Use Kodol and prevent having Dyspepsia. Everyone is subject to Indigestion. Stomach derangement follows stomach abuse, just as naturally and just as surely as a sound and healthy stomach results upon the taking of Kodol. When you experience sourness of etomach, belching of gas and nauseating fluid, bloated sensation, gnawing pain In the pit of the stomach, heart burn (so-called), diarrhoea, headaches, dullness or chronic tired feeling?you need Kodol. And then the quicker you take Kodol?the better. Eat what you want, let Kodol digest it.
