have written their, Bovril stories, Over 500 British hospitals and similar public institutions use and prescribe Bovril, not beef tea, but Bovril.
The reason is not far to seek. Bovril is a nourisher as well as a stimulant. It contains the albumen and fibrine, the sustaining properties of the beer. It is this fact, together with its absolute purity, that commends Bovril to physicians and scientists, and proves in practice what it demonstrates in analysis.
