ACID IN STOMACH
SOURS THE FOOD
Says Excess of HydroChIoriC
Acid is Cause of Indigestion,

A well-known authority states
that stomach trouble and indiges-
ton are nearly always due to acid
ity-acid stomach-and not. as
IT ost folks believe, from a lack of
digestive juices. He states that an
excess of hydrochloric acid in the
stomach retards digestion and
starts food fermentation, then our
meals sour like garbage in can,
forming acrid fluids and gases
which initiate the stomach like a
toy balloon. We then get that
feavy lumpy feeling in the chest,
we eructate sour food, belch gas,
or have heartburn. flatulence,
waterbrash, or nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all di-
gestive aids and instead, get from
any pharmacy four ounces of Jad
Salts and take a tablespoonful in
a glass of water before breakfast
while 1t is effervescing, and fur
thermore. to continue this for one
week. While relief follows the first
dose, it is important to neutralize
the acidity. remove the gas-making
mass, start the liver. stimulate the
kidneys and thus promote free
flow of pure digestive juices!
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is
n ade from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia
and sodium phosphate. This harm
less salts is used by thousands of
people for stomach trouble with
excellent results. ....
