Acid dyspepsia. commonly called heart
burn or sour stomach, is form of indiges-
ton resulting from fermentation OF the
food. The stomach being too weak to
promptly digest It, the food remains until
fermentation begins. filling the stomach
with gas, and o bitter. sour, burning taste
in the mouth is often present. This condi-
tion soon becomes chronic. and being an
everyday occurrence is given but little
attention. Because dyspepsia is not i'm.
mediately fatal, many people do nothing
for the trouble.
