Out of juice? Grab yourself a fruit fix
Health-conscious workaholics now have a convenient way to get their nutrition and fibre
Nutritious and refreshing, fruits are among Mother Nature's greatest gifts to mankind.
It is recommended that the average Singaporean has at least two servings of fruit every day but they are often neglected in favour of hearty meals.
Many busy Singaporeans may have no time to peel and prepare fruits, after grocery shopping and other chores.
Thankfully, convenient options such as the S&W Fruit and Chia are available for health-conscious workaholics.
It packs luscious chunks of juicy fruit and is high in fibre.
And unlike most pre-packed fruits, each S&W Fruit and Chia cup contains no high fructose corn syrup.
It is also devoid of artificial flavours and sweeteners.
Each cup amounts to one serving of fruit and offers 800mg of Omega-3s that fight arthritis, depression, dementia and other ailments.
Refreshing and sweetly aromatic, the Peaches in Strawberry Dragonfruit Chia flavour is a tantalising trove of goodness.
Some fruits have high calorie content due to their natural sugars, but the pear is not one of them.
Hence, the Pears in Blackberry Chia flavour may be more attractive to those attempting to lose weight.
They add little by way of calories but perk you up with immense nutritional supplementation.
Their fibre content can easily satisfy your hunger pangs too, making your diets far less tortuous to go on.
For those seeking variety, the Mixed Fruit in Tropical Chia is a healthy blend of goodness.
Expect varying flavours in every mouthful, which leaves behind a lingering coolness.
All three flavours fuse chunks of fruit with another of Mother Nature's gems - chia seeds.
This superfood is high in vitamins and minerals, and is a rich source of antioxidants.
And because it is high in fibre, it will help you feel full for longer.
DIABETES
It also promotes a lower risk of developing diabetes by regulating blood sugar levels.
One of the top plant-based protein sources, it is also a boon for those wanting to build lean muscle.
Chia seeds have been shown to support a healthy complexion, increased energy and aid in weight loss plans.
S&W Fruit and Chia is available at FairPrice outlets at $5.20 per sleeve.
Each sleeve contains two 7oz cups.
