IF FOOD DISAGREES DRINK HOT WATER. When food lies like lead in the stomach, and you have that uncomfortable, distended feeling, it is because of insufficient bloed supply to the stomach, combined with acid and food fermentation. In such cases try the plan now followed in many hospitals, and advised by eminent specialists, of taking half a teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia in half a glass of water as hot as you can comfortably drink it. The hot water draws the Wood to the stomach, and the bisurated magnesia, as any chemist or physician will tell you. instantly neutralises the acid and stops the food fermentation. Try this simple plan, and you will be astonished at the immediate feeling of relief and comfort that always follows the restoration of the normal process of digestion. But be sure you ask the chemist very distinctly for bisurated magnesia, thus avoiding confusion with the sulphates, oxides and citrates, or bismuth and magnesia mixtures, which are often unsuitable. Soldiers at the front and travellers who are frequently obliged to take hasty meals, poorly prepared, should always take two or three five-grain tablets of bisurated magnesia after meals, to prevent fermentation and neutralise the acid.
