Bad Stomach Caused Fearful-Suffering Was Bloated, Nervous, Sleepless and Dizzy. Entirely Well Now. “I suffered with a breakdown five years ago. It just seemed as if everything was the matter with me. I had blood pressure, a bad stomach, constipation, and I was so nervous'l would just shake. Lcould not sleep at night. My nerves just jumped. My stomach would bloat and cramp and the gas would press back my heart till I thought maybe I had organic heart trouble. My bowels would hardly move even with a laxative, and never without one. I had dizzy spells and would stagger and almost fall. I did not have any appetite, aad what I did eat wouldn’t stay down. I tried different medicines, but only got a little relief. Then hearing from friends about Viuna, I started taking it. Right from the first it helped me, and now I feel fine, as good as I ever did in my life. I eat anything and everything, have a good appetite, my bowels are in good shape, my nervousness is practically gone. I am a man 70 years of age, and if Viuna helps everyone like it has me, it sure is wonderful.”—Alexander Black, Gaston, Ind.
