We quote from the London Lancet
analysis as follows:
1.-The basis of nomenclature OF this
preparation is evidently an American
pleasantly, since 'Grape-Nuts' Is de.
rived solely from cereals. The prepares
tory process undoubtedly converts the
food constituents into q much more 81.
gestible condition than in the raw
cereal. This is evident from the n
markable solubility Of the preparations:
no less than one-halt Of It being soluble
in cold water. The soluble part con-
tains chiefly dextrin and no starch. In
appearance 'Grape-Nuts' resembles
fried bread-crumbs. The grains are
brown and crisp, with a pleasant taste
not unlike slightly burnt malt. ACCORD;
ing to our analysis the following IS the
composition of 'G~rape-Nuts: MOIST
ure, 6.O2 per cent; mineral matter, FOL
per cent; fat, 1.60 per cent; proteids.
1900 per cent; soluble carbohydrates,
etc., 1910 per cent; and unaltered
carbohydrates dnsoluble), 25.97 per
cent. The features worthy OF note In
this analysis are the excellent proper
ton Of proteid, mineral matters, and:
soluble carbohydrates per cent, lThes
mineral matter was rich in p~hospharic
acid. 'Grape-Nuts' is described az 9
brain and nerve food, whatever that
may be. Our analysis, at any rate
shows that it is a nutritive OF a: high
order, since it contains the constituents
of a complete food in very satisfactory
and rich proportion and in an easily as
similable state"
An analysis made by the Canadian
Government some time ago shows that
Grape-Nuts contains nearly ten times
the digestible elements contained III 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.
