Many people with weak digestion. as
well as some physicians, consider the
first step TO take in attempting 70 cure
indigestion IS TO restrict the diet, either
by selecting certain foods and reject
ing others or to cut down the amount of
food eaten to barely enough to keep soul
and body together. IN other words. the
starvation plan is by many supposed TO
be the first essential.
All this is radically wrong. It is foolish
and unscientific to recommend dieting to
a man already suffering from starvation
because indigestion itself starves every
organ, nerve and fibre in the body.
What people with poor digestion most
need is abundant nutrition, plenty OF
good, wholesome, properly cooked food.
and something to assist the weak
stomach to digest 1t.
This is exactly the purpose for which
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are adapted
and the true reason why they cure the
worst cases OF stomach trouble.
Eat a sufficient amount OF wholesome
food and after each meal take one Or two
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets to promptly
digest it.
In this way the system is nourished
and the overworked stomach rested, be-
cause the tablets will digest the food
whether the stomach works or not, one
grain of the active digestive principle in
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets being suffi-
Gent TO digest 1900 grains of meat, eggs
or other albuminous food.
Dr.. Harlandson and DR.. RedweI rec
ommend these tablets in all cases CT de-
fective digestion because the pepsin and
diastase in them are absolutely free from
animal matter and other impurities, and
being pleasant to the taste are as safe
and harmless for the child as for the
adult.
All drug stores sell this excellent prep
aration, and the daily use Of them after
meals Will be Of great benefit, not only
as an immediate relief but TO permanently
build up and invigorate the digestive
organs.
