ThE OnLy OnE?

"We are mothers
That the give growing up milk
Is essential for children
What is not essential are the added sugars
Like corn syrup, glucose syrup and sucrose
Most growing up mild contain too much added sugar up to 40%
These means you could be feeding your child up to 13 teaspoons added sugar everyday
Anmum Essential is the only growing up milk with absolutely no added sugars
And it contains advance brain nutrients like DHA & Gangliosides
Help us tell other moms about the right growing up milk for children
Anmum Essential. Filled with nutrition. No added sugar."

That is what I hear from the Anmum Essential Television Commercial. Maybe some words a bit wrong.

Is it true Anmum Essentials is the only growing milk with absolutely no added sugars?
Others growing up milk has added sugars?

What I have learn about added sugars in Anmum & Semakgula website
added sugar is : Corn syrup solids, glucose syrup solids & sucrose.

When I checked S26 & GainKid ingredients, these two brands also don't have any added sugar. Which means, no Corn syrup solids, glucose syrup solids & sucrose.

So, parents out there, don't panicked so easily. There are still another brands of growing milk that free from added sugar.

[My 1 Cents] Semak Label Dulu ^^

  1. Hi, I saja2 browse untuk tahu sikit pasal ANMUM Essential ni. Bila I google, I saw your blogpost. I checked, I punya anak punya susu S26, memang le takde bahan2 tu kat dalam label. Tapi saja je nak main2 website semak gula tu, I pi la jugak, uiiii.....ada 11-14 teaspoons added sugar tuuu..... Alamak......BANYAKNYA!!! I think there must be some other type of added sugars in S26 yang tak termasuk dalam tiga2 bahan tu, kot??
    Nak pi google plak bahan2 lain dalam susu anak I ni....
