Purify the Blood

Purify the Blood

medicine, blood

This blood purifier called Cuticera Resolvent is the only blood purifier that forever eradicated the virus of inherited and contagious blood poisons. These blood poisons include Bad Blood Scrofulous, inherited and contagious with loss of hair, glaudular swellings, ulcerous patches in the throat and mouth, abscesses, tumors, sores, blotches, chronic rheumatism, wasting of the kidneys and urinary organs; speedily recovered by the blood purifier. This is sold by any chemists and Francis Newbery and Sons. Like many other health advertisements, Purify the Blood is trying to provide medicinal help to the consumers in order to have a healthy self. What is interesting, is that I have never heard of such a thing before seeing this advertisement. It's interesting to see how people handled diseases and health problems during this time, and the Purify the Blood is a great example of this.
