n ERUNA is not recommended as a
remedy for rheumatism. Yet It
frequently happens that Peruna
relieves rheumatism when other RENE
dies fail
The explanation Is as follows. Rheu-
matism is the direct result Of uric
acid pOisons in the blood. Urates are
often the result OF imperfect digestion.
The food sours in the stomach instead
OF digesting, forms acids which are
absorbed into the blood and cause
ri eumatism.
Peruna restores digestion to perfect
order. In this way the supply Of uric
acid poisons is cut off, and the system
soon clears itself Of them. The patient
finds himself free from rheumatism.
simply because Peruna has restored
his digestion to a normal condition.
In this way Peruna frequently relieves
rheumatic subjects.
The accompanying testimonials are a
fair illustration OF this class Of cases.
