"Seven years ago I began suffer

gas on my stomach and pressed on
my heart and it palpitated so badly
I could hardly breathe. My nerves
were so bad the least noise upset me,
and a good night's sleep was impos
sible. I was also seriously consti

"But since taking Tanlac I have

to do my housework now.- I think
Tanlac simply is a grand medicine."
