As a mom, I have always been worried about whether my child is eating well and getting all the nutrients she needs. She has always been a picky eater but always enjoyed her drinks in the form of smoothies and shakes.
Every morning for breakfast, my child loves to drink her favourite mango smoothie but she often complains of a stomach ache. This became a problem as the tummy ache would coincide with school timings. The evenings were no different and being a worried mom I kept trying something or the other.
After doing some research, I started giving her some fruits and plain milk separately to eat. The only problem now was that her school dress would get dirty and this just left me feeling overwhelmed. Besides, she had started to look pale and weak too.
After many painful mornings and evenings, an amazing thing came to my rescue. I was browsing online when I saw the ad for Tropicana Essentials Juices. It was like a mother’s prayer had been answered.
Tropicana Essentials juice is a blend of fruits and vegetables. It contains the correct ratio of the required amount of fruits and vegetables. On top of that one box of Tropicana juice is equivalent to two servings of fruits and vegetables.
The fact that it contained zero sugar and colour just made this even more attractive to me. It is also infused with vitamins, specifically vitamin A and vitamin C.
So now, my mornings and evenings are a lot happier and with zero tummy aches and tidy uniforms. Tropicana comes in tetra packs and my little one feels it’s more like a treat than a breakfast full of freggies.
Did you know that Tropicana juices also help fill the nutritional gap and improve the haemoglobin levels as well?
The best part is, it is affordable and will not burn a hole in your pocket. In fact, when we go out for movies or shopping trips, I always have a Tropicana tetra pack in my bag. God really did answer my prayers in the form of Tropicana. Their juices have been a saviour for my family. I too, enjoy one every other day. As a mom, I would definitely give this product a big thumbs up.
I would even like to share a few of my go-to Smoothie Recipes that Haniya totally loves:
