Canasta is made from potatoes and wheat that are thinly formed and through the process of making perfect baked goods, Canasta is expected to deliver the right texture and flavour that will create a cheerful atmosphere during "Fun Time" snacking.
"The majority of Indonesian teenagers like snacks with crunchy and savoury flavours.

A practical pillow pack and a unique bite size biscuit snack, makes Canasta the right choice to enjoy a "Fun Time" snacking moment, either alone or together, "explained Abraham Nandiwardhana.
In line with the areas of interest that are often pursued, Canasta's re-presence with new innovations will focus more on getting closer to adolescents through three aspects, namely Art - which raises the creative side, Sports - which promotes the active side, and Music - which raises the challenges of experimenting in life.

Good to Go was developed as a nutritional support for the activities of young urbanites who continue to want to excel in work [and play]. Launching Good to Go's new product is marked by introducing two proud Indonesian badminton athletes, Anthony Sinisuka Ginting and Jonatan Christie as brand ambassadors.
Young urbanites aged 20-35 years are active generation, motivated to work and perform. Their activities last from morning to night, full with ideas and high mobility. The demanding activities of young urbanites requires energy that must be maintained. Non-caffeine drinks, cereals, chocolates and fruit such as bananas and berries are foods that can prevent tiredness and restore energy.
Jonathan Setiawan, Senior Brand Manager of Liquid Milk of Dairy Division, said that "Good to Go from Indomilk is the first multi-cereal milk drink in Indonesia. The product is made from fresh milk and oats, brown rice, malt and wheat. Looking at the composition, Good to Go has low fat content as well as high sources of fiber and vitamins B1, B2, B3, and B6, which is needed by the body to continue to energize and function. With the two best variants, bananas - strawberries and chocolate -avocado, Good to Go is the right choice for young urbanites who want to stay energized and continue to Go all day".
"As a nutritional solution, Good to Go has become Indomilk's latest breakthrough to support the young urban Indonesian achievers in work [and play]. Good to Go is proud to be a part of the Go-Go Generation! "Said Jonathan Setiawan.
Go Generations with urban lifestyles, are increasingly aware of the importance of maintaining body-health, by exercising one to three times a week in the middle of a daily busy schedule. Coupled with their need to travel, surely young urbanites need extra energy that can be obtained from additional intake of nutrients from their normal daily consumption of food and beverages.
Related to nutrients required, Dr. Juwalita Surapsari, MGizi, SpGK explained, "Carbohydrates are the main nutrients the body needs as an energy source. However, the existence fiber in food sources as complex carbohydrates such as oats, brown rice, malt and wheat, causes glucose to be released slowly from carbohydrate digestion, to produce a steady and constant energy source for our body. In addition it can also bring a feeling of satiety and long term health for the body."
"Whilst vitamins B1, B2, B3 and B6 as well as minerals such as calcium and phosphorus also assist in producing the body's energy source, a selection of the right food and beverages will also support our body to always be energized. Therefore always choose food or beverages that contain complex carbohydrates, proteins, and vitamins and minerals," added Dr. Juwalita Surapsari.
On the same occasion, Indonesian top badminton athlete, Jonatan Christie revealed that, "As athletes, we have strict and routine training times as well. There are solid tournament schedules throughout the year, hence our daily life is focused on improving our games on the field and also performance records for each match. Therefore it is very important for us to pay attention to nutrient intake in order to maintain our prime physical conditions."
"Outside the training schedule and matches, we as young people need more energy to undergo other activities. Good to Go multi-cereal milk with delicious flavor, provides us with the energy to maintain our enthusiasm all day long, "said Anthony Sinisuka Ginting, completing Jojo's question.
"Through the availability of Good to Go we believe that young urbanites today need not fear of running out of energy in order, to realize their various dreams and aspiration, because Good to Go has the right ingredients to support activities and make them a Go-Go Generation!" said Jonathan Setiawan, in a closing remark.

Build Awareness of the Importance for a Healthy Lifestyle for Youth, Ruangguru - Indofood and PDRC FKM UI Launch the "Hidup Sehat Yuk!" Program
Jakarta, July 22nd, 2018 - Ruangguru, PT Indofood Sukses Makmur Tbk (Indofood), and Positive Deviance Resource Center of the University of Indonesia's Faculty of Public Health (PDRC FKM UI) announces collaboration and launched the Let's Live Healthly! (Hidup Sehay Yuk!) program, in the form of digital educational content about health that can be accessed in the Ruangguru application. This launch event was held at XXI Epicentrum, South Jakarta, where actor, Iqbaal Ramadhan and content creator Gita Savitri as Ruangguru's brand ambassador. The launch event was attended by more than 500 participants consisting of students, teachers, parents, and also the national media.
