Kodol is liquid, like the diges-
tive juices. 1t acts the moment
you take it.
The pain ends, irritation stops,
the food is completely digested-
That is not true of other diges-
tiers, for they rely largely on pep
sin.
Pepsin digests albumen perfect
ly, but that is all 1t can do.
Starch, fats and phosphates
form most of your food. Pepsin
can't digest those.
And it can't do bowel digestion.
Yet half Of digestion is done by
the bowel fluids.
It requires many ingredients to
make perfect digester, and Kodol
contains them all.
1t digests any food-any mixture
of foods-completely.
It does all that the stomach
does-all that the bowels do.
You can see it do this in test
tube, under proper conditions. You
can feel what 1t does in the stom-
ach. There can be no doubt about
1t.
