Fruit Spreads World of Chia World of Chia is making the goal of consuming more fruits and vegetables easier to achieve with a line of fruit spreads that incorporate natural chia seeds instead of industrial pectin. One tablespoon per day of chia seeds can deliver 3 grams of n-3 fatty acids; 6 grams of fiber; as well as essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. They’re also a source of plant protein, containing all of the nine essential amino acids. In addition to the health benefits, chia seeds may also help release sugars into the body’s bloodstream more slowly. This potential glucose-regulating ability is enhanced by the natural and organic agave syrup with which World of Chia Fruit Spreads are sweetened. A low glycemic index sweetener, agave is acceptable for diabetic persons. World of Chia Fruit Spreads contain only 5g of sugar per serving, and only 30 calories per serving. World of Chia Fruit Spreads are all natural, with no added acids, pectin, gluten, cane sugar, preservatives, colorants, and flavors. They are also naturally acidified with lime juice.

nucleotides. This new formula enhances the existing product to allow the benefits of our clinically proven surgical nutrition protocol to better apply to a broader group of patient, specifically those who are overweight or obese at the time of surgery and/or those patients with diabetes. Additionally, the smaller portion size (6 oz) is designed to help promote patient compliance to the 5 day pre- and post-operative protocols.

This in turn

provides additional confidence patients are able to receive all the benefits from their recommended regimen. For more information, visit www.nestlehealthscience.us. November 2016 Volume 116 Number 11

ELMM Bite Technologies The ELMM makes weight loss simpler. While devices tracking exercise are becoming increasingly prevalent, devices designed to automatically track calorie intake have been slow to reach the

market, leaving dieters to the difficult task of manually recording calories. The ELMM is a digital watch that does a few other amazing things: automatically records bites, gives realtime feedback when full, and counts steps. The ELMM watch can help individuals consistently consume the right amount of bites (and therefore, the right amount of calories) for to achieve weight goals over time—without a special diet plan—and saving the user time. Knowing when to stop eating empowers individuals to lose weight without the harmful and discouraging yo-yo effect caused by fad diets and difficult calorie counting methods. The user presses a button to start the ELMM and then eats normally. The device tracks bites by sensing turns of the wrist. An alarm sounds when the user hits a preset limit.
