What we say
While it's OK for salt, NESTLÉ Milo cereal is 30% sugar and has more kilojoules and fat per serve than most other cereals. It's also low in fibre - only 4.2%.
The packaging boasts about “slow burning energy” and claims it “can help you feel fuller for longer and perform at your best”. This is essentially a low-GI claim, and NESTLÉ told us that, eaten with reduced-fat milk, NESTLÉ Milo cereal does have a low GI. But this just seems to be an attempt to take the curse off an otherwise unhealthy product.
Just like other chocolatey cereals, NESTLÉ Milo cereal is best left as an occasional breakfast treat.
Additives listed: Mineral salts (341, 504, 500), Soy lecithin (322), Antioxidant (304), Calcium carbonate (170, Iron oxide (172), Sodium ascorbate (301).
