Eat What
You want of the food. you need
Kodol will digest it.

You need a sufficient amount Of
good wholesome food and more than
this you need to fully digest 1t.
Else you can't gain strength, nor
can you strengthen your stomach II
tt is weak.
You must eat in order to hEea and
maintain strength,
You must not diet, because tho
body requires that you eat a sufiac-
tent amount of food regularly.
But this food must be digested,
and it must be digested thoroughly.
When the stomach can't do it,
you must take something that will
help the stomach.
The proper way to do IS to eat
what you want, and let Kodol d.
gest the food.
Nothing else can do this. When
the stomach is weak it needs help;
you must help it by giving it rest,
and Kodol will do that.
