Before this ruling, even part
bran products were sometimes mis
takenly referred to as "Bran." It
was not easy for tho purchaser to
distinguish between a cereal that
was entirely bran, or all bran with
flavoring, and another that was
mostly wheat
Kellogg's All-Bran is labeled
"All-Bran Deliciously Flavored
with Malt, Sugar and Salt," a stato-
mcnt which describes the product
fairly and honestly.
,. Kellogg's All-Bran has won mil
lions of friends because it corrects
most types of common constipation
safely and pleasantly. It furnishes
! generous "bulk" needed to pro
mote normal elimination.
I However, All-Bran is not a
I "cure-all." Certain types of intes
' tinal disorders should be treated
only on a physician's advice.
I When you buy a bran cereal, for
' the relief of constination. read the
