Lime Against tuberculosis

In the May 25. 1872 issue of the Journal
of the American Medical Association ap-
peared this statement concerning calcium
dime) medication in the treatment Of
tuberculosis.
Under the systematic, continued and
persistent regime Of calcium assimilation,
Van Gieson has seen Il number of his pa
TENTS improve The sputum clears up
of tubercle bacilli, which finally disap-
pear and the patients are discharged
with healed pulmonary tuberculosis
Ethical Journals seldom speak so posi-
lively about a remedial agent. yet this
testimony coincides with that from many
consumptives who have secured like re-
suits through the use of Eckmans Alter
alive.
Since Calcium is a constituent of this
remedy, its healing power may be due
TO the way this element is so combined
with other valuable ingredients as to be
easily aSsimilated.
Eckman's Alternative contains no
opiates, narcotics or bit-forming drugs.
