ACID STOMACHS NEED MAGNESIA
Drugs may give temporary reliei from the pain which usually results from an excess of acid in the stomach,-but drugs do not eliminate the acid, and in consequence the oain returns —worse than before. To effect a cure you must first eliminate the acid which is the cause of all the- trouble, and a sure way to accomplish this is to take a little bisurated magnesia after your meals., This quickly neutralises the harmful acid : prevents the food turning . sour and fermenting, soothes and hep Is the inflamed stomach and enables you to again eat and enjoy the foods you fancy, secure in the knowledge that no pain or discomfort will result. Of course it will be understood that ordinary forms of magnesia, such as the citrates or sulphates, will not accomplish these happy results, neither will crude mixtures of bismuth and magnesia. You must get the bisurated magnesia, which is a form prepared specially for use in cases of digestive and stomach, trouble. This can readily be obtained of high-class chemists everywhere in both powder and tablet form, the latter being especially suitable for travellers and others compelled to take meals away from home.
