irS VITALLY IMPORTANT T
' PROPER IRON LEVEL IN THE
D KEEP
BLOOD
One-ounce dish of KELLOGG'S Ad-Bran gives
over VSrd your daily minimum iron needs
Everyone, young or old, needs iron constantly
to help keep up the "iron level" in the blood
to help keep vitality up to par.
The best place to get iron is in foods. But there
are only a Jew foods that have a significant amount
cf iron. Thus, your diet can be lacking In iron with
out your knowing it and your "iron level" may
decline.
Fortunately, there is one everyday breakfast
cereal that is a rich, inexpensive source of readily
assimilable iron. It's KELLOGG'S ALL-BRAN, which
actually gives you more available iron than
spinach. And, in addition to Iron richness, this nut
brown, crunchy breakfast cereal is an important
natural source of calcium, phosphorus, and vita
mins Bi, Bi and niacin. That's because all-bran,
produced by Kollogg's in Battle Creek, Is made
from the vital outer layers of finest wheat
KELLOGG'S Ad-Bran is made from the
VITAL OUTER LAYERS of finest wheat
You know that the skin of a potato and the peel of
an apple are richest in vitamins and minerals. In
the vital outer layers of wheat, too. Nature ttores
some of the grain's most important nutrients.
ALL-BRAN is made of these vital outer layers and is
more abundant in many food elements than whole
wheat itself.
America's Great Regulating Cereal
And, in addition to being a storehouse of iron and
other important elements, fiunous KELLOGG'S
all-bran is Nature's great relulatino cereal.
Millions eat it regularly. It's America's most widely
used regulating food. Just a one-ounce serving
eaten daily is usually adequate- for satisfactory
taxation, all-bran does not interfere with normal
digestion. It is triple-milled for golden softness.
Be sura your family gets a good start on its
requirements of iron and other important food
elements! Serve kellogg's all-bran regularly.
