ACID STOMACHS ARE DANGEROUS.
COMMON SENSE ADVICE BY A DISTINGUISHED SPECIALIST.
“Acid” stomachs are dangerous because acid irritates and inflames the delicate lining of the stomach, thus hindering and preventing the proper action of the stomach, and leading to nine-tenths of the cases of stomach trouble from which people suffer. Medicines and medicinal treatments are useless in such cases, for they leave the source of the trouble, the acid in the stomach, as dangerous as ever. The acid must be neutralised, and its formation prevented, and the best thing for this purpose is half a teaspoonful of bisurated- magnesia, a simple antacid, taken m a little warm or cold water after eating, which not only neutralises the acid, but also prevents the fermentation from which acidity is developed. Foods which ordinarily cause greatest distress can be eaten with impunity if the meal is followed with a little bisurated magnesia, which can be obtained of any chemist, and should always be' kept handy.
