Zerodha CEO Nithin Kamath calls for front-of-pack labeling amid Bournvita controversy

Nithin Kamath

Bournvita, a brand of health drink, has been in the spotlight lately due to allegations made by a social media influencer claiming that the age-old Cadbury health drink contains excessive amounts of sugar. The influencer’s video went viral, prompting the Mondelez India-owned company to refute the accusations on Monday. The company stated that the influencer’s video was “unscientific” as it “distorted facts and made false and negative inferences.”

Nithin Kamath, the CEO and Co-founder of Zerodha, weighed in on the current health issue by suggesting that health drink manufacturers should incorporate front-of-package food labelling. While refraining from mentioning Bournvita or any other specific health drink, Kamath stated that drinks brands should follow the guidelines proposed by FSSAI in their 2018 draft paper, which highlights the fat and sugar content on the front-of-package labelling.

“An intervention that could help people make healthier food & beverage choices is to have front-of-package food labelling, like FSSAI proposed in their 2018 draft paper,” he tweeted. 

“Indicate fat, sugar, and salt per serving, and a warning if per serving percentage is beyond a percentage of the daily requirement,” Kamath wrote. 

Kamath also said that food or drinks should be taken in moderation for healthy benefits. “Even the healthiest foods on the planet are healthy only when consumed in moderation,” he said. 

In a video released on April 1st, influencer Revant Himatsingka alleged that Bournvita contained high levels of sugar, cocoa solids, and cancer-causing colourants. He further suggested that Bournvita’s tagline “tayyari jeet ki” be revised to “tayyari diabetes ki.”

As a result, the company issued a legal notice to Himatsingka, accusing him of spreading misinformation through his video.

On April 9th, Cadbury Bournvita released a statement declaring that each serving of Bournvita contained 7.5 grams of added sugar, which falls below the daily recommended sugar intake for children.

After deleting his video, Himatsingka apologized to the company. However, despite the removal of the video, it had already amassed 12 million views, and some iterations of the video continue to circulate on social media platforms.

Bournvita stated that it had secured the trust of Indian consumers over the last seventy years by producing scientifically formulated products that adhere to quality standards and comply with the country’s laws.

“We would again like to reinforce that the formulation has been scientifically crafted by a team of nutritionists and food scientists to offer the best of taste and health. All our claims are verified and transparent and all ingredients have regulatory approvals. All the necessary nutritional information is mentioned on the pack for consumers to make informed choices,” a Bournvita spokesperson was quoted by PTI. 

To reassure its consumers, Bournvita emphasized that its formulation had been developed scientifically by a team of nutritionists and food scientists to provide a balance between great taste and health benefits.

“All our claims are verified and transparent and all ingredients have regulatory approvals. All the necessary nutritional information is mentioned on the pack for consumers to make informed choices,” it added. 

In its statement, Bournvita additionally specified that the ideal way to consume the drink was by mixing it with a glass of 200 ml of hot or cold milk, as indicated on the packaging.

“All ingredients are safe, approved for use, and within permissible limits as per the regulatory guidelines,” it said. 

Another claim:

Within a day of Himatsingka’s allegations, another scientist and liver specialist, known as The Liver Doc on Twitter, contested Cadbury’s assertions that Bournvita supports muscle and bone growth, improves immunity, and aids in brain development. The Liver Doc stated that these claims were misleading since there were no controlled studies to substantiate them.

On a Twitter thread, Dr. Philips stated that Cadbury’s claim of designing the product based on scientific research implied that there must be published studies supporting their assertions. However, the only research published that The Liver Doc could locate were those that corroborated Himatsingka’s assertions, which had been made in the now-removed video.

Of the four research papers discovered by Dr. Philips, one indicated that the caffeine content in Bournvita was greater than that found in other comparable cocoa-based products.

Another study identified that Bournvita’s color can alter due to inherent pH changes resulting from its “sugary” composition. A third study referred to the partnership between UNICEF and Cadbury as “sugarwashing.”

