Why Try to Fool
, Your Stomach?
Some folks have an idea that if they eat big meals,
their brains and bodies will be strong.
Strength and energy don’t come from gorging
the stomach, but depend upon eating the right kind
of food.
For nourishment of brain and body, Nature
abundantly supplies in her field grains the elements
needed.
The famous wheat and barley food
Grape-Nuts
contains in splendid proportion all the nutriment of the
grains, retaining the mineral salts—phosphate of pot-
ash, etc., stored under their outer coat, and which are
especially necessary for keeping brain, nerves and
muscle in working trim.
Grape-Nuts food is in the form of crisp, nut-like
granules — delicious with cream or good milk—easy to
digest—economical—
The perfect food for sound nourishment!
