HOW TO NEUTRALISE DANGEROUS STOMACH ACIDS. Few people besides physicians realise the importance of keeping the "ood ontents of the stomach free from acid fermentation. Healthy normal digestion cannot take place while the delicate lining of thf stomach is being inflamed and distended by 'acid and wind—tlio results of fermenting food in Jie stomach. To secure perfect digestion, fermentation must be stopped or prevented, and the acid neutralised. For th' purpose physicians iißually recommend gettir a little bisurated magnesia from the chemist, and caking half a teaspoonful in a little hot .:ater immediately after eating. They recommend bisurated magnesia because it is pleasant to take, has no after-effects, and quickly stops fermentation, neutralises the ac.a and makes the sour acid food bland, sweet and easily digested. The regular use of bisurated magnesia—be sure you get the bisurated magnesia, as other kinds of magnesia are not so 7aluable —is a guarantee of her' thy, normal digestion, for it overcom and prevents that acid conditio: which alone i: the cause of trouble.