Based on the 2017 SDG baseline report on Indonesian children, issued by BAPPENAS and UNICEF, the double burden of malnutrition in Indonesia is a very serious problem. In 2013, 12% of children under 5 years old are wasted (low body weight compared to height) and the same amount overweight (overweight). Meanwhile in the same year stunting of children below 5 years of age, was around 37%.
With this insight, Indofood and PDRC FKM UI have taken the initiative to carry out education about the importance of a balanced nutrition and health for infants in the First 1000 Days of Life; Anaemia in Adolescents, Balanced Nutrition, and Adolescent Health, which were initially carried out through direct counselling, but now packaged in a much more modern and relevant approach to children's current learning style. Given the need for knowledge about nutrition to reach more young women in the future quickly, Indofood and PDRC FKM UI collaborate with Ruangguru, the biggest technology-based education service provider in Indonesia.
Director of Indofood who is also Co-Chair of Scaling Up Nutrition Business Network, Axton Salim, added, "Our main nutrition problem is stunting. Preventive efforts to reduce the nation's nutritional problems must start early as possible. We believe that education through digital applications is more suitable in line with the habits of generation Z, so this collaboration is expected to help reach more teenagers in a shorter time."
Now Ruangguru has more than 8.5 million users. Later, through the Ruangguru application, lessons content called 'Hidup Sehay Yuk!' will be available, which can be enjoyed by year 7-12 students. The content consists of learning videos, quizzes, summaries, and also topic exercises. "In Ruangguru, not only quality learning content are provided, but we also want to give more value. We believe children's intelligence is supported by health and balanced nutrition. Therefore, this collaboration is expected to have a broad impact on children in Indonesia", said Belva Devara, Ruangguru Co-Founder and CEO.
Professor of FKM UI, Prof. Dr. Endang L. Achadi, MPH., Dr.PH also said, "Health problems and nutrition must be treated immediately. Stunting, for example, is not just a matter of body size, but more importantly, stunted children are also likely to experience growth and barriers to the development of other organs, such as the brain, heart and kidneys, so that it will be affected cognitive abilities (intelligence) and the risk of various Non-Communicable Diseases (NCD) as adults, such as hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease. In addition, many health problems are faced by young women; Anaemia is caused by consumption of foods that are not balanced in nutrition. We are very appreciative of the collaboration carried out by Indofood and Ruangguru to help teens begin to realize the importance of nutrition and health, for a brighter and brilliant future for Indonesia."
The launch of this program was opened by Gita Savitri, who explained the facts and problems of health faced by adolescents, then continued by Iqbaal Ramadhan to explain the solutions made based on collaboration between Ruangguru, Indofood, and PDRC FKM UI. Both are figures of Indonesia's young generation, who cares about education in Indonesia. Iqbaal Ramadhan is an actor, musician and alumni student of the United World College, United States. While Gita Savitri, besides being a student at Freie Universität Berlin, is also active as a content creator, chosen to be Youtube's Creators for Change and acts as volunteers in several of countries. The event was closed with a quiz session for the audience, as well as musical performances from Iqbaal Ramadan, Gita Savitri and the Ruangguru team.

Encourage Mother to Express Herself When Cooking Bimoli Launches #ICOOKLIKETHIS campaign
Jakarta, 24 April 2018
A series of online and offline activities will be held to support enrichment and self-actualization of young mothers through cooking.
Food is one of the universal things that can bring happiness and strengthen to the family, therefore cooking activities carried out by mothers play a crucial role. From research on cooking behaviour carried out to 803 women, mostly aged 19-33 years in Greater Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya, Medan, Semarang, Makassar, and Samarinda from the beginning to mid 2017; Bimoli, quality cooking oil produced by PT Salim Ivomas Pratama Tbk, found that more and more Indonesian young mothers saw cooking as more of a duty and necessity, but also as a pleasure in itself. The results of the study state that young mothers, as 'The Joyful Giver', have their own unique way of making cooking one of their activities for expression, enrichment and self-actualization, and at the same time creates happiness for the family.
