Flora pro.activ, the cholesterol-lowering plant sterols brand from Unilever, is now available locally in a seven-pack mini drink format in three delicious flavours – Original, Strawberry and Pomegranate & Raspberry.

The seven-pack of 100g mini drinks comes in packaging that states that the product “actively combats cholesterol”. This is because, like all Flora pro.activ products, Flora pro.activ mini drinks contain plant sterols, which are proved to lower cholesterol by up to 15 per cent when consumed together with a healthy diet and lifestyle. Each 100g mini drink contains two grammes of plant sterols, which is the optimum amount of plant sterols needed daily because to lower bad (LDL) cholesterol. One has to consume two to 2.5 grammes of plant sterols every day for at least three weeks. “This product brings pro.activ to consumers in a format that makes it easy to fit consumption of plant sterols into our daily lifestyle,” a Flora pro.activ brand representative said. “A mini-drink with two full grammes of sterols makes it convenient and easy for people to fit into their lives. And that’s the key.”

Alternatively, Flora pro.activ mini drinks can be combined with other Flora pro.activ products available locally – spread and semi-skimmed milk – to give consumers a variety of options in order to reach their daily consumption target.

Flora pro.activ mini drinks are now available in leading stores. Flora pro.activ is part of the range of Flora products imported and distributed by M&Z (Marketing) Ltd.
