesia Oxoids, upon contact with the acid in the stomach, generate nascent, or active oxygen. Now, active oxygen, as any doctor will tell you, when generated within the digestive tract d just the things required for acidity. 1t stimulates the secretion of the alkaline mucus. It checks the putrefaction and fermen- tation in the gastro-intestinal canal. It stimulates the activities of the in- testinal walls and aids the natural movement of the bowels. All three effects are necessary to the true relief of acidity and Mag- nesia Oxolds supply them in a per- fectly natural manner.
