I discovered Provital Immuna Plus, an adult nutritious milk which is scientifically formulated for adults aged 40 and above. It contains Yeast Beta-Glucan, Selenium and Vitamin C which provide immunity strength. It is also high in calcium and protein to support mobility and muscle maintenance.
3 scoops of powder in 160ml of water twice a day is all it takes for this delicous and nourishing vanila flavoured milk to boost immunity. Try it for 3 months and check if you have flu or sore throat as frequently as before. Highly recommended for not only adults above 40 years old but also youths in their 30s.

Health is a fundamental aspect of our lives especially in this new normal here currently. In conjunction with the launch, Mead Johnson Nutrition shared vital insights into the perceptions and attitudes of Malaysians towards nutrition and immunity, gleaned from a survey conducted with close to 3,000 respondents recently. [4]. Amongst the key insights revealed by the survey was that there has been a positive shift in the level of awareness on topics of immune health amongst 60% of Malaysians since the pandemic, where 67.5% of respondents had consumed more nutritional products to strengthen their health. The survey also revealed that 44.5% of respondents believe that nutrition is a key factor for a strong immunity. This correlates with their behavioural changes in making healthier nutrition choices, where 91.5% of respondents have included more fruits and vegetables into their diet whilst about 60% have added or increased the intake of nutrition products. A large majority or 78.7% of respondents aged 40 and above think that their immunity levels grow weaker as they age.
“As immunity declines with age and the immune system become weaker, human bodies will become more susceptible to infections and illnesses. Proper nutrition which can aid in the development and maintenance of the immune system, together with a healthy stress-free lifestyle is one of the best ways to strengthen the immune system. Nutrients such as yeast beta-glucan is shown to enhance the immune system. Beta-glucan from different sources provide different health function, while yeast beta-glucan is the type of beta-glucan that support the immune system. [1,5,6].” Dr. Kent Woo shares.
