| Tested: Low Glycemic Index (GI) |
Have you guys heard about the Glycemic Index (GI)? Let me clarify your doubts, it's actually a scale and from 1 to 100, it indicates how quickly the carbs in food raise blood sugar levels. If you're looking for a low GI drink, NutriSoy is the top choice!
According to the World Health Organization, ischaemic heart disease and stroke are the world’s biggest killers, accounting for a combined 15 million deaths in 2015. In Singapore, cardiovascular diseases account for 1 out of 3 deaths. These diseases carry no early symptom; often a sudden attack claim lives unexpectedly and prematurely. It is therefore important to fight against these diseases by taking the right steps to achieve good heart health.  |

Therefore, it is important to take precautionary measures by ensuring you're on the right pathway towards a healthy lifestyle. It is vital to achieve good heart health. Preventive measures such as routine health screening, a nutritious diet, and an active lifestyle are some important habits that Singaporeans need to take up to improve their cardiovascular health. F&N NutriSoy supports Singapore Heart Foundation’s (SHF) programme on World Heart Day to educate and encourage Singaporeans on the many ways to lead a heart-healthy lifestyle.
Combining modern convenience and great taste, F&N NutriSoy soya milk offers a sumptuous blend of great taste and nutrition, for a healthier and balanced diet that cares for the heart. It is amazing how this small and humble soya bean is packed full of nutrients with multiple benefits. Naturally cholesterol-free, lower in saturated fat and containing high amounts of protein, soya beans are the only vegetable source that contains all the essential amino acids for human nutrition (American Family Physician, 2009).
Research has also suggested that consumption of more plant protein such as soy, rather than animal protein, can lower the risk of cardiovascular disease (Advances in Nutrition, 2015). Rich in iron, phosphorus, magnesium, B-vitamins, Omega-3 fatty acids, and zinc, soya protein and isoflavones found in soya milk are able to lower total cholesterol and low density lipoproteins, known as ‘bad’ cholesterol. This explains why consumption of soya beans as a dietary staple has been associated with lowering incidence of cardiovascular disease (European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, 2017; Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2015).
