As World Heart Day (WHD) approaches, Singapore’s leading Fresh Soya Milk, NUTRISOY reaffirms its long-standing commitment to championing heart health by offering Singaporeans convenient and nutritious dietary choices to support cardiovascular wellness all year-round.
With the projection of heart attacks in Singapore set to nearly triple by 2050, it is more important than ever to rally Singaporeans to take proactive steps in reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD).
Dedicated to raising the awareness about CVD, the importance of prevention and encouraging heart-health behaviours, WHD is celebrated annually on 29 September by over 100 member associations of the World Heart Federation globally. In Singapore, it coincides with National Heart Week, organised by the Singapore Heart Foundation (SHF). Featuring the Limbang-SHF Health Carnival on 28 September, the event offers the public a variety of initiatives, including cooking demonstrations to prepare healthier food options, heart screenings, and mass workouts, to inspire healthier lifestyles.
CVD are often linked to modifiable risk factors such as high blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood glucose levels, also known as ‘metabolic syndrome’, a cluster of conditions that occur together, increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes. A diet high in sugar, saturated fats and sodium, along with low fruit and vegetable intake have been linked to the risk of CVD. The choice to include nutrient-rich foods in daily diets has an important role in protective heart health, and reducing risks.
NUTRISOY supports the belief that heart-health is an ongoing commitment by making its range of convenient, healthier choice plant-based drinks accessible and an enjoyable part of daily life. A trusted ally in maintaining heart health, NUTRISOY’s range of beverages, including NUTRISOY Fresh Soya Milk Omega No Sugar Added, is designed to support consumers in pursuit of healthy living, maintaining good cardiovascular function and overall wellness. Crafted with premium, non-genetically modified soybeans, NUTRISOY’s nutrient-rich offerings are free from added preservatives. Naturally cholesterol-free, with a low glycemic index, it provides a simple yet nutritious option for individuals to incorporate functional foods and nutrition into everyday life.
Enriched with omega-3 fatty acids, specifically alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), derived from flaxseed and not synthesised by the body, NUTRISOY, together with a healthy diet, helps reduce triglycerides, lower inflammation, increase “good” HDL cholesterol, decrease blood clotting, and prevent irregular heart rhythms. Each serving (250ml) delivers a substantial portion of the recommended daily intake of omega-3, meeting a significant portion of the recommended daily intake for both adult males and females.
Soybeans are a nutritional powerhouse, being one of the plant-based proteins that provides a complete profile of all nine essential amino acids. With each serving containing the protein equivalent to 1.5 eggs, it is a valuable option for muscle maintenance, cell repair, and overall vitality. The presence of soy protein and isoflavones has also been shown to help lower cholesterol levels, further reducing the risk of heart disease, and supporting overall well-being. In addition, soybeans provide a well-balanced profile of essential nutrients such as iron, phosphorus, B vitamins, and zinc.
The comprehensive nutritional benefits of NUTRISOY Fresh Soya Milk Omega No Sugar Added is fortified with calcium, providing the equivalent of two glasses of milk per serving, along with vitamin D3 to support bone health and immunity. Together, these minerals make this nutrient-rich drink an ideal choice for individuals looking to better manage both heart health and blood sugar levels.
