Highly of Fong Wan Herbs

Oakland, Calif.

All my life I have been a sufferer from excruciating pains in my legs and arms which came upon me at various times. I probably inherited the ailment from my mother, who was troubled in the same way throughout her lifetime.

A few years ago the pain became so severe and returned at such frequent intervals that I could take but little interest in my real estate business. I was very much discouraged when a personal friend took me to the FONG WAN HERBALIST.

I drank the tea prepared for me every day for two months, and I am now a new man. I feel very grateful to the Herbalist and cannot speak too highly of what the Herbs have done for me.
