/ gained Is pounds in the first few
weeks and am still gaining, but not
so fast as at first My headache began
to leave me after l had used Postum
about two weeks-long enough / ex-
pect to get the coffee poison out of my
system.
Now that a few months have
passed since began to use Postum
Food Coffee, 1 can gladly say that
