STOMACffTROUBLES DUE TO ACIDITY. , SO SAYS EMINENT . SPECIALIST. , So-called stomach troubles, such a$ indigestion, wind,, stomach-ache and inability to retain food, instead of indicating that the stomach is out of order, are in nine cases out of ten simply evidence that fermentation is taking place in the food contents of the stomach, causing. the formation of gas and acids. Wind distends the stomach, and causes that full, oppressive feeling sometimes known as heartburn, while the acid irritates and inflames the delicate lining of the stomach. The stomach, however, is not at fault. The trouble lies entirely in the fermenting food. Such fermentation is unnatural, and acid formation is not only unnatural but may involve, the most serious consequences if not prevented. To prevent or stop fermentation of the food contents of the stomach, and to neutralise the acid, and render it bland and harmless, half a teaspoonful df bisurated magnesia, probably the best and most effective antacid known, should be taken in a quarter of a glass of hot or cold water immediately after eating, or whenever wind or acidity is felt. This stops the: fermentation, and neutralises the acidity in a few moments. Fermentation, wind and acidity me dangerous and unnecessary. Stop or prevent them by the use of a proper antacid, such as bisurated magnesia, which can be obtained from any chemist, and thus enable the stomach to do its work properly without being hindered by poisonous gas and dangerous acids M.F.P.
