A writien Digests what you Eat Dyspepsia Cure Many digestive compounds and tablets are recommended to cure dyspepsia by digesting food with the pepsin they contain, Most of these possess merit, but they all fail in many cases, bes cause pepsin digests only albuminous foods, such as eggs and meat. But we must eat more than eggs and meat; and some of the worst cases of dyspepsia are caused by indigestion of fatsand starches and other foods which pepsin cannot digest. There is one preparation that contains all the digestanta, 1t is Kopor Dysrepsia Cure, which digests what you eat, and has been used with remarkable success,— not a single failure to curo being reported from the many thousinds who have used it.
