Yes, it’s true that Dr. Kellogg’s famous cornflakes were originally created as a way to prevent certain urges and inhibit one from wanting to do anything about said urges. Dr. Kellogg, a physician and health advocate, believed that sexual activity was harmful to the body and the mind, and he sought to develop a range of foods and other products that would help people resist their urges.

While Dr. Kellogg’s beliefs were common in his time, they have since been widely discredited, and we now have a much greater understanding of the benefits of a healthy and positive attitude towards sexuality. As for the corn flakes themselves, they remain a popular breakfast food to this day, but thankfully, they are no longer marketed as a way to suppress sexual urges.
