I am a member of the Imperfectly Natural Woman forum and visit there often to pick up tips and get advice. A little while ago, on that forum, I was recommended a drink to help towards the IBS, it’s called TianTian and some people swear by it! I have yet to try it and am doing some research before taking that step. Here’s some info that I found…
Developed in the West, but inspired by the East, TianTian strikes the perfect balance for those who want to take more care about their own personal well being but also want to get on with their daily lives. Drawing on the nutritional benefits of soy, the traditional mainstay of the Asian diet, TianTian is a concentrate formula specially developed to provide the optimum balance of natural ingredients.
Rich in phytonutrients, isoflavones, anti-oxidants and lutein, TianTian (which means ‘daily’ in Mandarin Chinese), also tastes delicious.
TianTian is rich in Phytonutrients, which are naturally occurring plant compounds, structurally similar to human oestrogens. Oestrogens are hormones required for normal growth and development and to maintain good adult health in both men and women. Oestrogens are essential to the female reproductive system but are also important for the bones, heart and brain. Phytonutrients also act as anti-oxidants, which play an important role in promoting general health.
Soy protein contains all the essential amino acids in sufficient quantities to support human life. In countries where soy is a dietary staple the incidence of coronary heart disease is lower than in the West. Experiments have shown that soy proteins and its isoflavones are frequently linked to the reduction of cardiovascular disease and the risk factors associated with it, such as excess cholesterol. The British and American Heart Association encourages the consumption of soy as part of a healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol.
Lutein is found in many fruits and vegetables. Most people do not eat sufficient of either and, because of modern farming methods, many do not contain sufficient nutrients. One of Lutein’s functions is to provide protection against oxidative and free radical damage. The highest concentrations of Lutein are found in the eye, but it is also present in skin, breast and cervical tissue. Lutein levels are entirely controlled by dietary choice. Lutein protects against Free Radical damage to the retina which causes AGE RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION (AMD). AMD is the leading cause of blindness amongst adults. High intakes of Lutein have been linked to a 19% decrease in cataract risk for men and 22% for women.
TianTian is low in fat and carbohydrate whilst high in protein. A tall glass of 250ml (at recommended dilution of 4:1) has only 32.25 kcal. TianTian is an ideal complement to a calorie controlled diet.
Since TianTian was launched in October 2004 the producers have been delighted by the encouraging reports from customers.
A definite reduction in Night Sweats associated with the menopause.
A generally ‘brighter feeling’ particularly in the morning.
Great increase in energy levels for a customer suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
Great improvement in the condition of a girl suffering from Eczema.
Customers report they are sleeping much better.
Eye irritation and sensitivity problems have cleared up.
Sarcoidosis symptoms in a post-menopausal woman have cleared.
Regular use of TianTian helps irritable bowel syndrome.
TianTian is a unique drink inspired by the Chinese medicinal philosophy of inner harmony and balance.
With all the other info I found out, this drink sounds amazing! But I have to admit health drinks have never really been my thing, so I don’t know if I’ll try it or not. Have you tried it? If you have, I’d love to know what you thought, let me know.
