writes:
II had drank coffee for about twenty
years, and finally had what the doctor
called coffee heart ] was nervous
and extremely despondent; had little
mental or physical strength left, had
kidney trouble and constipation.
THE first noticeable benefit derived
from the change from coffee TO Postum
was the natural action OF the kidneys
and bowels. In two weeks my heart
action was greatly improved and my
nerves steady.
Then became less despondent, and
the desire to be active again showed
proof of renewed physical and mental
strength.
