Night brought very little sleep. My back ached severe--13-, and often my joints were stiff. I was losing weight and badly discouraged. whop I read about Viuna and started taking it. I was never more surprised in my life than I was by the quick improvement in my ccndition. Today my digestion is perfect, without gas or pains. My backache is gone, joints arc all right again, and I am sleeping soundly and gaining weight.