Therefore, today (24/4) at the Indofood Building Jakarta, Bimoli introduced its latest campaign, #ICOOKLIKETHIS, which is a manifestation of Bimoli's latest tagline, "Start with Happiness". Through the #ICOOKLIKETHIS campaign, Bimoli encourages young mothers to make cooking activities a place to experiment, show their creativity, and learn new things. Bimoli wants cooking activities to be a "happy place" for mothers, where they can freely do things that can make them happy, such as involving the people closest to them, whilst creating a new menu. The kitchen can also be a space for self-expansion for mothers to get out of their daily habits and explore various fun and new opportunities from cooking activities, especially with Bimoli cooking oil. With this campaign, mothers are expected to adhere to the principle that "happiness starts from me", mothers must feel happy first in order to make their families happy.
"Bimoli believes that the happiness of a mother has a significant influence on the happiness of her family and those around her. As the preferred cooking oil for Indonesian families from generation to generation, the #ICOOKLIKETHIS campaign is a form of Bimoli's commitment to continue to be relevant to young mothers. In this campaign aimed at The Joyful Giver who actively takes various roles in their dynamic lives, does not preclude their role to offer the best for their families", said Surya Dharmanto, Head of Marketing at PT Salim Ivomas Pratama Tbk.
The integrated campaign of #ICOOKLIKETHIS, combines a series of digital and offline activities. Digital or online activities include collaborating with several Online Influences to invite young mothers to join in this campaign, by sharing personal experiences on Instagram about the unique ways each mother can cook, especially fried foods.
While for offline activities, Bimoli sees that currently social cooking or cooking together as one of the beneficial activities for young mothers to share and an opportunity for self-actualization. Therefore, Bimoli launched the Bimoli Mobile Roadshow goes to Arisan in major cities in Indonesia, which invited several communities of young mothers to carry out their routine social gathering activities, using mobile kitchen truck facilities and other equipment provided by Bimoli. Through this activity, the community of young mothers who attended the social gathering will get the opportunity to cook c/i.e./local experienced, who will share tips and tricks on how to cook fried foods easily and pleasantly.
In addition, Bimoli also organised the Bimoli Fun Cooking Class with renowned chefs in shopping centres and Bimoli Picnic Day, inviting their mothers and families to enjoy togetherness on holidays with various fun activities facilitated by Bimoli.
In this event, Bimoli also invited Tyna Kanna Mirdad as a guest star and also an Online Influencer who joined the #ICOOKLIKETHIS campaign. "I've always enjoyed cooking, especially frying, and collecting various food recipes. Sometimes, cooking is a lone time for me to listen to my favourite music. Usually when cooking whilst I play my music, my family understands that I am seriously looking for fried recipes that are suitable and that my family will like. From experimenting with favourite fried food recipes whilst listening to music, consequently the bitterballen business was born, which I am currently in", said Tyna.
Based on research conducted by Bimoli, almost everyone likes fried foods with a distinctive aroma, crispy, and taste delicious. So enjoying fried foods is a fun thing and strengthens togetherness. In order to produce delicious fried foods, high-quality cooking oil is needed. Therefore, Bimoli is here to complement The Joyful Giver's happiness and reduce their burden of frying, since Bimoli cooking oil has a stable temperature, the Joyful Giver can feel calm, because the food produced can be perfectly cooked and in accordance with their expectations. This is thanks to several advantages of Bimoli, such as:
1.	Made from the best seeds of the best oil palm in the world, namely, Tenera.
2.	Implement good governance for plantations with a commitment to manage and preserve the environment.
3.	The use of Golden Refinery technology that is capable of producing cooking oil that is heat-resistant, has a stable heat temperature, is not easy to shrink, and produces food that cooks well, both inside and outside.
"As a family-owned cooking oil brand in Indonesia, established in 1978, Bimoli has carried out various innovations, ranging from qualities, variants, slogans, packaging and marketing strategies. The presence of the #ICOOKLIKETHIS campaign is an emphasis on the Bimoli philosophy, which believes that every woman has their own style of cooking and Bimoli is here to support every woman with their unique style of cooking, "Surya closed.

