Contains 30% of pure Cod-Liver Oil yet tastes like a Sweetmeat
'Bynol' is an elegant preparation containing 30% of pure Norwegian Cod-Liver Oil intimately commingled with Malt Extract. It is a body-building food of great value in convalescence after severe illness and in äll cases of general debility and malnu- trition. Bynol is particularly valuable to those whose body weight is below normal, enabling them to build up a reserve of fat and so tending to maintain the body temperature.
