John Harvey Kellogg (1852–1943), physician and dietary reformer
As head of the Seventh Day Adventists’ Battle Creek (Michigan) Sanitorium, Kellogg (together with his wife, Ella) developed a vegetarian dietary approach strongly influenced by Sylvester Graham’s advocacy of whole grains. It was the experiments with crushed-grain mixtures conducted by Kellogg and his brother Will that led to the modern proliferation of flaked breakfast cereals.
