"For several years." continued Mrs.
Vullota, II have suffered with my stom-
ach. I got so couldn't eat anything
but what would sour, and the gas
would rise up into my chest and throat
and almost choke me. l suffered ter
ribly with headaches and was very
weak and nervous. managed to keep
going by force Of will but more than
half of the time was barely able to
drag myself around. took every kind
of medicine that was recommended to
me, but kept getting worse until l al
most lost hope Of finding anything that
would help me.
Honestly l don't know the time l
ever weighed over a hundred pounds
until began taking Tanlac. 1t may
be hard to believe, but it's the truth.
I now weigh one hundred and thirty
pounds-having gained thirty pounds
and If anyone could feel like a new
person I do. em no longer bilious or
constipated and my awful headaches
are broken up. My appetite is splen-
did and I can eat anything I want
without it hurting me in the least. My
nerves are quiet now. I sleep sound
ly every night and as I said before.
I'm feeling stronger and better than
I have in years."
