How to Prevent
Acid Stomachs and
Food Fermentation
By a New York Physician
"My experience has forced me
to the conclusion that most peo
ple who complain of stomach
trouble possess stomachs that are
absolutely healthy and normal.
The real trouble, that which
causes all the pain and difficulty,
Is excessive acid in the stomach,
aggravated by food fermentation.
Hyperacidity Irritates the delicate
lining of the stomach abnormally,
causing that nil bloated feeling.
Thus both acid and fermentation
interfere with and retard the
process of digestion. The stomach
wall la usually healthy and nor
mal, but Irritated almost past en
durance by these foreign elements
—acid and wind. In all cases—
and they comprise a great major
ity of all stomach difficulties—
the first and only step necessary
is to neutralize the acid and stop
the fermentation by taking In a
little warm or cold water imme
diately after eating, from one to
two teaspoonfuls of bleu rated
magneela, which Is the most ef
fective antacid and food correct
ive I have ever found. The excess
acid will be neutralized md the
fermentation stopped almost In
stantly, and your stomach will at I
once proceed to digest the food
In a healtbly normal manner. Be
sure to aak your druggist for
blmirated magnesia rather than
magneela In any other form." |
