For the last 20 years l had been
suffering with my stomach. / had a
poor appetite and it seemed like the
little food | did eat would not digest
but would lay Mt the pit of my
stomach and cause pain through my
stomach and back. Ny stomach was
often in a soured condition and gas
would form and | would bloat bad
ly. Besides this stomach trouble, I
also suffered from sluggish liver
and was constipated and nervous and
always felt drowsy and languid in
mornings.
81 tried about every medicine
ever heard of in my attempts to get
relief but l want to say that Plant
Juice did me more good than any,
thinn I L.
taken Plant Juice, ! have a fine
appetite and all my food seems to
digest properly so that l do not
suffer with my stomach or have gas
or bloating as I did before. The
constipation has been relieved so
that my bowels are regular as clock
work; nerves are improving right
along and l am gaining, weight and
feel stronger and. in short. am 100
per cent better in every way than
| have been for a long time"
