Soon after its invention, the factory moved out to the village of Neuenegg , a few kilometers west of Berne, where it is still produced. Ovomaltine was exported to Britain in ; a misspelling of the name on the trademark registration application led to the name being shortened to Ovaltine in English-speaking markets. Horlicks is the name of a company and of a malted milk hot drink developed by the founders James and William Horlick. Check out my related post: How to move the tummy and soul?
You are right about the Milo successful campaign. Until today I still drink Milo and this habit also pass on to my kids. Hopefully Milo will continue to strive amid competition from other brands. Like Liked by 2 people. Good stuff! Hope to pass on the goodness to the kids as well! However, in my heart and for nostalgia sake, hope that Ovaltine and Horlicks can still survive so that we have more options in the market. Like Liked by 1 person.
My mother still buys either Milo or Ovaltine , whatever is available here in the US… Filipino stores here sell these two brands. My mother remembers Horlicks. Like Like. You took me back to my childhood days in Guyana, a British colony until My mother believed that Horlicks was a great tonic for helping us with our studies.
I hated the taste. I have only heard of Ovaltine and never tried it. Maybe I should. Thanks for following my blog. Wow, it has been years since I have seen the Milo logo. I used to drink the stuff when I was younger, but it has vanished in recent times. Over here Horlicks is more famous, as I hail from a British colony.
Fun read. So it makes sense in ex: India to have it simply for all the vitamins in the drink. Good point. The calories are a kicker due to the malted sugar content but it gives you that little oomph to start your day or keep it going.
Thanks for sharing! Ovaltine is a drink we used at bedtime to relax before going to bed. But some of my friends certainly do that. Milo as a start to the day! I have been drinking Ovaltine hot or cold since I was a child.
I also have had Horlicks but in Canada where I live it is not so easy to find. Milo is what I drink when I am in the US as that is what is in the stores here.
I think that is must be made somewhere different or with a slightly different recipe. I believe you are right. They change the tastes as they move across countries. Some of my friends in the States have Horlicks sweets shipped to them. So you have a way to get your Horlicks fix! Like Liked by 3 people. Loved reading this. Probably would have liked this too! Food brings back memories. I used to hate veggies but hey, guess what. Started chomping on those carrots that brought back those wonderful times.
It was better tasting than Milo then. But hey, I love the Ovaltine tablet candies very much. I must spend some time studying much more or figuring out more. Thank you for great info I used to be searching for this info for my mission. Oh my goodness! Awesome article dude! Is there anybody else having the same RSS problems? Anyone that knows the solution will you kindly respond? Interesting read. Growing up on the East Coast of the States.
We had Ovaltine when we were kids. We also had a couple of choices for Chocolate Syrup. But the powdered versions were limited. I never heard of the other two that you mentioned. Hello abetterman You have such good advertising and production advice, perhaps Milo should hire you as their front man…the compensation would surely make you abetterman…and a richer one.
They are much appreciated. You write well and I shall also check out your blogs from time to time. Are you actually corresponding to me from Singapore?
You have a tremendous following. Thanks for letting me know! Ha ha, I wish! Trying my best and improving every day. YEs I am in SIngapore. Stay in touch and keep drinking that malted milk! Hi there! Looking through this post reminds me of my previous roommate! He always kept preaching about this. I am going to forward this post to him.
I have already commented on your blog about Ovaltine. You also have a great following of readers. Sipping a Horlicks before bed will ensure you sleep like a baby. The extract of malt is the main ingredient. Its snooze-inducing powers are well known, with Horlicks marketed as a drink which is perfect to drink before bed, and this is certainly the case. Malted milk contains a good source of vitamin B, iron, zinc, magnesium and phosphorous.
