DOCTOR SAYS
Finds Grape Nuts Food Invaluable in
His Practice.

A physician first healed himself with
food. Then he healed others, and tells
his story i'll q straightforward, bust
like way:
For q long time" he writes. II was
unable to assimilate comfortably any
ordinary or prepared breakfast foods
Nearly everything disagreed with me,
bringing on heavy headaches, a bad
taste in the mouth, and a dullness of
mind that was not only unpleasant but
intcrfered with active mental work
Since beginning the use of Grape Nuts
food some months ago, however, these
troubles have vanished and breakfast is
relished and enjoyed as it ought to be-
Il find. too, that 4 small quantity of
Grape Nuts and cream eaten Just be-
fore starting out to visit patients at
night prevents the feeling of depression
that used to result from this extra
exertion and loss of sleep.
MY wife suffered for several months
from recurring attacks of Indigestion
with fermentation-she would be very
miserable for days at a time and al
most any kind of food added to the
trouble. She found by experiment that
obtained in Il very short time. even
when ordinary remedies for Indigestion
had failed to help her.
Mrs. James S., patient Of mine.
suffered with sympathetic heart trouble
and a stomach so deranged that it re-
jecttd all food. Her strength was rap
idly failing from lack of nourishment.
recommended the use of Grape Nuts
with cream every or hours. The
food proved at once acceptable to her
stomach and her recovery to perfect
health speedily followed.
Il have found Grape-Nuts an excel
lent food for patients convalescing from
exhausting fevers as typhoid and
pneumonia, and always recommended
its use by such. 1t is admirably suited
TO these cases. not only because it is
easily digested. but because of the
great amount of nourishment it con-
tains Its use rapidly restores vitality
and strength" Name given by Postum

Why? Because when any other organ
