GAS

When air enters the stomach,you get gas.It can occur from drinking through a straw,drinking carbonated water or chewing gum.Your body may produce gas if you eat high-fiber foods such as beans,fruits and grains that pass into your intestine and ferment.Gas may result from gastrointestinal infections.If you have prolonged gas,see a doctor to rule out any infections.

BEET JUICE

This is one of the most valuable juices for helping to build red corpuscles of the blood and tone up the blood generally.Women particularly,have been benefited by drinking at least one pint of a combination of carrot and beet juice daily.The proportion in this combination may vary from 3 to 8 ounces of beet juice,using roots and tops,in one pint of the combined juices,carrot and beet.
 Taken alone,beet juice,in greater quantities than a wineglass at a time,may cause a cleansing reaction which will make one a little dizzy or nauseated.
  For menstrual disturbances beet juice has been very helpful,particularly when,during such periods,it has been used in small quantities,not more than a wine glass at a time( say,2 or 3 ounces)two or three times a day.During menopause this procedures has been found much more permanently helpful than the degenerative effects of drugs or synthetic hormones.
 After all,any drug or inorganic synthetic chemical product cannot possibly bring permanent relief but temporary relief.Any drug that can be guaranteed to relieve or cure permanently any sick condition of the body can also be guaranteed to start something serious or worse in the body some time later.
 It is the one who takes the drug that suffers in the long run,not those who advertise or administer it.
 After all is said and done,Nature has furnished us with natural means through which we may seek,energy,vigor and vitality.
