Grapenuts are part of a Balanced Eating diet or BE. If you'll send me $49 for my new book _The BE All and End All of Hornplaying_, I will show you with compelling anecdotal evidence that the BE grapenuts diet will add three octaves to your range, seven hours to your endurance, and, most of all, $49 to my bank account. So take my word for it, send the money, and tell your friends.
