The truth about
REDUCING PRODUCTS
By Waiter Brooks
BY Waiter Brooks

Directions in the box state that taken
before meals as directed, il curbs the
appetite so you automatically eat less
and lose weight naturally.
The age-oId truism: Eat a sweet be-
fore a meal-spoil the appetite" was not
unfamiliar TO the participants. But what
puzzled them, as one man put il, was
this: You say Ayds candy contains no
reducing drugs. Then why won't ordi-
nary candy work as well?"
The answer is simple" said the direc-
tor. When you eat = say chocolate
cream, you're adding Us calories TO
your intake. But with Ayds, you're tax
ing a specially made candy of only IS
Galleries. What's more, its enriched with
vitaminS and minerals to maintain your
health while eating less"
The director then explained that the
action of Ayds is based on the theory of
blood sugar levels. When a persons
blood sugar is low, his craving for food
is high. But when an individuals blood
sugar is elevated, his desire to eat is next
to nil.
In a separate study made at the univer-
sity to determine the effects of the seven
reducing products on blood sugar levels,
it was found that the low-calorie candy
caused the greatest elevation. This, in
turn, curbed hunger waves" among the
test subjects an average of 3396 longer
than the next best product
For all who are encouraged by this re-
port to try, once again, to lose weight
they never could before, the following
fact should be kept in mind. There is no
magic way to reduced Layers of fat are
not built up in day. They cannot be
shed overnight.
Underscoring this fact are the innu-
merable cases where government agen-
cieS have taken action against firms that
claimed their products would produce
specific weight loss in few days. Or that
said their products we're safe for fat per-
sons when, in fact, they contained drugs
that could be dangerous. Many such prod
uctS have been barred from the mails.
However, the reliability of the Ayds
Plan has been confirmed in us. Circuit
Court of Appeals. Here, three learned
judges held, with respect to Ayds. that
''one eating the candy will, according to
well recognized medical principles, have
less desire for food, and, therefore, eat
less" And doctors agree: to lose weight,
eat less.
Thus, Ayds has not only been clini-
cally proved, but the Ayds Plan has been
legally recognized as one that works safe
ly and effectively in helping people lose
weight.
AydS Reducing Plan Vitamin- Mineral
Candy, of which there are two kinds, a
regular vanilla caramel and chocolate
fudge-type, may be purchased at drug
and department stores everywhere. And
what more pleasant way is there to lose
weight than TO eat CANDY?
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-02-22

public these days than there are caloTleS
in cream puff But the trouble is. some
are much less effective than others. And
trying to discover which one works best
is what's SO confusing and maddening to
the IS million adults who are looking for
a safe, easy way to reduce.
During recent months at famous
Chicago university. medical researchers
conducted a series of tests TO find out as
much as possible about the safety and
effectiveness of reducing substances now
in wide use.
The findings of this study will probably
be the most important news ever read by
people who have tried without success to
lose weight.
For the test, seven leading weight re-
ducing products waferS, tablets, pills, low
calorie candy and drugs) were selected.
Chosen as human guinea pigs" was
a group of men and women: students,
housewives, teachers, statesmen, dentists
even a priest and a nun. All physically
sound but for one exception: they needed
to lose weight. Equally important, they
wanted to reduce, so readily agreed to
cooperate for a full 8-weeks' program.
The test subjects were assigned their
particular reducing products by system
of random selection. One woman re-
belled, however, when she learned that
she was to take candy. Can't | take
something elSe?" she pleaded Il really
want to lose weight. And it seems to me
candy's the last thing ought to eat"
Reminded that she'd agreed to cooperate,
she finally acquieSced and took her
medicine" as she called it-only, in this
case, it was a special candy for reducing.
According TO the doctor in charge OF
the investigation, no attempt was made
to control the diet of the individuals. We
were attempting to evaluate these prepa-
rations under normal conditions of use,
he said.
Consequently, participants were given
their test substances in the original pack
ages and simply told to follow directions.
However, those on dextro-amphetamine,
prescription product, were given typed
instructions for Safety's sake.
Over the eight-week period, partici-
pants were weighed weekly. At the end
of the program, those on dextro-ampheta-
mine had lost an average of only 3.S lbs.
Those on the second best product lost
as lbs. Patients on one widely sold tablet
lost at first, then ended up by gaining
weight But those eating the candy (AydS,
made by Campana, Batavia, ILL., lost
lis lbs, the highest average weight loss
of all. Some taking Ayds even lost up to
Il lbs. Interesting sidelight: The candy
plan turned out to be the least expensive
method.
One enigma remained, however, as far
as the participants were concerned. Just
how did this low-calorie candy work?
