Bournvitality
WHAT IS IT?
Bourn-vitality is a state in which a person's body, mind and nerves are strengthened to resist undue fatigue.
HOW DOES IT ACT ?, Bourn-vitality produces abundant energy arising from sound sleep and properly digested nourishment. The energy thus gene- rated is normally maintained throughout the day, and is accompanied by an agreeable feeling of cheerfulness.
•
HOW DOES ONE GET IT? Bourn-vitality is acquired and kept going by the action of taking a glass or cup of Cadbury's Bournvita every night before going to bed. In this product are the combined virtues of eggs, malt, milk and chocolate, the splendid nourishment of which is presented in a tempting and highly digestible form.
