The Bumper
Wheat Crop
means nourishment to millions. But, did you know that a large percent of what
are known as the vital phosphates of this wheat will be wasted, so far a
human needs are concerned? That's unfortunate, but true.
Many so-called breakfast foods and all white flour products lack these
mineral elements phosphorus, iron, lime, etc because they are thrown out
of the wheat in the milling process, just to make the flour look white and
pretty. And yet these elements are absolutely necessary all of them
for health.
There's one food, however, that does not lack these mineral elements.
That food is
Grape - Nuts
Made of wheat and barley, this sturdy food contains all the nutriment of
the grain, including their rich phosphates, so essential for body, brain and
nerve building. The long baking of Grape-Nuts food makes it easily digesti
ble, with highly concentrated food-values.
, Comes ready to eat; fresh, crisp, economical, and wonderfully appetizing.
