Malaria Myths and Postum as a Remedy in Denver Letter
A Denver reader claims coffee worsens liver congestion and fever like chills, with headaches and indigestion. Six months after quitting coffee and using Postum Food Coffee, her headaches vanished and digestion improved, with no chills or fever for over three months. Her daughter, once plagued by crippling headaches, offered up coffee and turned to Postum, reporting relief, sharper memory, and renewed vigor. The writer credits Postum, from Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich, and cites advertising lines urging readers to try Postum and read The Road to Wellville.
