Health drinks are beneficial for healthy. But do they actually work?Malted beverages are popularly known as health drinks in India. While marketers have positioned such beverages as nutritious drinks, these are widely consumed as taste enhancers to encourage drinking of milk among growing children.

You don’t need us to remind you that a well-balanced diet is essential for living a healthy life if you’re reading this post. You probably don’t need us to remind you that sticking to a diet might be difficult! After all, life throws us a few curveballs: we get busy, appetites arise, and we may not have time to eat a full meal… We understand; after all, we are all human! This is when the power of healthy drinks could come in handy. Your health goals could be as close as a cool fruit juice, a hot cup of tea, a reviving protein shake, or an all-in-one powerhouse like Horlicks or other such. Here are five reasons why, in addition to eating nutritious foods, you should do so.

5 Important benefits of drinking healthy

Convenience

You’re done after a great big gulp! A drink is convenient for more reasons than just the snack-in-ten-seconds appeal. It’s lightweight and easy to transport in a flask or bottle, making it excellent for travels, treks, bike rides, and even the office. Health powdered variants have the extra benefit of only requiring the addition of water or milk. Furthermore, there are occasions when you are unable to eat due to illness or injury; nutritious liquids are a terrific substitute that will keep you satiated.

Delicious

We wouldn’t be drawn to something if it didn’t cause our brains to release dopamine, would we? It’s difficult to strike the right balance between taste and health. Nature has thankfully provided us with a variety of options: natural sugars and sweeteners can satisfy hunger without the use of added sugar. Drinks that are both healthy and tasty can be created quickly. Our litmus test is, “Would the kids steal it from the larder when no one is looking?” (Spoiler alert: They would!)

Customizable

If you show us three people, we’ll show you three different smoothie styles they prefer. Why are our Smoothix shakes separated into warm milk and cold milk factions in our office? Water is preferred by some renegades. Some people use coconut water! Some people prefer a thicker shake, while others prefer the fluidity of a looser shake. Similarly, some people like sweeter fruit juices, while others prefer the citrus deliciousness of oranges. Healthy drinks are democratic in that they may be customized to your preferences. You have the ability to (heh) shake things up.

Nutritional Powerhouse

Okay, we cheated on this one a little. A soft drink or a sugar-laden float are unlikely to provide much nutrition. However, the appropriate components can make your liquid snack not only tasty (see #2!) but also healthy! Tea is high in antioxidants. Electrolytes abound in coconut water. Millet Smoothix combines the benefits of twelve grains with a healthy amount of protein and fibre, antioxidants from natural preservatives, and sweetness from good ol’ natural jaggery to create an immediate energy drink that will please both your taste buds and your doctor. Not to add that they are high in water, which prevents dehydration.

Aids Digestion

Many aspects of healthy drinks promote digestion, in addition to having a lot of minerals and vitamins. Smoothie, for example, contains 7 grams of fiber, which is nearly equivalent to two apples. Other nutrients in healthy drinks also aid in keeping your system sparkling clean. So, if you want to keep your digestive system in good shape… Follow your instincts!

Final Words

Health and vigour have never been more popular—or sought after/desired—than they are now. (After all, even a major burger business is frantically attempting to gain ‘nutritional’ certification for its products.)
