Himalaya Salt Sports Candy Ideal For Active Lifestyle Goers!



A sweet that combination with Himalaya Salt! The creator of the Big Foot Candy, Nicko Jeep Manufacture Sdn Bhd has officially launched its Himalaya Salt Sports Candy, targeting at the sporty and outdoorsy.


Made with the natural Himalayan Salt, this new sports candy comes in really handy should your body need some extra sodium after an intense workout. 

It’s refreshing minty flavour is also ideal for anyone who needs a minty fresh breath after lunch or before a meeting or something refreshing on hot day. The extra cool sensation of the hard candy also soothes the throat at the same time.


Mouse mommy has tasted the Himalaya Salt Sports Candy, it is a combination taste of sweet, mint and slight salty and sour. The main ingredients of the sweets is Himalaya Salt and lemon. Handy and convenient for us to bring along when we go for family walkathon, sport or activities.

Besides that, mouse mommy also found that this Himalaya Sports Candy is good for sore throat too as in I got some discomfort at my throat and feeling relieve after having it.


Kenny Low, the Founder and Managing Director of Nicko Jeep Manufacture Sdn Bhd said the inspiration behind this sports candy came about during a hiking trip with his friends when he suffered bad cramps due to excessive sweating which causes a decrease in the concentration of sodium in the blood stream. This was when Kenny wished he had that candy creation (with sodium content) handy.


The key ingredient of the sports candy which is the natural Himalayan Salt, is believed to possess many health benefits. It contains over 80 natural traces of minerals such as Potassium, Magnesium and Calcium which are all found naturally in the body. 

Besides promoting the absorption of mineral and nutrients into the bloodstream, the Himalayan Salt is known for helping maintain hydration in the body. Kenny believes that the health benefits of the Himalayan Salt when combined with pure Lemon juice which is rich in vitamin C as well as the soothing benefits of mint would result in a concoction that greatly benefits the body especially after a strenuous sporting activity.


“The Himalaya Salt Sports Candy comes in a convenient packaging on the go. It must be emphasised that the sports candy is not a health supplement but rather a handy ‘pick me up’ when you need some extra healthy natural salt and glucose after a good workout,” said Kenny.


Alongside the launch of the Himalaya Salt Sports Candy, was the unveiling of the sports candy’s ambassador. Goh Liu Ying, who is the 2016 Olympics Badminton Mixed Doubles Silver Medallist was appointed the ambassador for the sports candy as she is an ideal role model for aspiring young sportsmen and sportswomen. 

She is also a fan of the candy and takes it whenever she is out training and have it with her during tournaments.


Besides Himalaya Salt Sports Candy, also launched Himalaya Pastilles Peppermint. It is a delightfully chewy, bite-sized pastilles that come in a convenient resealable packet that soothe the throat and freshen your breath with its strong cool mint flavour. It is refreshing and can get rid of bad breath too!

Dettol Malaysia Personal Wash With 12hour Odour Protection



Hearing mums’ concerns, Dettol, the world’s No. 1 germ protection brand** has relaunched the whole personal wash range of products recently to protect all Malaysian families from 100 types of harmful germs.  

Dettol ‘ProFresh’ is formulated to provide ‘12 hours odour protection’ and to ensure all day freshness, even in Malaysia’s hot and humid weather.  Dettol ‘ProSkin’ provides ‘8 hours moisturising’ to keep the whole family’s skin protected, which is often compromised when exposed to harmful environment, such as strong sun rays or continuous air conditioning.


Launched over 80 years ago, Dettol has been the leader in germ protection and an active partner of all mothers who want to protect their families.  

Having committed to improve the health of families through better hygiene, the brand consistently innovates solutions to fight evolving germs in our environment, thus enhancing the quality and efficacy of its products to safeguard consumers’ wellbeing. 

No wonder it has earned the trust of mothers worldwide to help her family members maintain good hygiene, which is essential for good health.


Particularly in Malaysia, Dettol has been the No. 1 germ protection brand over the years. As the brand continues on its journey to find the right germ protection solution for Malaysian families, Dettol has identified different needs in personal wash, which largely narrows down to ‘odour protection’ and ‘skin protection’.

