Funny thing is if you consume sufficient carbohydrates over a long enough period of time then the resultant chronically elevated insulin is a well known correlate with erectile dysfunction. Same with Type 2 Diabetes.

So it works! Extra effective if the cornflakes are frosted.

Kellogg himself was a Seventh Day Adventist and influenced by the work of Ellen G White, who believed that eating meat led to masturbation.

Is there anything religion can't ruin?

More fun facts: The Sanitarium health and well-being company are owned by the Seventh Day Adventist Church and pay no taxes as a result.

They sell weetbix, which have the same effects on your health as corn flakes.

So the answer to your question is no.

Ellen G. had some serious mental problems. Real piece of work by all accounts.
