the milk to the bottom of the dish. Ihep
this milk charged with Post Sugar is fed
to the infants producing the most salts
factory results, for the baby has fooG
that it can digest quickly and will go or
to sleep well fed and contented.
When baby gets two or three months
old it is the custom of some mothers to
allow the Grape-Nuts to soak in the
milk a little longer and become mushy,
whereupon a little of the food can be fed
in addition to the milk containing the
washed off sugar.
1t is by no NEAR manufactured for a
baby food, but these facts are stated as
an illustration of a perfectly d!gestiblo
food.
1t furnishes the energy and strength
for the great athletes. 1t Is in common
use by physicians in their W families
and among their patients, and can be
seer on the table of every frst-"'asg
college in the land.
We quote from the London L*nce'
analysis as follows:
THE basis of nomenclature of this
preparation is evidently an American,
pleasantly, since 'Grape-NutS' IL derived
solely from cereals. The preparatory
process undoubtedly converts che food
constituents into a much more digestlble
condition than in the raw cereal. This
is evident from the remarkable solubil.
ity of the preparation, no less than one
half Of it being soluble in cold water.
The soluble part contains chiefly dextrin
and no starch. In appearance Grape
Nuts resembles fried bread-crumbs. The
grains are brown and crisp, with a pleas
ant taste not unlike slightly burnt malt.
According to our analysis the following
is the composition of 'Grape-Nuts:'
Moisture, 6.02 per cent; mineral matter.
POI per cent; fat, 1.6O per cent; proteids,
1900 per cent; soluble carbohydrates,
etc., 1910 per cent; and unaltered car
%bohydrates (nsoluble), 25.97 per e
Thefeatures worthy o. note in this analy-
sis are the excellent proportion of pro-
ted, mineral matters, and soluble car
bohydates per cent. The mineral matter
was rich in phosphoric acid. Grape
Nuts is described as a brain and nerve
food, whatever that may be. Our analy-
sis, at any rate, shows that it is g nutri-
tive of a high order, since it contains the
constituents Of a complete food in very
satisfactory and rich proportion and in
an easily assimilable state"
An analysis made by the Canadian
Government some time ago shows that
Grape-Nuts contains nearly ten times
the digestible elements contained in or
binary cereals, and foods, and nearly
twice the amount contained in any other
food analysed.
The analysis is familiar to practically
every successful physician in America
and London.
