It is Devonshire milk exclusively, purified and dried in Devonabire itself as soon as it comes from the cows, by a unique process that retains the important vitamins. The quality of "* Ambrosia” never varies and it is many times purer and more digestible than any liquid milk you can buy. For these reasons Ambrosia” is extensively used and recommended by Hospitals, Clinics and Doctors. It is the ideal Milk Food for Expectant Mothers, Nursing Mothers and Infant feeding.