The Advertising Standards Authority ASA has also banned an advert for a brand of Nestle noodles which claimed to strengthen muscles and bones. Horlicks is a sweet malted milk hot drink powder developed by founders James and William Horlick. In the early 20th century it was sold as a powdered meal replacement drink mix. One theory for why Horlicks works is its combinations of vitamins plus folic acid and iron. In addition, a warm drink before bedtime increases then lowers body temperature which is also thought to aid sleep , which is why some people believe a hot bath helps.
Horlicks Light. This malted drink comes in powdered form — just add hot water. One 32g serving gives you almost 16g total sugars.
While some comes from lactose , about half of it almost 2tsp counts as part of your 7tsp 30g daily maximum of free sugars. The Horlicks recipe has not changed , either in its recipe , the ingredients we use or in nutritional values. However, the powder production process has had to change because an old production line had come to the end of its life and has been replaced with new more modern equipment.
Horlicks is scientifically proven to improve power of milk. Horlicks is now available in 4 exciting and yummy flavors — Classic malt, Chocolate, Elaichi, Kesar Badam.
Enjoy with a cup of hot milk or a glass of cold milk. The powder may also contain eggs, sugar, cocoa, flavors and other additives that are included by the manufacturer. To make a malt milk drink — simply measure out the recommended quantity of powder into a mug. Add a small amount of milk or water and stir into a paste. Then fill up the mug with milk or water. Using milk makes the drink richer, while using water gives a lighter consistency. Malted drinks can be made with cold milk but the usual option is to drink it as a hot drink.
Ovomaltine was first developed in Switzerland and is still made in the original village of Neuenegg, near to Bern. Over the years, Ovaltine was exported around the globe. Additional products such as breakfast cereals, chocolate bars, parfaits and cookies are also produced under the Ovaltine range. Horlicks was developed in the early 20th century by founders James and William Horlick.
It was first marketed as a drink for infants and invalids. Horlicks then expanded to include the aged and travelers, and later advertised as a powdered meal replacement drink.
It also took on the label of being a nutritional supplement, under the GlaxoSmithKline label in the United Kingdom and other countries around the globe.
In , the Horlicks Company was acquired by mega-giant Unilever. The liquid that is extracted is known as the whey. The original formulation contained protein in the form of eggs, but most variations today no longer include eggs. When you add a glass of milk of around 8oz to your Ovaltine powder, you will get an additional 8 grams of protein. Ovaltine provides a fair amount of the daily nutrients we require to maintain a healthy body and lifestyle.
Ovaltine offers a high level of Vitamin D, which is vital to maintain healthy bones and teeth. It is also high in Vitamin B6, which is needed for proper brain development in children. Vitamin B6 also helps the body cope with stress. Ovaltine is currently selling on Amazon.
Ovaltine is sold as a nutrient-rich drink, great for growing kids and adults alike. It also claims to soothe and relax the mind and body. Like many manufactured products, with added ingredients, there are a few cons. High levels of sugar — The negative that I found with Ovaltine is that it contains a high level of added sugar. The American Heart Association recommends that women and children limit their daily sugar intake to 25 grams.
If you are a man, you can increase this to around 36 grams of sugar per day. Too much sugar puts you at risk for weight gain, heart disease and diabetes. At grams of sugar per serving, you are getting a large dose of your daily average and would have to carefully monitor additional sugar intake. Dairy products contain high levels of Lactose. Lactose intolerance affects many people. It is the inability of your intestine to break down the natural sugar called lactose.
If you suffer from Lactose intolerance you may experience nausea, cramps, gas, bloating, and diarrhea. Ovaltine is not for you. Consuming too many dairies can cause acne in teens and also raises cholesterol levels.
For children who are allergic to milk, Ovaltine should be avoided. Reading the list of ingredients, one would not see Ovaltine as a bad or harmful drink! However, it was banned in Denmark — which will certainly make you sit up and ask why? Denmark has very strict food safety laws that restrict foods fortified with vitamins or minerals. In Denmark banned Ovaltine due to its added ingredients. In particular, the added ingredients that caused the ban were Vitamin D and Folate.
To give some context — Vegemite was also banned in Denmark.
