PEPSINOL Will Correct Causes

You rolled and tossed resuessiy all

in your mouth. Your breath was sour.
How many times has this happened:
Are you going to wait until you get

get Pepsinol and let it correct the
digestive faults that arc wrecking your
nerves and thinning your blood?
Pepsinol acts directly on the causes of
stomach trouble. 1t insures complete
digestion and the assimilation of all
the food that creates strength, blood,
nerves and tissues. Its use will keep
your brain and body healthy, your
nerves calm and steady.
