THE POST DISCOVERY
A Revelation in human Food.

Previous TO the discovery of the Post
process of changing the starchy part of
Wheat and Barley into form of sugar.
many people suffered from what Is
known as starchy indigestion.
That was shown by gas and all sorts
of stomach and bowel trouble. (some-
times ending in appendicitis) brought on
by the undigested starch in wheat, oats,
white bread. cake, puddings, etc. etc.
Nature ultimately Furnishes anyone
who continually takes some medicine or
drug to smooth over or nulIify bad con-
ditions Of the body. The only safe way
to cure such is 10 correct or remove the
cause Therefore, it was plain TO Mr.
Post. in worSing out his discovery, that
people Who show some weakness in di-
gestins the starchy part of food, (which
IS much the largest part of all we eaD
must be helped by having the starch di-
gested or transformed before being eat
en-. And. of course, the sdfest f,nd truest
way to do this would be to initiate ma
tUre and avoid all chemicals or outside
ana unnatural things. The body digests
the starchy food by the following pro-
cess: first it IS mixed with the moisture
or juices Of the mouth and stomach
then warmth OF mild heat from the body
grows or develops diastase from the
grain Time is also an important eIe-
ment, an6 when all work together and
the human organs operate properly the
starch is SLOWLY turned into form of
sugar. as il must be before the blood
will absorb IL and carry the needed en-
ergy tc different parts OF the body. OF
course II the body fails 20 do its work
perfectly trouble sets in
So IN the making of the famous food.
Grape Nuts. moisture, warmth and time
are the only things used TO turn starch
into sugar. thus initiating nature and
keeping the human food in original
purity. free from outside things and just
as Mother Nature intends il shall be
kept for advantageous use by ier CHI
dren The food is fully cooked at the
factories. and is crisp and delicious with
a little thick cream poured over
1t can be softened for people with
weak teeth, but is most valuable to
nthers when it must be energetically
cbewed. thus bringing down the saliva
from the gums to go 70 the stomach

the use of the teeth strengthens and pre-
serves them. Nature flesses tie parts of
