MEAT CAUSE OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take a glass of Salts if your Back
hurts or Bladder bothers—Meat
forms uric acid.
Ts you miist have your meat every day, 1
eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts j
occasionally, says a noted authority who
tells us that, meat forms uric acid which
almost paralyzes the kidneys in their ef
forts to expel it from the blood. They
become sluggish and weaken, then you
suffer with a dull misery in the kidney
region, sharp pains in the hack or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach sours,
tongue is coated and when the weather
is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the
channels often get sore and irritated,
obliging you to seek relief two or three
time during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids, to
cleanse the kidneys atid flush off the
body’s urinous waste get four ounces of
Jal Salts from any pharmacy here;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then aet. fine. 'Jliie
famous salts is made f; om the acid of
grapes and lernon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for generationa
to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutralize the acids in urine,
so it no longer irritates, thus ending
bladder weakness
Tad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, and makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink.
