why it is the best of personal and family

It acts pleasantly and naturally sn6

BOTH GAINED
Man and Wife Fatten on erape-Nuts.

The notion that meat is necessary
for real strength and the foundation
OF solid flesh is no longer as prevalent
as formerly.
Excessive meat eaters are usually
sluggish part Of the time because
they are not able TO fully digest their
food. and the undigested portion is
changed into what is practically a
kind of poison that acts upon the
blood and nerves, thus getting all
through the system.
Il was a heavy meat eater" writes
m Ills. man, and up to two years
ago, was in very poor health. l suf-
fered with indigestion so that l only
weighed 80 pounds.
Then heard about Grape-Nuts and
decided TO try it. My wife laughed at
me at first but when l gained to 125
pounds and felt so fine, she thought
she would eat Grape-Nuts too.
Now she is fat and well and has
gained 10 pounds. We never have in
digestion any more and seldom feel
the desire for meat. A neighbor of
ours, 6S years old. was troubled with
Indigestion for years; was a heavy
meat eater. and now since he has been
eating Grape-Nuts regularly, he says
he Is well and never has indigestion.
