NOT DRUGS Food Did 1t.

After using laxative and cathartic medicines from childhood a case of chronic constipation yielded to the scientific food, Grape-Nuts, 'in a few days.
 ssFrom early childhood I suffered with such terrible constipation that l had to use laxatives continuously, go- ing from one drug to another and suffering more or less all the time.
 "A prominent physician whom l consulted told me the muscles of the digestive organs were weakened and could not perform their work without help of some kind, so I have tried at different times about every laxative and cathartic known, but found no help that was at all permanent. I had finally become discouraged and had given my case up as hopeless when I began to use the pFs-Gigested food, Grape Nuts
 Although I had not expected this food to help my trouble. to my great surprise Grape Nuts Sigested easily from the first and :r 8 few days I was convinced that this Ws:s just what my system needed.
 "The bowels performed their func- lions regularly and am now com pletely and permanently cured Of this awful trouble.
 Truly the power Of scientific food
 must be unlimited" Name given by Posturn CO, Battle Greek, 7Eici,. Trial 10 days of Grape-Nuts, when regular food does not seem to sustain 1 the body, works wonders. There's a 1 Reason"
