  • Abbott’s first plant-based nutrition supplement in the Philippines is scientifically formulated with HMB, a triple plant protein blend, and 28 essential vitamins and minerals
  • Ensure® Gold Plant-Based, a dairy protein alternative, provides an option for Filipinos with plant-based dietary needs and preferences to support their muscle strength, immune system function and heart health
  • Recent survey shows more Filipinos are choosing plant-based foods.

Abbott announced today that Filipinos who consume a plant-based diet now have another option to help them become stronger and healthier with Ensure Gold Plant-Based, Abbott’s first plant-based nutrition solution available in the Philippines. The science-based formula offers a dairy alternative suitable for older adults including those who have non-dairy dietary preference or lactose intolerance.

The oral nutrition supplement contains Ensure’s same scientifically driven formulation with HMB, and now includes a plant-based, high-quality triple protein blend made of soy, rice and quinoa for muscle health; 28 vitamins and minerals for immunity; and omega-3 and omega-6 for heart health.

More Filipinos are choosing plant-based diets. According to a recent survey, nearly 40% of Filipino respondents consume plant-based food weekly, and more than 50% consider plant-based food as healthier options. These numbers are expected to grow even further as more Filipinos look for alternatives to help them become stronger and healthier.

“Older adults need good nutrition to help maintain their strength, support their immune health, prevent disease and facilitate recovery from illness,” said Dr. Dimaano. “That is why Abbott develops science-based nutrition solutions – like Ensure® Gold Plant-Based – to help meet a variety of dietary preferences and help more Filipino older adults improve their quality of life through everyday strength.”

Ensure Gold® Plant-Based, which comes in an almond flavor, can be found nationwide at most major retailers and online. To learn more, visit the official Abbott e-stores on Lazada and Shopee.
