YOU have rheumatic twinges. The
urine gets cloudy. full of sediment. the
channels often get sore and irritated
oblging you to seek relief two or three
times during the night
To neutralize these irritating acids,

of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here: :
take a tablespoonful in a glass OF
water before breakfast for a few days
and Your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
