in me. I heard people talking about
this wonder medicine and finally I
a hearty meal and not have any of
the old gas, pain or bloating. It
helped my kidneys wonderfully, too.
The back-ache is all gone and I
sleep fine all night. I am rid Of the
dizziness and headaches, and the
constipation is greatly relieved. I
feel well and strong ill over, and
it is simply wonderful to be in good
