Constipation is a dangerous disease. A ou cannot afford to take chances in getting relief. You cannot afford to experiment or put off. Kellogg’s Bran brings relief—permanent relief if eaten regularly. Even in the most chronic cases of constipation it is guaranteed to bring results. If it fails, your grocer will return your money. Kellogg’s Bran, cooked and krum bled, has brought relief to thousands because it is ALL bran. Remember, only ALL bran can be 100 per cent effective. That is why Kellogg’s Bran is recommended by doctors. It sweeps, cleans and purifies the intestine.
