Due to insufficient flow of gastric juices, eve y meal I ate caused gas bloating that nearly choked m. sometimes .and I was so nervous I hardly eyer got a good night's sleep. My appetite dwindled away, and I felt so terribly weak and inn down I could hardly get about and no medicine I tried helped nie a bit. Then I started taking Retonga and began feeling better right away. 1 eat heartily now without distress. I sleep good and I feel fine. Retonga is grand.” Retonga is a purely vcge’able stomachic medicine intended to increase the flow of gastric juices in the stomach and help nature remove toxic wastes from the bowels.
