Some of the doctors who made public statements were: DR. KURT HENIUS, Professor, University of Berlin; Lecturer in the Intestinal Clinic of the University 11 Charité, Berlin's greatest hospital and clinic; former physician to Ger: man royalty and Medical Ad- yiser of the Russlan Embassy in Berlin; personal physiclan to one of |1 Germany’s great industrial mag- nates, Dr. Henius 1s one of the out- standing figures of German medi- cine to-day. “Yeast has won its place in in- ternal medication and is variously prescribed. The active constituent of yeast is abundant vitamins, par- |ticularly the important vitamin B. TLarge amounts of Ingested yeast per se may eliminate certain kinds of intestinal bacteria. “Because of its vitamin content yeast is an effective remedy in gen- eral debility. “In constipation intestinal yeast fermentation promotes peristalsis and easy elimination. “Yeast is one of the most reliable remedies in furunculosis of the skin | (botls), which 1is obviously fre- iquently due to disturbed intestinal functioning.” PROF. DR. PAUL REYHER, Lec- turer, University of Berlin, on vita- ‘mins, X-Ray and Pediatrics; Direc- tor, Children’s Hospital, Berlin, which he built and equipped. The Germans refer to this hospital as “the jewel box” because of its per- fect appointments and beauty of structure. In connection with this hospital he maintains a dairy farm where the cows are carefully washed before being milked in dirt-proof rooms. “The medicinal uses of yeast are more many-sided than is generally essumed. “Yepst abundintly contains the enti-neuritic vitamin B....This vitamin has a very close relation to the functioning of the nervous sys tem. It also stimulates the appetite, regulates .metabolism, promotes growth, and finally increases bodily resistance to every kind of infection. “There is ample evidence that yeast contains a remarkable thera- peutic factor.” PROF. DR. CARL NEUBERG, of Berlin; Director, Institute of Exper- imental Therapy and Bio-Chemistry et Berlin-Dahlem; Lecturer. Univer~ sity of Berlin, research sclentist, au- thor of many articl “Research work on yeast in all the civilized countries, America, Eng- land and Germany for the last 10 years has led to results remarkable in many respects. “The indispensable factors to all life, the ferments, are present in yeast, equally manifold and equally powerful as in animal tissue. The new research on metabolism has proven that the fermentation and breathing of yeast and the activity of the human muscles are funda- mentally ‘the same. “Thus yeast occupies a unique po- sition and its scientific recognition ustifies the long experience of phy- siclans with it and its effectiveness es a popular home remedy. This recognition by sclence proves, too, that the employment of good yeast as a food may be useful in many ways for mankind. Fleischmann Company Receives 62,439 letters about yeast. In the last year alone, The Fleischmann Company _received 62,439 letters telling what yeast had done for the writers. Eating yeast for health has become a national health habit which promises great benefits, many medical authorities say. HE SAYS, “ . .. Yeast Is an Effective Remedy . . . " DR. KURT HENIUS “YEAST CONTAINS Remark- able Healing Power,” he states DECLARES YEAST “A Popu- lar Home Remedy” PROF. DR. CARL NEUBERG Intestinal Stagnation Source of 90% of our Common Ills Medical research in recent years has established more and more cer- F:: tainly that not only indigestion and . constipation, but unsightly skin . disorders, bad breath, sore throats and frequent colds start in clogged, infected colons. In fact 90% of all- ments begin this way. From throat : to colon is one continuous tube. When the colon is clogged, poisons gpread to all parts of the body. Fl ~hmann's Yeast is a fresh, 9 food. Unlike dried or Jeast, 1t contains millions of lving, active yeast plants which destroy harmful bacteria dally, as , they pass through your intestincs. It keeps the entire Intestinal tract clean, active and healthy. Thousands of men and Women have testified to the health which has come to them from the regular eating of Flelschmann’s Yeast. Nag- ging, wearing colds, sore throats have vanished. With them have gone beadaches and general listless- ness. Exuberant vitality has re- turnedd. The energy that brings suc- cess and happiness has come in full measure. ‘To get full benefit from yeast you must eat it regularly and over a sufficlent period of time. Fleisch- mann’s Yeast is sold at all grocers and many leading cafeterias, lunch counters and soda fountains. Start to-day to eat yeast and learn the Joy of real health. Eat three cakes every day, one cake before each meal or between meals plain, or in ‘water (hot or cold.). Buy ¢wo or three daye' supply at a time, as it keeps in & cool, dry place. FROM THROAT TO COLON—A y Physiciahs S e Continuous Tube Member of the French Academy of Medicine Says Yeast Checks Intestinal Fermentation Dr. Gaston Lyon Calls Yeast a Health Food Widely Prescribed PARIS.—The value of yeast to the human race as the health food which prevents intestinal stagna- tion and related disturbances of the digestion and skin, was proclaimed here by leaders of the French med= ical profession. Chief among those who issued statements were: DR. GASTON LYON—bne of the outstanding figures of the medical profession in France; he has been Chief of the Medical Clinic of the Faculty of Paris, the focal point of medical progress in France; he is, Laureate of the Academy of Med!- cine; he is author of the standard “Elementary Treatise on Clinical Therapeutics,” “Consultations on Diseases of the Digestive Tract,” and many other works. “In France, especially since the work of the sclentist, Dr. L. Brocq, yeast has entered the realm of thera~ peutics, and it is to-day generally prescribed. It is especially used in disorders of the skin. But it is not limited to skin diseases; it is rec- ognized that yeast has a modifying action on nutrition. It reduces in- testinal fermentation, and regulates the functioning of the testine. Yeast should be used all the more since it can be taken without in=- convenience.” DR.

