Taking good care of yourself means making sure you get all the nourishment you need ? even if you have a small appetite, are out of sorts, or simply can?t find the time to eat. That?s what Complan is all about - it can provide all the nourishment of a complete meal in a delicious, easy-to-prepare, hot or cold drink or healthy cereal you can enjoy anytime.
Heinz India manufactures/ markets in India Complan, which is a complete planned food in a drink enriched with 23 vital nutrients in right quantity and proportion essential for healthy growth. Complan has 100 per cent milk protein, one of the best quality proteins in the right quantity to provide healthy physical growth. Best Quality Protein is one of the critical nutrients for driving childrens growth. Complan has one of the highest quantities of protein versus leading nutritional supplements available in India.
On seeing an advertisement many years ago on TV where a Complan boy takes his mother around his bicycle after drinking Complan, I was so impressed that I bought Complan to see how it tasted and how one felt after consuming the same. And lo and behold I really enjoyed the drink and liked its taste. The boy in the advertisement was to soon become a leading Bollywood actor- Aftab Shivdasani.
If you lead a busy active life, there are lots of reasons why you might need the nourishment Complan can give you. You might not have time to eat a normal meal, you could just be suffering an afternoon energy low, or you might want something light but satisfying before you go to the gym. Complan can also provide the nourishment you need when you are off colour or recuperating from illness.
Complan is absolutely packed with the good stuff you need. Its fortified with 12 essential vitamins and 6 minerals for health and vitality. It provides 50% of your Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) of vitamins C, D and E and 25% of the RDA of vitamin A. Its also a rich source of the essential minerals calcium and iron. Calcium helps towards strong, healthy bones and iron helps maintain physical stamina, strength and mental alertness.
There are a few alternate brands like Horlicks, Milo and Boost but I find Complan is the best.
