ACID STOMACHS ARE DANGEROUS.
COMMON SENSE ADVICE BY A DISHNG UISHKD SPECIALIST. i “Acid” stomalhs are dangerous because acid irritates and inflames the delicate lining o lift ho stomach, thus hindering and preventing the. proper action of the stomach? and leading to nineten t'bs of the Cpse-s of stomach trouble from which ppoplet suffer. Medicines and medical treatments are useless in such cases, air they leave the. source of the trouble the acid in the stomach, as d;nigerou|| as ever. The acid must be neutralist, and its formation prevented, nnd.Jtho best thing for this purpose is half! a’ teaspoonful of hisurat.ed magnesia, jS| simple antacid, taken in a little warm'; or cold water after -eating, which not 'finly -neutralises the acid; but also prevents the 1 fermentation from which acidity is developed. Foods which ordinarilyfcauso greatest distress can bo oaten witljj impunity if the meal is. followed with a little bisurate-d magnesia', which can bo obtained of any chemist, and should always be kept handy.