So both PERGIZI PANGAN and Indofood consider it necesseties to continue this as a contribution to efforts in improving the nation's nutrition. The purpose of this Healthy Breakfast Education is to remind and encourage the community, especially school children and adolescents to apply well-balanced nutritional behavior, one of which is to eat a healthy breakfasts, namely consuming a nutritious and wholesome food and beverage that meets 15-30% of the nutritional requirements in the morning, before doing any activities or going to school, before 9 am.
Indofood's Head of Corporate Communications, Stefanus Indrayana, revealed "We always realize that in serving food with a balanced nutrition, we will be able to optimize children's growth and development so that their generation will become healthy and intelligent. Hence, we continue to encourage Indonesian families to be aware of the importance of nutrition, by serving a varied and complete breakfast full of nutrients".

Indomilk Supports 500,000 Indonesian Children Achieve Brilliance
Jakarta, December 12th, 2017 - PT. Indolakto is one of the subsidiaries of PT Indofood CBP Sukses Makmur Tbk (ICBP) that provides support to 500,000 Indonesian children through their Brilliant Indonesian Children Program (Gemilang Anak Indonesia), as part of the 50th anniversary of Indomilk. Various facilities for inspiration were provided by Indomilk for 50 national schools to develop Indonesia's children's potential. Indomilk visited more than 1,500 schools in 5 major cities such as Jabodetabek, Bandung, Surabaya, Malang and Bali to instil the values of Brilliance and provide nutrition education to children aged 6 - 12 years.
Vanda Ratana, General Manager of Marketing for Indomilk Liquid Milk at PT Indolakto explained, "Indomilk wishes to inspire every Indonesian child to have noble values, to always be excited, dare to try and never give up in reaching their goals ". Indomilk also gives appreciation to parents, teachers and schools that play an important role in the life of a child, with various inspirational means.
Therefore, Indomilk introduced the Gemilang Anak Indonesia Program, which provides a variety of inspirational facilities, such as the Reading Room Facility to increase knowledge, sharpen creativity and build empathy for others, so they will be more concerned with their surrounding environment. Sports facilities to motivate children to always be active, constructive, confidence, sportsmanship, ability to work together and leadership skills needed for their future. In addition, Indomilk also provides English Language Facilities, the language used by more than 105 countries in the world, so that children are better prepared to face global competition.
Tara de Thouars, a well-known Indonesian psychologist explained "Children who are 'healthy' are children who are not only physically healthy but also emotionally healthy. Every child certainly has interests and different abilities. The broad spectrum of abilities should be explored while they quickly absorb information. Parents and schools must support children to have the courage to try new things. Construction of facilities by Indomilk is a positive support to foster hope that more Indonesian children will be more daring to dream and have supporting facilities to achieve goals and reach their potential. "
To support the spirit and struggle of Indonesian children, Indomilk also presents a story of the brilliant inspiration of Indonesian children who want to reach their dreams. Among them is Pasha, an 11-years-old gymnast who became Indonesia's gymnastic legend and managed to get the gold medal in international gymnastics competitions in the Philippines, because for Pasha, losing does not mean giving up, but it is a sign to get up to continue to practice and achieve one's glory. Nur Salim, a child who has proven to himself and his environment that dreams knows no boundaries, with high enthusiasm and an unyielding spirit, he succeeded in showing that the limitations that we possess, are not obstacles to progress in achieving brilliant ideals. And Nyimas Bunga, a 10-years-old skater girl whose persistence and perseverance won her first place in the skateboard competition at both local and international levels. Nyimas proves that 'can' is the result of hard work and enthusiasm to keep trying to achieve her brilliant dreams.
Indomilk also invites parents to jointly commit in supporting Brilliant Indonesian Children Program, by sharing stories on the website; www.indomilk.com/gemilang. "We hope what we do through Gemilang Anak Indonesia Program can be a passion for 'The next generation to continue to develop'," concluded Vanda.

The presence of www.masakapaya.com greatly helped me every day to deal with the question 'What to Cook?' Especially in times like Ramadan where I have to make children's food tasteful, every day.

Indofood Holds 2017 National Symposium & Chili Book Review: "Potential Agribusiness Development and Chili Agro-Industry
Jakarta, October 18th, 2017. In commemoration of World Food Day (October 16, 2017), PT Indofood Sukses Makmur Tbk (Indofood), through the Indofood Research Nugraha (IRN) Program, held a National Symposium and Chili Book Review on "Potential Agribusiness Development and Chili Agro-Industry".The objective of the symposium is to formulate appropriate recommendations on realistic targets to solve problems of instability on the price of chili; especially through the chili agribusiness and agro-industry development; targetting large-scale independent chili producers of Indonesia.
