Sour Stomach
Back up a sewer, and you poison the whole neighborhood. Clog up liver and bowels, and your stomach is
full of undigested food, which sours and ferments, like garbage in a swill-barrel. That’s the first step to untold
misery — indigestion, foul gases, headache, furred tongue, bad breath, yellow skin, mental fears, everything that
is horrible and nauseating. CASCAREIS quietly, positively stop fermentation in the stomach, make the liver
lively, tone up the bowels, set the whole machinery going and keep it in order.
Don t hesitate!
