Gases in Stomach
Poison the Blood

Gas forms in your stomach because
the food you eat ferments and turns
sour.
Allow this fermentation to go on
and these gases become poisonous and
the poison gets into the blood.
MI-o-NA stomach tablets stop the
fermentation almost instantly, turn
the poisonous gases into liquid, and
eliminates the poison mostly through
the kidneys.
If you have any stomach trouble,
such as gas, sourness, heaviness, fiat
ulency or shortness of breath, MILO
MA will give gratifying relief in five
minutes.
