HEAVY MEAT EATERS
HAVE SLOW KIDNEYS
But less meat if yea feel Backachy or
have bladder trouble -Take .
glass of Ealta
No nan or woman who exta meat repu
larly can make a mistake by flushing ths
kidneys occasionally, says a well-known
authority. Meat forms urio acid which
excites' the kidneys, they become over
worked from the strain, get sluggish snd
fail to filter the waste and poisons from
the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all
rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble,
oervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in te
kidneys or your back hurts or if the
urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi
ment, Irregular of passage or attended by
a sensation of scalding, atop eating meat
and get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any pharmacy; take a
tablespoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast and in a few days your kidney
will act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
the kidneys, also to neutralize the acids
in urine eo it no longer causes irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cennot
injure; makes a delightful effervesnt
lithia-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and ths blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
complications.
