HOW TO NEUTRALISE DANGEROUS STOMACH ACIDS. Few people besides physicians realise the importance of keeping t'lie food contents of the stomach free from acid fermentation. Tlealtliy normal digestion cannot take place while the delicate lining of the stomach is being inflamed and distended by acid, and wind—the results of fermenting food in the stomach. To secure perfect digestion, fermentation must be stopped or prevented, and the acid neutralised. For this purpose physicians , usually recommend getting a little bisurated magnesia from the chemist and taking half a teaspoonful in a little hot or cold watei immediately after eating. They .recommend bisurated magnesia because it is pleasant to take, has no disagreeable after-effects, and Instantly stops fermentation neutralises the acid and makes the sour acid food bland, sweet and easily digested. The regular use of bisurated magnesia —be sure you get tile "bisurated," as other kinds of magnesia are of little value—is an absolute' guarantee of healthy, normal digestion, for it overcomes and preventp that acid condition which alone is the cause of trouble.
