WE8THISᵀᴹ is not specifically formulated as a weight loss product, but it can be effectively incorporated into a weight management plan to help you maintain a sustained calorie deficit over a period of time. WE8THISᵀᴹ can support your weight management goals by simplifying calorie tracking while offering a source of essential carbohydrates and fats, and providing a substantial dose of fiber and protein to help curb hunger between meals. And remember, you’re getting your essential micronutrients too.

Food can and is defined in many ways. For example, according to the Encyclopedia Britannica, food is defined as a substance consisting essentially of protein, carbohydrate, fat, and other nutrients used in the body of an organism to sustain growth and vital processes and to furnish energy. That is exactly what WE8THISᵀᴹ is.

WE8THISᵀᴹ is consumed in liquid format and some people may struggle with this “non-traditional format”, as they are used to meals that need to be chewed. It may feel strange at first, but keep in mind that soup is also food in liquid format!

Weight gain can occur when you consume excessive amounts of any food or substance. It's essential to maintain a balance between your calorie intake and your body's energy requirements, regardless of whether you're aiming to gain, maintain, or lose weight. Calculating your daily calorie needs is a crucial step in managing your weight effectively. Read about weight management here.

Absolutely! WE8THISᵀᴹ is vegan-friendly, free from dairy ingredients, lactose-free, and devoid of any animal-based products or by-products in its formulation.

There are no preservatives used or added in our product. Once a pack is opened, please consume within 3 weeks.

WE8THISᵀᴹ has a shelf life of 18 months unopened. Once opened, please consume within 3 weeks. It is essential to keep in mind that this is food and there are no preservatives. We want you to savour the very best of what WE8THISᵀᴹ can offer.

There are no added sugars. 0%. Zilch. Nada. Instead, we use two sugar alternatives that have distinct advantages:

Stevia: This natural sweetener comes with no calories or carbs, making it an excellent choice for those on low-calorie or low-carb diets. It is a fantastic sugar substitute.

Sucralose: We also use sucralose, a no-calorie sweetener that doesn't promote dental cavities. It's completely safe for consumption by both diabetics and non-diabetics alike, and it doesn't affect insulin levels.

Both of these sweeteners are about 300-600 times sweeter than sugar. As a result, only a minuscule amount is required to achieve the desired level of sweetness. Neither of these sweeteners is metabolized by our bodies; they are excreted through urine, allowing you to enjoy the sweetness without worrying about any sugar-related concerns.

Allulose has not been approved and is not allowed to be sold as a sugar substitute due to some concerns by these statutory bodies: Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ), European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), UK Food Safety Authority.

The texture of WE8THISᵀᴹ can feel different from person to person. It's important to note that WE8THISᵀᴹ includes oats and multigrains, which contribute to this texture. We prioritise using minimally processed ingredients to maintain this natural texture to emphasise the authenticity and wholesomeness of the ingredients we use.

When we say "no fillers used" in WE8THISᵀᴹ, it means that we have deliberately excluded maltodextrin and erythritol from our product. These two components are often incorporated into products primarily as fillers or additives to increase bulk. Products with fillers like maltodextrin and erythritol may appear larger or bulkier than they actually are. This can lead to misconceptions about portion sizes and the overall value of the product. Consumers may think they are getting more product but are, in fact, getting less.

Products containing fillers may seem more affordable at first glance, but when you consider the reduced nutritional value, they do not provide the same value for your money in terms of nutrition and overall satisfaction.

Yes, you can. Since IF focuses on when to eat rather than what to eat, it's relatively easy to fit WE8THISᵀᴹ into an IF eating pattern.

No. This question probably comes from skepticism due to the lack of the need to chew on liquid-based food. Chewing, where food is mixed with saliva, begins the mechanical process of digestion.

WE8THISᵀᴹ has done the chewing part for you by using finely milled ingredients. They’re easier to breakdown and process by your stomach and intestines. This makes moving food from the esophagus to your stomach (peristalsis: a series of wave like movement) throughout the alimentary canal easier, as we’ve addressed this with good levels of fiber.

Yes, you can. However, please limit to one serving per day as nutritional requirements during these periods are different. The ingredients in WE8THISᵀᴹ are generally suitable unless you have allergies to some of the ingredients. We would advise pregnant or lactating moms to discuss this with your doctor or obstetrician to find out if there are clinical reasons they are not suitable.

WE8THISᵀᴹ is designed and formulated to be a vegan product that is free from dairy ingredients, lactose-free, and devoid of any animal-based products or by-products in its formulation. We’re currently undergoing the Halal approval process.

Yes, you can. However, it is important to note that the nutritional profile per serving will be different from the product label if other liquids are used Instead of water.

You can definitely blend WE8THISᵀᴹ. Blending will give you an even smoother texture. You can also add fruits, e.g. bananas, if you’d like too.

Yes. WE8THISᵀᴹ does not contain any dairy ingredients and is lactose-free.

Yes. WE8THISᵀᴹ is safe for kids above 10 years of age to include in moderation as part of a balanced, varied diet. WE8THISᵀᴹ is not suitable for babies or infants below or during weaning age as there are different nutritional requirements for this age group.

Children’s energy requirements vary widely, from fewer than 1,500 calories per day in young kids, to over 2,800kcal per day in older teenagers. Energy requirements in older adolescents are often higher than those of an average adult.

If a child is very active, then these requirements may be greater. Some kids are simply not big eaters, so you need to look at nutritionally-sound ways of obtaining sustenance without encouraging too much junk for the sake of calories.

Using 1-2 scoop of WE8THISᵀᴹ as an in-between main meal ‘snack’ is a great way of doing this.

Yes, WE8THIS can be suitable for those managing high blood sugar levels. However, if you're on medication or following specific dietary guidelines to help control blood sugar, it’s essential to plan your intake of WE8THIS accordingly.

Made from oats and rich in fiber, WE8THIS may aid in blood sugar control, as oats and fiber are known to support stable blood glucose levels. It contains no added sugar, and the carbohydrate content is precisely measured, allowing for accurate tracking in each meal—this can be beneficial depending on your medication or insulin routine.

The total carbohydrate content is relatively low, ranging from 11% to 11.3%, depending on the flavor. For those monitoring their carb intake, a 2-scoop serving of WE8THIS provides 31g of carbohydrates in the Chocolate flavor and 36.3g in the Vanilla flavor, making it a practical option for managing blood glucose levels effectively.
