I "I was unconscious for three days, and after that I would have fainting spells, dizziness, nervousness, sick headache, heart palpitation and many strange feelings. "I suffered greatly with ailments due to the change of life and had 3 doctors, but they did no good, so I concluded to try Cardui. "Since taking Cardui, I am so much better and can do all my housework." mCARDUI j 41 The Woman's Tonic Do not allow yourself to get into a bad fix. You might get in so bad you would find it hard to get out.
