Impossible to be Well It is impossible to be well, simply impossible, if the bowels are constipated. You must pay attention to the laws of nature, or suffer the consequences.

A sluggish liver is responsible for an immense amount of suffering and serious disease. Ask I your doctor about Ayer's Fills. He knows why they act jidirectly on the liver. Trust him. JC AutrTa.
