HOW
YOU LIVE TO
BE 100?
AR of ys aye interested, jn long life,
ana many are the recipes for it. A
daily pint of beer—no beer— smoking
—no smoking—hefty beefsteaks—no
meat—every centenarian has a dif
ferent tale to tell. There is, how
ever, just one poipt on which all
doctors agree-—that no man or
woman ever reached extreme old.
age without q healthy colon.
It is impossible to have a healthy
colon if you are the victim of consti-^
pation. Waste matter stagnating in
thy intestines sets up toxjc poisons,
which seep into your bloodstream,
and cause lingering ill-health. The
main cause of constipation is lack of
moisture in your large bowel. Relief
comes only when that moisture can
be induced to return.
What Kruschen does
Kruschen contains several mineral
salts, which are blended in exactly
the right proportion, to bring back
moisture to the large bowel, They
stimulate the organs of evacuation
to smooth, gentle action. At the
same time, Kruschen has a diuretic action which helps to flush your
kidneys and liver, and assists in ridding your bloodstream of the
poisons which previous constipation
left behind.
Naturally, the amount of Krus
chen required to clear up a stubborn . case of constipation depends on the
individual. But once health and
spirits have been regained, the dose
should be reduced to just enough
. to cover a dime, first thing every
morning.
You can buy Kruschen from any
drug store—•S&e and 75c,