In one of his tweets, Dr. Philips stated that Bournvita’s assertion of employing scientific techniques or research to support everything printed on their product is not supported by substantial evidence. Consequently, the claims made by Bournvita about aiding in muscle and bone growth, enhancing immunity, and improving brain development are misleading.

Discretionary spending set to weaken in Q4, posing sales growth challenges of 15%-20% for food, beverage and lifestyle sectors

restaurant

According to industry executives and analysts, the sales growth rate of companies in discretionary sectors, such as quick service restaurants, alcobev, apparel, and lifestyle products, is expected to be around 15%-20% during the January-March quarter. This marks a tapering off from the higher growth rates seen in recent quarters.

Furthermore, analysts noted that the quick service restaurant (QSR) industry continues to face a challenging demand environment due to subdued consumer sentiment and lower discretionary spending. As a result, the industry’s revenue is expected to decline sequentially, following the previous quarter, which benefited from the festival season.

Anjan Chatterjee, the Managing Director of Speciality Restaurants, has reported a decrease in dine-in business of 5%-15% across the industry, while observing that the phenomenon of “revenge eating” is now losing steam. This suggests a shift away from the trend seen in recent times where consumers were eager to make up for missed dining-out experiences during the pandemic.

“Pent-up demand cannot sustain forever and people are back to normal habits. However, the loss of dine-in is ably getting compensated by deliveries. And people are still indulging in dine-in during weekends and special occasions when restaurants are running at full capacity,” said Chatterjee.

In an investor note, Elara Capital has predicted that Jubilant FoodWorks is expected to report a decline of 2.5% in same-store sales during the fourth quarter, with flat like-for-like growth. On the other hand, Westlife Development may outperform its peers, as it has not witnessed a significant drop in footfalls. However, lower demand may impact the company’s revenue.

“Cost pressures persist in the dairy space, leading to an increase in prices of raw materials. Jubilant and Westlife are expected to report average revenue growth of 19.5 percent year-on-year, but a decline of 3.5 percent quarter-on-quarter,” said the Elara report.

Although the liquor segment had exceeded its pre-Covid sales last year, it is anticipated that its growth rate may slow down. The January-March quarter is seasonally weaker for the alco-bev segment, compared to October-December. Furthermore, a route-to-market change in Delhi could also put pressure on the segment’s growth.

“We expect our coverage of alco-bev companies to record 1.9% year-on-year revenue decline as we build on a 5 percent YoY revenue decline for United Spirits post divestiture of the popular portfolio,” said a report by Nirmal Bang.

“Demand peak in discretionary categories seems to be behind us. Elevated ticket sizes and store expansion coupled with normalising footfalls aided growth,” HDFC Securities said in a report. “However, in retail, many of these variables are now mean-reverting. In Q4, we are already seeing signs of reined-in expansion plans across categories and ticket sizes are also normalising.”

Apparel companies are likely to report high growth rates, which may be attributed to a weak base in the previous year. However, the overall demand trends in the apparel sector are expected to remain broadly unchanged.

“The industry has seen an impact of rising cotton prices in small towns as consumers are more price sensitive. We had a strong sales run during the second half last year, a trend which may not continue for every quarter. There will always be volatility in sales,” said Satyen Momaya, India CEO of French apparel brand Celio.

Subway expands north American footprint with 5 new multi-unit owner agreements in growth strategy push

0

Subway, the sandwich chain, has signed five new multi-unit owner agreements in Texas, Florida, Arizona, and the mid-Atlantic as part of its smart growth development strategy.

The consolidation and transfer of more than 230 existing restaurants have occurred in 2023 as a result of the agreements.

As part of the agreements, Subway has committed to remodeling existing restaurants and opening new ones strategically in the upcoming years, to enhance the brand’s overall guest experience and provide a consistent high-quality dining experience throughout its system.

