1. What are the good things about this product?
 Milo offers essential vitamins and minerals to meet the nutrition and energy demands of young
bodies and minds. It has long been known as an energy beverage strongly associated with sports and
good health. MILO, as a beverage, is a good source of nutrients such as vitamins B2, B3, B6, B12, C &
D and minerals like calcium and iron for children.
2. What are the bad things about this product?
 The bad thing about this Milo product is it contains more sugar than its other ingredients like malt,
cocoa and milk. And researches proved that beverages that has a high amount of sugar tends to
increase the triglycerides and fat levels in your blood, and higher triglycerides increase your risk of
heart disease. (Triglycerides is a type of fat in the blood.)
3. What nutrition grade should this product get? (examples:A, B+, C-) Write the grade in the Nutrition
Grade circle above.
 The nutritional grade this product should get is B.

4. What do you think is a healthier alternative for this product?

 The healthier alternative for this product is a milk. A fresh milk should be better but since powdered
milk are more affordable, then I would like to recommend a Bear Brand product for children and a
Bear Brand Adult Plus for adults. What's good in this is that there is a product for adults that is
specially made and fortified with adults' level of nutrients that their body needs to be stronger amd
healthy.