S. Survey A survey has just been com- pleted covering = physicians in every State in the United States. Half the doctors reporting sald they prescribed fresh yeast to combat clogging of the intestines and kindred {lls— indigestion, skin disorders, headaches, “nerves.” Already millions of men, wom- en and children in America have ‘been benefited by the remark- able food — fresh yeast—which doctors throughout the world are acclaiming. London, Berlin, Parls, Vienna, Copenhagen. . . . From these great centres of health research have come many of the most far-reaching discoveries of modern medical sclence. Discoveries that have brought to millions of Americans as well as Europeans new alds in the fight against dis- ease—new means to radiant, joyous health. When, three quarters of a cen- tury ago, an unknown London doc- tor proclalmed yeast a remarkable health food, sclentists throughout Europe began to experiment—first with animals, later with hundreds of human patients. To-day this food, es famous in America as in Europe, is halled by seventeen leading ‘physiclans of Europe as the enemy of man's greatest scourge, constipation. In the statements in adjoining columns these seventeen doctors tell their reasons. In authority and enthusiasm these statements are unique. The doctors who make them are bearers of titles and honors bestowed by their governments and colleagues. As leaders of medical thought they realize that whatever they may say may influence thousands of men and women. Yet unqualifiedly and without reservation they say: “Eat Yeast.” In every corner of the United States and Canada, men and wom- en will be grateful for this au- thoritative confirmation from the highest medical sources of the value of fresh yeast as & health food.

From this point of view and by reason of its absolute harmlessness, yeast is & remedy of first rank and its wealth of vitamin B makes it a food of great value. For more than 25 years I have found yeast advan- tageous in my practice to regulate the digestion of my patlents, espe- cially of those affected with chronic intestinal trouble or with bilious- ness.” 3 DR.

There is no doubt that a shortage of the vitamin B is responsible for and aggravates this complaint. Fresh yeast is par~ ticularly rich in vitamin B. It stimulates intestinal action and has & most important effect on constie pation and 1ts related digestive troubles and diseases.” DR.

For such I should like to prescribe less feasting and more yeasting.” SIR BRUCE BRUCE-PORTER, Knight of the British Empire; Commander of St. Michael and St. George; one of the best known English physicians and a prominent worker in the field of preventative medicine. In the opinion of this well-known English physician: “Constipation “is an unnatural condition resulting from incorrect dletary and is the cause of more misery than any other bodily cone dition.
