Its wholesomeness that carries an abundance of nutritional benefits can now be enjoyed with the vegan-friendly and limited-edition NUTRISOY Fresh Soya Milk Kurogoma With Real Black Sesame.

Kurogoma, or black sesame in Japanese, is an ingredient that is commonly used to enhance the flavours of both savoury dishes and in desserts in Asia. Whether ground into a bowl of delicious sesame paste or pudding, sprinkled on salads, or tossed into vegetable dishes, the possibilities are endless with this nutrient-rich seed that can enhance the enjoyment of every meal.

The tiny yet mighty black sesame seeds offer numerous health benefits. A source of plant protein, the seeds are rich in fat, protein, and dietary fibre1. Protein plays a vital role in the repair and construction of essential components within our bodies, including cells, tissues, organs, muscles, antibodies, and hormones2. Dietary fibre slows down the release of sugars from digested food into the bloodstream, and may help to lower total cholesterol levels3. Incorporating black sesame in the diet may enhance nutritional intake and overall well-being of the human body.

For those who adopt a plant-based diet, it is often a challenge to consume certain essential nutrients like calcium and protein, which are primarily found in animal products. Soya beans, a good source of plant protein and calcium, are the only vegetable source that contains allnine essential building blocks of protein, known as amino acids4. They are also classified as a low glycaemic index (GI) food due to their high protein and dietary fibre contents5. For those who adopt a plant-based diet, soya beans are an alternate protein source.

The wholesome and delicious range of vegan-friendly NUTRISOY products are high in plant-based protein, calcium, and vitamin D3 as compared to other soya bean beverages, and suitable for those who are lactose intolerant. NUTRISOY is certified heart-friendly by the Singapore Heart Foundation.
