"I suffered from a bad form of
liver trouble and general weakness.
I was troubled a lot with a dizzy,

"My complexion had become yellow,
my tongue was coated and my
breath was bad, and I had 'that lazy
feeling' all the time. Really, 1 never
did feel well*, but I was weak and
tired and worn out continually. My
food did not digest well and my
meals felt like a brick in my stom*ch.
and it seemed that they nourish?d
me little or none at all.

gained eight pounds as a result of
taking the Tanlac. and now 1 am in
good health and I am not troubled
with any of those ailments 1 had.
That is what Tanlac did for me. It
banished my troubles. The Tanlac
gave me a fine appetite, cleared up
my skin, the coating left my tongue
and I was soon free of indigestion.
