#Viral has recently claimed health claim for Nilofa Banana Milk. Milk and bananas are nutritious and have many health benefits, but why many people hate Nilofa Banana Milk. Let’s take a look at this Nilofa Banana Milk.
“Many are asking why I choose banana milk… I made a lot of requests here, adding that there are Korean influences including their food.
Indeed, Neelofa’s efforts are very good in the F&B business. It’s not just Neelofa that many Malaysian artists now venture into the business world. However, in order to sell nutritional products many things need to be explored especially regarding specific health claims.
Nilofa Banana Milk
As a Dietitian, this banana milk looks like banana milk mixed with processed. The nutrients obtained are from bananas and milk only. A healthier option would be for unprocessed foods, you can try banana milkshake or banana smoothie at home. There may be other ingredients added to the drink.
Content of Nilofa Banana Milk
Water
Australian Import Milk (Australia Whole Milk)
Sucrose
Calcium Carbonate
Vitamins (B2, B3, B12)
Contains stabilizers, dyes, and flavors as Authorized Food Conditioners
Water is the first ingredient in the list so water contributes to the highest volume in non-dairy drinks. But the banana is not in the contents. So maybe bananas are just an added flavor. So the claim that the nutritional benefits of bananas cannot be included.
Instead of putting the name sugar in the content, sucrose is used, for the purpose of sucrose is sugar. Sucrose is the third ingredient in the beverage content.
To your knowledge, Whole Milk contains higher fat content than the Milk Scheme and also Low Fat Milk. But the low fat content in Nilofa Banana Milk may be lower in water content.

The added sugar is sucrose. I don’t think I need to put Glucose in there either. One tablespoon contains 15g of sugar, so the amount of sugar one tablespoon contains in the drink. In contrast to other whole milk nutrition information, the fat content is relatively low. It may also be due to higher water content.
