Superiority

Eledon

over liquid buttermilk is borne out by clinical experience: evidence being available of its dietetic value and decided advantages over fresh buttermilk which varies considerably in composition.

Only milk of the highest possible quality is used in the pre- paration of Eledon which is constant in its degree of acidity, and therefore provides a lactic acid milk in powder form which may be used with the greatest confidence where buttermilk is required regularly. Eledon requires only simple reconstitu- tion with (previously boiled) water at approximately blood heat to make a complete acid buttermilk diet.
