Tg hot pouch range (updated) - GTA 1 stars - ETP logo
Move over acai and goji berry, here comes JUJUBE!  Tg Green Tea wins Great Taste Award Gold Stars….including 1 blend containing an exciting new superfruit.
The world’s most coveted blind-tasted food awards, Great Taste, has just released the Great Taste stars of 2015 and Hua and Sophia, co-founders of a new London-based beverage company Tg Green Teas, are amongst the producers celebrating Gold star wins. 

 Tg Green Teas recently won a gold star for two of its hot blends, namely Green Tea and Green Tea with Jujube & Osmanthus. The Great Taste Award judges also noted their discovery of a tasty new fruit, the JUJUBE, during their feedback.

TG Green Tea Ingredient JujubeSo just what is this delicious new superfruit – the jujube?
  • Jujube fruit or Chinese red date (hong zao 红枣) – pronounced “joo-joob” – has been cultivated in China for more than 4,000 years.
  • Having the texture and flavour of an apple when eaten ripe, the jujube tastes of sweet dates or plums when left to dry, the latter being the more common way folks enjoy these fruits in many food dishes & drink cocktails. 
  • Considered the “King of Vitamin C”, Jujubes have been used over centuries to help enhance health and vitality in so many ways it’s earned the title of “super fruit” across Asia.
  • Collagen-laden “beauty drinks” don’t do much for you apart from loading you up with more sugar as the collagen in the drink will never reach the skin but be broken down in the stomach as more energy – better to consume food & drink naturally containing vitamin C and drink lots of water.
  • We say “an apple a day keeps the doctor away”. The Chinese say “ 3 jujubes a day keeps the medicine man at bay”.

It's World Obesity Day but has anything really changed?

It’s #WorldObesityDay today. 2/3 of Britons are overweight or obese, up from 1/2 just 20 years ago. I am one of those statistics but am doing my best to change things, for me and for communities here and abroad. A research physician & I invested our life savings to develop a truly healthier drink to help wean us off our sugar habit. It’s better than virtually all of the new drinks offered by big companies to retailers.  WATCH this 1 min World Obesity Day VIDEO However, a big UK supermarket told us yesterday that unless we spent £££££s with them, we would not be stocked. Despite all the promises made to be more responsible, retailers are continuing to fill shelves with certain food & drink, simply because big companies have deeper pockets. These restrictive practices happen not just in the UK but all over the world.  This plea is not about a drink I want to promote. There will be other startups with better products too. How much money do retailers, manufactu...

Is Pokemon Go Google's new weapon in the Anti-Obesity war?

What is Pokémon Go? Really, you don't know? Pokémon Go is a free smartphone app that was developed by Niantic Inc ., a San Francisco software development company that started life as an internal startup at Google . Since July 6th 2016, it's been downloaded by millions of folks all over the US, Canada, UK, Europe, Australia and New Zealand with launches in new countries happening weekly. In Pokémon Go , you take on the role of a Pokémon trainer in the search for 700+ Pokemons (fictional characters created in a mid-1990s Nintendo game for GameBoy ) to train to battle each other for sport. The augmented reality game uses your phone’s GPS location to place your character and other game elements in a map of of your current location. By changing your location (through walking, running or.....ahem....driving), you can virtually "catch" wild Pokémons that are near you, train them to make them more powerful, and later battle your Pokémons to take control of local gyms...

Eat 10 fruit and veg per day is unhelpful advice

Kantar continues to report folks manage to eat on average just over 3 fruits & vegetables a day despite years of encouraging folks to aim for 5 a day. Now, researchers from Imperial College London are urging folks now to up fruit & veg intake to 10 per day [link to research press release ]. 10 a day. Researchers risk folks doing little more than throwing in the towel in despair, especially in the short term. In any event, looking just at fruit & veg's impact on cardiovascular health is too narrow a research focus in my view.  It would be more helpful if researchers looked at a broader basket of food & drink especially green tea , whole grains, spices and certain nuts. This might give us a better chance at improving overall health & wellbeing! Sophia Nadur www.drinktg.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/sophianadur/
