Dear Mr Ravenscroft

Thank you for your letter of 1st April and please accept my sincere apologies for the delay in responding.

We are absolutely delighted that you have discovered Ryvita and are intrigued at a calorie controlled diet which includes regular helpings of Ryvita Chip Butties!

With reference to your particular queries, Ryvita is 100% natural and contains no artificial additives or preservatives. The ingredients are purely wholemeal rye. water and a pinch of salt. Ryvita is therefore naturally high in fibre and low in fat and contains a natural balance of vitamins and minerals. As such, Ryvita is the ideal product to be incorporated into any healthy eating plan and is widely recommended by nutritionists and slimming clubs. However, if you are generally concerned about your diet, we would recommend that you see your doctor who is the best person to advise you on the suitability of your diet.

As Ryvita is baked at fairly high temperatures, it is naturally very crunchy but there are many toppings you can use to help soften the crispbread which are also delicious and very nutritious. We have enclosed some booklets on Ryvita toppings and serving suggestions to give you some ideas.

In addition, we also manufacture an extruded crispbread called "Crackerbread". Crackerbread has a "softer'~ bite than Ryvita and we are enclosing a pack for you to try. Crackerbread, like Ryvita, is available from all major multiples.

We do hope this gives you lots of ideas and good luck with the diet.

With kind regards

Yours sincerely

Cathy Dalton
