Some people are thin and always re

The digestion of fa t Is m ainly, If not

digestive fluids of the stomach passing
down Into the duodenum, destroys
the pancreatic finid for digestive pur
poses. Therefore, the fats are not di
gested or emulsified, and the system Is
deprived of its doe proportion of oily

thin.
The beginning of the trouble is a ca
