SAFEST FOOD
In Any Time of Trouble Is Grape-Nuts

Food to rebuild the strength and
that is pre- digested must be selected
when one is convaiescent. At this
time there is nothing so valuable as
Grape-Nuts for the reason that this
food is all nourishment and is also all
digestible nourishment. A woman
who used it says:
Some time ago was very i'll with
typhoid fever, so i'll everyone thought
would die, even myself. 1t left me
so weak l could not properly digest
food of any kind and also had much
bowel trouble which left me a weak,
helpless wreck.
Il needed nourishment as badly as
anyone could, but none of the tonics
helped me until finally tried Grape
Nuts food morning and evening. This
not only supplied food that l thought
delicious as could be but it also made
me perfectly well and strong again so
can do all my housework, sleep well.
can eat anything without any trace of
bowel trouble and for that reason
alone Grape-Nuts food is worth its
weight in gold" Name given by
Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
Typhoid fever like some other dis
eases attacks the bowels and frequent
ly sets up bleeding and makes them
Tor months incapable of digesting the
starches and therefore pre- digested
Grape-Nnts is invaluable for the we'll
known reason that in Grape-Nuts all
the starches have been transformed
into grape sugar. This means that the
hrst stage of digestion has been n. e.
chanically accomplished in Grape-Nuts
food at the factories and therefore
anyone, no matter how weak the stou-
ach, can handle it and grow strong.
Tor all the nourishment is still there.
There's a sound reason and 10 days
trial proves.
