Excess fat is a disease. 1t is caused by
imperfect assimilation of food. Nutri-
ment which should go into muscle, sinew,
bone, brain and nerve does not go there,
but piles up in the form of superfiuous
fat, which clogs the human machinery
and congresses the vital organs of the
body and endangers health and life.
My new Obesity Food, taken at meal
time, compels perfect assimilation of the
food and sends the food nutriment where
it belongs. 1t requires no starvation pro-
cess You can eat all you want. 1t makes
muscle, bone, sinew, nerve and brain
tissue out of excess fat, and quickly re-
duces your weight to normal. 1t takes off
the big stomach and relieves the COM
pressed condition and enables the heart
to act freely and the lungs to expand
naturally and the kidneys and liver to
perform their functions in a natural
manner.
My natural, scientific Obesity Food does
the work. You will feel better the first
day you try this wonderful home food