This event is motivated by chilli as a commodity, a unique agricultural product, which is consumed in small quantities (micro), but the upheaval in domestic chili prices affects the economy of the community, in fact has a significant role in the Indonesian macro economy. In 2016, for example, Bank Indonesia stated that chili prices is one of the main sources of inflation. Where since the beginning of 2016, the price of chili is contributing to 16.1 percent of the inflation component.
Director of PT Indofood Sukses Makmur Tbk, Franciscus Welirang said the national symposium and book review is a development of the IRN Program, the Corporate Social program Responsibility of Indofood, which provides research funding in the field of food for undergraduate students. "Indofood as a food company has a vision to be a Total Food Solutions Company, who wish to contribute on solving national food issues. At the National Symposium this time, discussion has focussed to find a solution that is right on target, concrete and tangible to reduce price fluctuations of chili which can trigger inflation through the chili agribusiness and agro-industry commodities."
Prof. Dr. FG Winarno, chairman of the IRN Expert Team revealed "Often we face supply conditions of fresh chillies that does not accord with market demand, thus fluctuations in the price of chili is inevitable. The fluctuations in the supply of chili are caused by various factors, including seasonal and also the problem of plant diseases.

Four Right Solutions for Children Growth
Promina socializes its four right criteria: the right texture, flavor choices, a complete set of nutrition intakes and the right life stage, factors that help shaping healthy eating habits since early age.
Healthy eating habits protect children from becoming picky eaters. Mothers need to introduce breast-milk complementary food ("MPASI") and four right solutions for children's nutrition completeness.
Jakarta, November 12th 2016 – As one of Indonesia's largest baby food producers, Indofood Nutrition from PT Indofood CBP Sukses Makmur Tbk ("ICBP") establishes partnership with the 2016/2017 Medical Doctor Graduation Committee from the Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia to conduct a Seminar and Training Session in The Right Nutrition for Babies and Infants as part of the Annual Scientific Meeting CIPRIME "Current Issue in Pediatric Nutrition & Metabolic Problems". The two-day seminar was held on November 12-13 in Grand Sahid Jakarta Hotel, attended by leading health experts and practitioners as well as the press.
As a fortified MPASI brand from ICBP's Nutrition and Special Food ("NSF") Division, Promina gave support to the event in line with its mission to improve children nutrition through innovation of quality products. Promina understands every parent's wishes of healthy, growing and thriving children. Parents play a crucial role in introducing health eating habits to their children. Early introduction of healthy eating habits is important for optimum children growth. "In these seminar series, Promina socializes the following four right criteria for children's food products:
1.	The right texture
2.	Rich flavor choices
3.	Complete set of nutrition intakes
4.	The right life stage
that help introducing healthy eating habits for children," according to ICBP NSF Division's Scientific and Medical Program, Andri Susanti.
DR. dr. Damayanti Sjarif, Sp.A (K), Division Head of Nutrition and Metabolic Diseases, Department of Pediatric FKUI, RSCM, shares that "Healthy eating habits can be introduced since the baby is born, by providing exclusive breast milk during the first six months. After six months, infants have to consume food supplements with rich nutrition content to fulfill their energy, protein and micronutrient requirements, such as iron, zinc, calcium, phosphor, magnesium and vitamin A. If their nutrition requirements are fulfilled, infants can grow optimally."
Dr. Damayanti adds that since in their mother's wombs, embryos can sense the different tastes of amniotic fluids and as they grow, children develop their understanding of food taste complexities. Therefore, it is important to encourage children to experiment with various food tastes. The more diverse the food tastes the children are exposed to, the lower their chance in becoming picky eaters.
"In preparing the breast-milk complementary food, mothers need to consider a list of criteria from the World Health Organization on food guidelines for babies and infants, namely time consistency, the right nutrition, safe and proper feeding in terms of the right texture based on infant's age, taste assortments, and responsive feeding," explains DR. dr. Sri Sudaryati Nasar, Sp.A(K)., Pediatrician, Nutrition and Metabolic Diseases Consultant.
