RESEARCH REVEALS ALL-BRAN RICH IN HEALTH-ELEMENTS Helps Correct Constipation with "Bulk" and Vitamin B; Also Has Iron Recent scientific research shows that Kellogg's All-Bran contains two things needed to overcome tem porary and recurring constipation. It has "bulk" to exercise the intes tines, and Vitamin B to tone tho intestinal tract. These two important food,-elc-ments promote regular habits, and help do away with the headaches, loss of appetite and energy, sb often the result of constipation. The "bulk" in All-Bran 13 mild in action much like that of let tuce. Inside tho body, it forms a Boft mass, -which gently clears the intestines of wastes. Special cook ing processes make All-Bran finer, softer, more palatable. Isn't this pleasant "cereal way" far more healthful than using pills and drugs so often habit-forming? Just eat two tablespoonfuls of Kellogg's daily enough for most types of constipation. If your in testinal trouble is not relieved thin way, see your doctor. Besides, All-Bran brings your body twice as much blood-building iron as an equal amount by weight of beef liver. Equally tasty as a cereal with milk or cream, or used in cooking.
