HOW TO GET HID
OF DTSPEPSM
' Don't R«ly on Medicine; Don't Go on
Fr»ak Diet; Common Sense and
an Antacid Usually All That
Are Needed
i "If you have dyspepsia. Indigestion,
sour stomach, belching, distress after
j eating, heartburn or any other stomach I
I trouble due to hyperacidity (the usual I
cause of stomach troubles), you should
take no medicine to act upon the stom
ach itself. That Is not the
way to cure the trouble. Again, you
should not half starve yourself by RO
liik without the nutritious food that
you ileed to rebuild waste tissues. Some
foods aTe not good for people even
wlien in perfect healtlf— very rich,
sweet, highly seasoned dishes. Avoid
these, hut eat fairly substantial meals
of plain foods, Eal slowly. Even If
j you drink nothing but water, you
sho.dd not drink with meals. Drink
before and after .eating. Do not take
pepsin or other artificial digestants. If
you follow the foregoing simple In
structions it Is probable that you will
nut need any medicine at all except. If
you want to call it medicine, a little
antacid after meals. The best antacid
, Is ordinary bisurated magnesia, which
; ciyi be purchased at any drug store,
rhis is not to act upon the stomach
hut on the contents of tile stomach.
: The antacid, as you can learn by con-
I'sulting your dictionary or eneyclope
-1 dia, is merely to neutralize or counter
t act the exccs3 acid so the stomach can •
digest the food normally. Take a tea
spoonful of bisurated magnesia In a lit
! tie cold or hot water after each nffal.
You should get immediate relief, even
lif your case Is severe. Careful, mod
; erate eating and the use of bisurated
j magnesia should put your stomach in
; normal condition in a short time: if you
1 have not allowed dysjiepsia |o advance
1 to the extreme stage of developing
1 stomach ulcers.—Adv.