Physical and Rehabilitation Specialist Doctor, dr. Luh Karunia Wahyuni, Sp.KFR(K), adds "Eating skills need to be learned through the right stimulation. As children develop their eating skills according to their age, they need to be introduced to the right food texture. Start with smooth cereals at 6 month, then introducing soft cereals or chopped food in 8 month and above, and family food at 12 month".
Mothers need to practice responsive feeding to ensure a pleasurable eating experience for their children. "Eating process does not only aim at providing nutrition intakes but also affect children's psychological growth. Introducing eating process as a pleasurable experience helps creating a closer mother and children bonding, as well as stimulating children's psychological growth", shares dr. Tjhin Wiguna, Sp. KJ(K), Children and Adolescent Psychiatrist.
To support Indonesian children's nutrition intake, especially during their First One Thousand Days, Promina introduces the four right criteria with health and nutrition experts, midwives and Health Post (posyandu) cadres. Through its fortified MPASI quality products, Promina hopes it can contribute to the development of well-nutritioned, smart, active and creative Indonesian generation. With its right texture to stimulate oromotoric skills, selection of flavors to help mothers in introducing taste varieties and preventing children from becoming of picky eaters, a complete set of nutrition rich in macro and micro nutritional content that children need, as well as the most complete set of products for children of all ages, namely 6 month, 8 month and 12 month and above, Promina is the right product to help introducing healthy eating habits to support optimum children growth.

ICBP Launches Indonesia's First Purple Sweet Potato Flavored SUN Variant
Purple sweet potatoes are rich with anthocyanin content, effective to support health endurance of babies and are natural source of antioxidants
Jakarta, October 3rd 2016 – Breast milk is the best baby feeding. Breastfeeding is sufficient during the first 6 months of infants. On top of its nutrition content for infant growth, breast milk also contains substances that improve infants' immune system. After 6 months, breast feeding needs to be supplemented with complementary foods that offer high nutrition values to increase infants' strength and ensure their optimum growth.
During infant growth period, 70% to 80% of their immune cells are created within the digestive tract. However, physiologically, infants' digestive tract has yet to function properly as the infants' immune system. Therefore, infants are prone to indigestion problems while they develop a healthy digestive system to absorb nutrition from the food.
"Recognizing the critical period during infant growing period, SUN, a brand for fortified complementary food from PT Indofood CBP Sukses Makmur Tbk (ICBP), introduces the purple sweet potato flavor. This is the first fortified complementary food in Indonesia that uses purple sweet potato as an alternative source of carbohydrate, replacing rice. The new product contains more than 30% of purple sweet potato with rich anthocyanin content - a healthy natural antioxidant to support infants' strength. As with other variants, the new purple sweet potato flavored SUN variant is also fortified with 11 different vitamins and 7 minerals", says Desi Hendradiani, SUN Brand Manager, Nutrition & Special Foods Division ICBP (during SUN Purple Sweet Potato Launching Conference held in Wyl's Kitchen, Jakarta).
"Purple sweet potato is considered as one of the local super food, given its high beta-carotene and anthocyanin contents. Using the right processing approach, we can produce purple sweet potato food products that are nutritious, durable and safe to be consumed as complementary food even for young infants. Fortified complementary foods from purple sweet potato offer not just complete and balanced nutrition content, but also high natural antioxidant, anthocyanin and beta-carotene contents," adds Prof. Dr. Ir. Ali Khomsan, MS., Professor, Community Nutrition Department, Bogor Institute of Agriculture.
Dr. Julistio Djais, Sp.A (K), M.Kes, pediatrician and children nutrition consultant, says, "Adequate nutrition intake and healthy digestion will improve children's endurance system. Mothers need to pay attention to the nutrition content of their children's food. On top of containing macro nutrition ingredients, children's food also need to contain micro nutrition ingredients, such as iron, zinc, vitamins and other minerals. Children's digestion health is also influenced by its bacterial balance. Consumption of fibers and anthocyanin with probiotics also play a role in maintaining the bacterial balance of the digestion system, thus help preserving the health of the digestion system that translates to children's immune system."
"The launching of the purple sweet potato flavored is one of the effort of SUN, a fortified complementary food brand that has supported Indonesian mothers for over 25 years, in ensuring sufficient intake of nutrition for the country's young generation. This innovation is an evidence of Indofood Nutrition's commitment in supporting the government's program to address the country's food and nutrition problems. SUN is confident that sufficient consumption of nutrients for infants will ensure their optimum growth and help creating the Country's Healthy Generation," closes Desi.

