I Y FORJO FOR CNSTIPARO 91 Then .ALL-BRA.Isi Brought Relief Read this very enthusiastic' letter "I an 34 years old and as far back in my. life I have been cousti- bated. I was so bad that .1 had one bowel movement every five or six days. 1 was taking every kind of drug known for constipation.. �c• Now for the last two months I have been eating a little ALL -BRAN night and morning and I have at least two to three bowel movements each day:"`— Mr. Frank Piratzky (address furnished upon request). Laboratory tests show Kellogg's ALL BRAN provides "bulk" and ' vitarnia B to aid elimination. AL'L- 7Btttar i:, also a fine source of iron for the blood, The "bulk" in ALL-BR:AN is much like that in leafy vegetables. In- side the body, it forms a soft mass. gently, this clears out the intes- tinal wastes. Isn't this safer than taking harm- ful patent ,: medicines? Two table- spoonfuls abte- s ooh 1 daily s p d y are usually ,suffi- cient. Severe cases with each meal.. If not relieved this way, see your doctor. You'11' enjoy eating Kellogg's ALL -BEAN as a cereal with milk or cream—sugar or honey or fresh fruits added. Or, to use in cooking. In the red -and -green package. At all grocers.
