According to Amanda Ursell who is a qualified nutritionist and dietitian and award winning journalist, television presenter and author:
"The problem is, when we drink calories rather than eating them in foods, it seems that the area of our brains which tell us that we are feeling full do not get triggered very effectively. In other words we can slurp down drinks and not register the calories that we are adding to our daily total.The idea that a drink may be able to fulfill the role off both a drink and be filling fascinates me. Naturally Gorgeous drinks have been made using low GI ingredients including fruit juices, skimmed milk, agave nectar (a natural sweetener which comes from the blue cactus plant in Mexico), pectin (a soluble fibre which appears to slow down stomach emptying) and a fascinating ingredient made from pine nuts called PinnoThin™"
There are two flavors to suit all tastes and each one is a unique blend of nutritious fruit with calcium-rich skimmed milk plus PinnoThin™. Naturally Gorgeous is currently available in most Waitrose stores in the UK with two flavors; ruby orange & strawberry and coconut & pineapple. More flavors are expected soon.
