MEMORY MENDING
What Food Alone Can Do for the Mem
ory

The influence of food upon the brain
and memory is so little understood that
people are inclined to marvel at it.
Take a person who has been living
on improperly selected food and put
him upon a scientific diet in which the
food of Grape-Nuts is largely used
and the increase of the mental power
that follows is truly remarkable.
A Canadian who was sent to Colo
RADIO for his health illustrates this
point in a most convincing manner:
"One year ago l came from Canada a
nervous wreck, so my physician said.
and reduced in weight to almost a
skeleton and my memory was so poor
that conversations had to be repeated
that had taken place only few hours
before. l was unable to rest day or
night for my nervous system was shat
tered.
The change of climate helped me a
little, but it was soon seen that it was
not all l needed. l required the prop
er selection of food although l did not
realize it until a friend recommended
Grape-Nuts to me and gave this food
a thorough trial. Then l realized what
the right food could do and 1 began to
change in my feelings and bodily con-
dition This kept up until now after
6 months use of Grape Nuts all my
nervous trouble has entirely disappear
ed, l have gained in flesh all that l
had lost and what is more wonderful
to me than anything else my memory
is as good as it ever was. Truly Grape
Nuts has re-made me all over, mind
and body, when l never expected to be
we'll and happy again." Name given
by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
There's a reason.