Trevor Haynes, President, Subway North America, said, “A key element of Subway’s multi-year transformation journey is attracting multi-unit owners with the vision, resources, operating expertise and passion for the Subway brand. All five multi-unit agreements are an excellent representation of the brand’s smart growth strategy coming to life and demonstrate the confidence operators have in our brand and future.”

Two seasoned QSR operators with experience managing other leading brands have joined the Subway family. Meanwhile, existing multi-unit owners are also investing significantly in the brand, with one acquiring over 100 existing restaurants, expanding their portfolio to more than 140 locations.

“Subway is an iconic brand that has undeniably refreshed every part of its business over the past few years with the introduction of new menu items, unique guest experiences and operational enhancements,” said Tim Foley, Managing Partner and Founder of EYAS Capital, one of Subway’s new multi-unit owners.

Subway is prioritizing smart growth to enhance franchisee profitability and safeguard its position in the market. The company plans to strategically open new locations and aims to increase new openings by approximately 35 percent in North America in 2023 compared to 2022.

Furthermore, Subway is committed to updating its image with relocations and renovations. In 2023, more than 3,600 locations across North America are slated to undergo remodeling, bringing the total number of restaurants with the current Subway image to over 10,000 by the summer.

Subway is forging partnerships with established and competent operators globally to strategically expand its presence in various markets worldwide. In 2022, the brand opened almost 750 new restaurants across the world, and in Q1 of 2023 alone, 145 new restaurants were added to its global portfolio.

Zomato and RBL Bank to end co-branded credit card partnership, users to receive new cards

0

Foodtech giant Zomato and RBL Bank have announced the discontinuation of their partnership for co-branded Edition credit cards. Effective from May 15th, the Classic and Black Edition cards will become non-operational for users.

“We wish to notify that the partnership between RBL Bank and Zomato Limited, our co-brand partner for RBL Bank Edition Classic Credit Card and RBL Bank Edition Black Credit Card is getting discontinued,” the bank said in a statement. 

After May 15th, users will no longer be able to access the card dashboard on the Zomato app as the co-branded Edition credit cards will no longer be operational. Instead, RBL Bank will issue a replacement credit card called the “RBL Bank Shoprite Credit Card.”

Starting May 15th, RBL Bank will begin dispatching the new ‘RBL Bank Shoprite Credit Card’ to replace the existing Zomato Edition cards. Users will be able to avail all the benefits of the new card from the same date, and any outstanding dues or ongoing EMIs will be transferred to the new card, as per the bank.

Until May 14, Zomato customers can redeem all their cash back on the food delivery platform, after which any remaining balance will be automatically transferred to the new card by May 30.

The co-branded Edition credit cards, previously offered by Zomato and RBL Bank, provided users with 5-10% cashback on all spending through Zomato and Blinkit apps. The cards also enabled users to manage their cards and track spending within the Zomato app. Additionally, users could avail a complimentary Zomato Pro membership and access major domestic airport lounges.

The partnership between Zomato and RBL Bank for co-branded credit cards, Classic and Black Edition, has ended after three years. The deal was signed in March 2018 with Mastercard, and while the exact number of cards issued is unknown, it helped Zomato increase user loyalty while RBL brought in new customers for its fintech products.

Curiously, in January, Citibank and fintech startup Paytm terminated their co-branded credit card partnership.

Zomato’s decision to end its co-branded credit card offering is noteworthy, especially as other Indian startups are increasing their focus on such partnerships. Just a month ago, HDFC Bank and Flipkart Wholesale collaborated to introduce a co-branded credit card exclusively for Flipkart Wholesale members.

Prior to this, Tata New also entered into a partnership with HDFC Bank to introduce a co-branded credit card available in two variants.

Furthermore, in the same vein, Zomato’s rival Swiggy was reportedly discussing potential partnerships with various banks for a comparable program last year. It is also worth noting that Coca-Cola purchased an undisclosed stake of 15% in Thrive, a direct competitor of Zomato, on the same day that Zomato terminated its partnership with RBL Bank.

