I could not digest my food and everything I ate caused the most agOnizing pain in my stomach. I also had a fearful attack of Constipation, and at timcs I had no movement of the bowels for two weeks. Three doctors attended me for two years and gave me all kinds of medicine but did me no good. My weight came down to onfy 80 pounds and everyone thought I was going to die. Finally I had the good fortune to buy ‘F ruit-a- tives’ and as soon as I began to take them, I felt better. I persisted in the reatment and to my great joy and to the astonishment of my friends. I improved. Now I feel very well, weigh I 15 pounds (and this is more than I ever weighed, even before my illnes) I attribute my cure solely to 'Fruit-a-tives’."