CalciSkim Steps-in as a Solution for Women Who Wish to Look Good Longer Inside and Outside
CalciSkim Presents the Holistic Approach of Complete Bone Protection
Jakarta, 12 December 2013 – Today's lifestyle requires women to always present themselves in their best performance, be it in professional life as well in their personal life. Those who are in their productive age, particularly between 20-30 years old, generally pay more attention to external appearance instead of their internal health quality. This topic was discussed in a talk show session marking the re-launched of CalciSkim, non-fat high calcium milk completed with CBP™, vitamin D, protein and FOS, produced by PT Indolakto the business unit of PT Indofood CBP Sukses Makmur Tbk ("ICBP"), today at Sudirman Plaza Indofood Tower.
"We saw women today, especially who live in urban cities, have the opportunities for an optimum self-actualization. More than 55% of women in their productive age who live in urban area are workers. To them, there is this social pressure and high demand to always perform in their best shape, to appear in their finest term and for being fashionable during their long hour of activities.", stated Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) ICBP, Anastasia Sutadji. "Women want to stay active, look beautiful and willing to do experiment in the way they dress. Beyond conscious, health - predominantly bones health - is being excluded from their frame. Women often think that outside look on body are more important, whereas in reality, bones health quality declines faster than any other outside part of appearance."
Corporate Marketing Manager ICBP, Prita Utami added, "Indomilk as one of the leading dairy brands in Indonesia, looked into the opportunity to reach young adult women group which is currently not being managed optimally. Optimum benefit from calcium will be experienced only if it is being consumed since the earliest stage, that is before the bones reach their peak mass stage – or at the age of 30. To convince this group age, who is normally focus only on today's self-actualization, we take relevant approach by offering a solution so that women can be active and look good longer."
CalciSkim presents an integrated concept of Complete Bone Protection. Brand Manager CalciSkim PT Indolakto, Ivy Irawati explained, "CalciSkim is equipped with complex formula consists of important nutrition including the calcium, vitamin D, Prebiotic Fructo Oligo Saccharide (FOS) or fiber, and CBP™ (Colostrum Bone Protein) – an active component which helps accelerate bones regeneration process. CalciSkim also promotes healthy life and a fashionable look that support healthy bones."
Medical Sport Specialist, dr. Grace Tumbelaka, Sp.K.O who pays attention to current lifestyle accentuated, "The young group is usually care less about their internal organs health by seeing that bones problem is an exclusive issue for the old people. For today, they pay attention mostly only to their external beauty. In fact, one's health quality – including the bones health quality – may be older than her real physical age. Ostheoporosis or the declining bones mass is one among many problems faced by the bones. The threats, unconsciously, may come from the daily lifestyle."
Nutritionist, Dr. dr. Inge Permadhi, MS, SpGK, described, "Calcium is one of the most important minerals to body which mainly functions to protect bones health. Our body system is continuously replacing small portion of calcium in the bones with the new one, known as bone remodeling process. To keep our bones density, we will need adequate calcium intake obtained from our diets. Unfortunately calcium cannot be produced naturally by our body, and therefore must be obtained from outside source. High calcium milk is the best form of calcium easy to absorb by the body."
She complemented that phosphate in milk, is another essential component important to form a strong bones. While vitamin D and fructo oligo sachharide (FOS) fiber are known to help absorbing calcium from the gastroduodernal (the digesting canal).
Nevertheless, for a perfect bones health, it is necessary to run a health life, "Besides consuming sufficient calcium quantity important for the bones, strengthening exercise in moderate intensity needs to be done regularly at least 30 minutes on daily basis, because bones basically needs to be trained and pressed by burden eventhough may not be over capacity," dr. Grace added.
Putting balance weight on bones can be managed by a simple tips, keep a standard load of bags or carried things not more than 10-15% of the total body mass. While to keep the overall body balance and to prevent aching on the knee and the backbone, it is recommended to not wearing shoes with heels over than 5 cm.
"Therefore, please start taking good care of your bones deposit wisely to make you look good longer. It's never too late, bones density must be invested since the earliest stage, do not wait until you grow old, start taking more calcium now!", dr. Inge concluded.