Mass Gainer

Building muscle is a challenging process, but it becomes even more difficult for some people.

For these individuals, a mass gainer supplement can be a game-changer.

Hardgainers are individuals who have a fast metabolism and find it difficult to gain weight and muscle mass. These individuals often have a lean body frame, small bone structure, and low body fat levels. They may also have a high tolerance for carbohydrates and struggle to consume enough calories to support muscle growth.

Hardgainers require a calorie surplus to gain muscle mass, which means they need to consume more calories than they burn. However, it can be challenging for them to consume enough calories through food alone. This is where mass gainers come in.

Importance of Mass Gainers for Hardgainers:

Mass gainers are supplements designed to help individuals consume a large number of calories in a single serving. They typically contain a blend of carbohydrates, protein, and fats that can help individuals meet their daily calorie and nutrient requirements.

For hardgainers, mass gainers can be a valuable tool in their muscle-building arsenal.

Dwayne Johnson eats 6 meals a day and here is why you should do the same

0
Dwayne Johnson

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is known for his impressive physique and strict diet, which includes eating six meals a day. While this may seem excessive to some, there are actually several reasons why you should consider adopting a similar eating pattern.

So, to give you a vague image of what to include in your diet, incase you’re trying to achieve the same physique as him, Dwane has: 

Meal 1: Johnson starts his day with a hearty breakfast that includes a combination of protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats. His go-to breakfast typically includes egg whites, oatmeal, and a piece of fruit.

Meal 2: For his mid-morning snack, Johnson usually reaches for a protein shake or a piece of fruit with some almonds or other nuts.

Meal 3: For lunch, Johnson typically eats a large portion of grilled chicken or fish, brown rice or sweet potatoes, and a vegetable like asparagus or broccoli.

Meal 4: Johnson’s mid-afternoon snack usually consists of another protein shake or a protein bar.

Meal 5: For dinner, Johnson enjoys a large portion of lean protein like grilled steak or salmon, along with a side of vegetables and a complex carbohydrate like brown rice or quinoa.

Meal 6: Johnson’s final meal of the day is a snack that includes cottage cheese or Greek yogurt, along with some nuts or fruit.

Science behind 6 meals a day

Boosts metabolism:

Eating smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day can help to boost your metabolism. This is because your body has to work harder to digest and absorb the nutrients from each meal, which burns more calories.

Promotes muscle growth:

Eating six meals a day can also help to promote muscle growth. By providing your body with a steady stream of nutrients, you can fuel your muscles and help them to recover and grow after workouts.

Prevents overeating:

Eating six small meals a day can also help to prevent overeating. When you go too long without eating, you may be more likely to reach for unhealthy snacks or eat larger portions at mealtime. By eating more frequently, you can keep hunger at bay and avoid overindulging.

Provides consistent energy:

Eating six meals a day can also help to provide you with consistent energy throughout the day. By avoiding large meals and sugar crashes, you can maintain steady blood sugar levels and avoid feeling sluggish or tired.

Allows for proper nutrient intake:

By spreading your meals out over the course of the day, you can ensure that you are getting all the nutrients your body needs. This can help to support overall health and well-being.

Word of Caution:

While the six meals a day diet may offer benefits such as boosting metabolism and preventing overeating, it’s important to approach this eating pattern with caution. Some studies suggest that eating more frequently may not necessarily lead to greater weight loss or metabolic benefits and basically we are breaking down the 3 meals of day in half to have 6 and not 6 big portions a day.

Consuming too many calories or overeating during each meal can negate the potential benefits of eating more frequently. It’s also important to ensure that each meal is balanced and provides all the necessary nutrients, rather than relying on processed or high-calorie snacks. As with any diet, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian to determine if the six meals a day diet is appropriate for your individual needs and goals.
