Healthy Mummy Products awarded 5 star health rating!

Wowsers! We are stoked that a heap of Healthy Mummy products have been given 5 star ratings by Health Star Rating. 

We’ve always known just how amazing our products are, so it’s really validating to be also recognised by The Health Star Rating system, which was developed by the Australian, state and territory governments in collaboration with industry, public health and consumer groups.

Healthy Mummy has been given 5 star health ratings!

Food product packaging can be confusing but The Healthy Star Rating system was introduced to make it easier! It rates the overall nutritional profile of packaged food and assigns it a rating from ½ a star to 5 stars.

The more stars, the healthier the choice!

In fact, the system is based on comparing products within similar food categories and allows us to quickly compare the general nutritional profile of foods within that category.

And The Healthy Mummy products that have been rated are:

What’s more, our Tummy Vanilla smoothie has also passed as FODMAP friendly!

FODMAP stands for “Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides And Polyols”. These are fermentable short-chain carbohydrates that can be difficult for the small intestine to absorb. They can cause liquid in the bowel and more gas which can lead to bloating pain and diarrhoea.

People suffering from IBS are particularly sensitive to FODMAPS, and by reducing the amount of FODMAPS in the diet, can reduce the symptoms of IBS and other common digestive disorders.
