BRAIN FOOD

Is OF Little Benefit Unless it is Digested.
Nearly everyone will admit that as a
nation we eat too much meat and too
little of vegetables and the grains.
For business men, office men and
clerks, and in fact everyone engaged in
sedentary or indoor occupations, grains,
milk and vegetables are much more
healthfuk
Only men engaged In a. severe, out
door manual labor can live on heavy
meat diet and continue in health.
