HEARTY BREAD: Healthy lifestyle Made Affordable

HEARTY BREAD: Healthy Lifestyle At A Low Price

Anyone who had tried dieting before would agree with me that it is not as easy as it may sounds. Plus, a healthy diet requires not only a solid determination but a lot of moolah too! Why? Because it is very expensive! There are so many diet options in the market today but they come with a hefty price tag! You may classify me into someone who had been dieting all my life. Eversince I can remember I am constantly on a diet. Then, one day I give up and let my unhealthy lifestyle overcome my will to be healthy. 



I've tried so many diet options before , but I ended up as a total failure. I know, I am a ticking time bomb. I am aware that I should shape up sooner and not later or I'll end up six feet under the ground. Hard as it may seems, it is for my best interest.  

Come on, admit it. Following a strict diet are generally not effective. Plus it is unhealthy like Keto diet. Some healthy stuff doesn't taste good. Some do taste good but they're very unhealthy. And some diet stuff makes me crave for more food. Being deprived makes me want more. 

A healthy lifestyle will not only extend your life span, but also makes you feel and look good. Plus you don't have to buy plus sizes clothes anymore. Being healthy will also makes you more confident.  Obese individuals has greater chances of suffering from diabetes, cancer, renal failures and other diseases imaginable. 

Problem is, my main problem is not only psychological but also budget. Not to mention that going into a strict diet—Low Carbohydrate/Sugar-Free diet makes me crave for more rice. You see. I am a typical Filipino who loves rice. And rice is carbohydrates. No rice diet makes me weak. 

Diabetic Cases

The Philippines is considered one of the diabetes "hot spots" in the Western Pacific region. It is estimated that 1 out of 5 Filipinos are diabetic. This statistic is very alarming and calls for attention of the general public. Several cause-oriented group has already started campaigns to spread awareness in the hope to help hinder the growth

It was noted that unhealthy lifestyle habits of Filipinos is the main cause of diabetes. This was also tackled by World Health Organization and they also included sedentary lifestyles as major lifestyle risk factors, stating that 1 in 3 overweight and 1 in 10 is obese.

Obesity

Obesity cases is another red flag in the country. Those who consume excess sugar and carbohydrate lead to accumulating that excess weight overtime. Per record, Philippines has estimated a staggering 18 million citizens who are either Obese or Overweight.

Cancer Cells feed on Sugar

To clarify, consuming sugar does not cause cancer. Studies have been conducted which proves that sugar essentially feeds tumors and encourages cancer growth. Hence starving these cells from sugar may help cancer patients.

These health conditions would require a special diet, and we know how expensive it can be. Because it can be really costly, a group of young entrepreneurs, Evan Dykimching and Vicson Ngo, have decided to develop bread alternatives, Hearty Bread, Gluten-Free, Sugar-Free.


The company started out as suppliers for some of the major hospitals in the Metro. They cater to doctors and in-house patient with conditions mentioned above.

"When one of our family member got confined in the hospital, we were surprised that the price of our bread were quite high due to several administrative fees," Evan recounts.

With the company's desire to promote affordable and quality healthy, they created the brand "Hearty Bread" to make healthy breads readily available and affordable to the general public.

To give you an idea, if you are not familiar with the price of Gluten-Free/Sugar-Free in the market, other producers are selling these breads ranging from Php500 to Php600 per loaf. Expensive? You bet! 

Hearty Bread invested in research and development for two (2) years in order to come up with bread that are double in size and begun selling at half the price – all Gluten-Free/Sugar-Free.



A lot of other products are in the pipeline and are being developed which gives those who are into these type of diet something to look forward to.

Evan also shares the secret to making their bread available at a very low price – 

"We can really lower the cost of our products since we produce them commercially in volume quantities. We also own the lot where our facilities operate so we don't pay rent. We make our breads affordable not to kill the market price, but to make these healthy breads more affordable and help those who are burdened to begin with."


I received a basket of Hearty Bread the other week and O boy, they're all delicious. To think that all of these breads are gluten free!!! 



Our house boy asked me why am I eating steel wool. Lol. It is because he saw me eating Hearty Bread's Charcoal Almond Cheesy Loaf. He's so funny. l decided to let him taste it. Imagine my surprise when he wanted some more, lol! Nasarapan! Ha ha ha! It is totally behind me how on earth does a gluten-Free/Sugar-Free with no preservatives will taste this good!


I also love the fact that all of their breads are sliced to perfection. No more sweat in slicing. Hearty bread had thoroughly covered every rough edges! And that is so cool. 😎


My brother also love hearty breads saba 🍌 banana 🍞 loaf. He finished the banana loaf in one seating ha ha ha! 😅