“We take shower to keep our body clean. But beyond this basic need, there are more advanced and versatile needs, which depends a lot on the family’s lifestyle.   Particularly for Malaysian families, their needs largely come down to 2 requirements: ‘odour protection’ that is mainly associated with odour causing germs in sweat, which prevails in hot tropical weather; and ‘skin protection’ that keeps skin healthy and well moisturised -- a constant challenge here due to higher exposure to sunlight and humidity, causing dust and germs to stick to the skin.   The new Dettol personal wash is designed to provide ‘protection from 100 harmful germs’ to address to both needs. ‘ProFresh’ is developed to control odour causing germs and provide 12 hours of odour protection, and ‘ProSkin’ focuses on healthy skin, giving 8 hours moisturisation. Both platforms are dermatologically tested and proven to be suitable for everyday use for families,” explained Kim Minyoung, Marketing Manager of Dettol Malaysia and Singapore.


Dr. Steven Chow, Senior Consultant Dermatologist explained that, mothers today are cautious about maintaining body hygiene and healthy skin of the family.

“Kids love playing outdoors, and while mothers are very happy to see them being active and having so much fun, they do worry at the invisible germs that may be clinging on to them. Not to mention the smell! There is nothing quite as overpowering as the odour when your sweaty children come home from physical activities at school. Effective germ protection body wash in the bathroom is the solution for the whole family! As kids’ skin is vulnerable, dermatologically tested solutions are important” said Dr. Steven.


He highlighted that many people have the misconception that sweating causes body odour, especially.

Sweat itself actually does not smell. Rather, it is the germs in the sweat that react chemically to produce odour by breaking down the sweat molecules into acids. Hence, it is important to remove the source of germs on the surface of the skin with specialised products, rather than simply clean with any regular product. This not only ensures that you and your family smell fresh all day, but also helps to improve your overall health,” he pointed out.


Keep the whole family hygienic and protected from germs, while they lead a healthy and active lifestyle! The Dettol personal wash range comes in five uplifting variants, namely Cool, Lasting Fresh, Re-energize, Fresh, and Skincare.


Mouse mommy likes the Dettol Cool Profresh antibacterial body wash with 12hour Odour Protection. Love the non-sticky residue feeling too, clean and fresh!

#DutchLadyBreakfastChallenge To Kickstart A Nutritious Morning!


A strong day needs a strong start. As milk is one of nature’s most nutritious beverages, Dutch Lady PureFarm milk is a delicious and nutritious choice for Malaysian families at breakfast to rev up their mornings and to take on the day.



Mouse mommy also take the 5 days #dutchladybreakfastchallenge to promote the emphasis the important of breakfast and healthy meal to kick start our day! 


Amid the morning rush of getting to work and getting children to school on time, breakfast is often neglected. But it is also the most important meal of the day. After a night of sleep, our bodies will need to replenish its nutrient reserves – as it would have been 8 to 12 hours since we last ate. This is why a nutritious breakfast is crucial to start the day. It helps kick start our bodies and boost our energy levels to help us perform our everyday tasks and activities.


But we don’t always need to have a full meal for breakfast to jumpstart our day. In fact, a simple glass of milk can quickly fill our bodies up with the nutrients we need, and it makes it so convenient for us in the mornings when we have so little time to prepare breakfast.


Getting all the required nutrients in one meal is difficult.  But by drinking milk, it helps to fulfill nutrients that our body needs. Most people are aware that milk is rich with calcium, but milk actually provides other essential nutrients that the body cannot generate on its own, such as protein. 

Moreover, a glass of milk at breakfast helps prepare our body to absorb more goodness from meals for the rest of the day.


“Since 1963, Dutch Lady Malaysia has continuously worked on fulfilling the mission of nourishing a nation and building strong families. For the last 55 years, we have been championing for Malaysian families to have breakfast that include milk. Nutrients from milk help build stronger and healthier families. And having  breakfast as a family builds strong family bonds – both are important to start our day strong,” said Ms. Ramjeet Kaur Virik, Marketing Director, Consumer Dairy, Dutch Lady Malaysia.


Dutch Lady Malaysia’s nutritionist, Tan Huey Ghee has the answer: “Protein in milk serves as the building blocks of our muscles, bones, hair and nails1, and it also plays a major role in various biological processes, including the formation, regulation, repair and protection of our body. You can say that protein is the maintenance expert that keeps our bodies running smoothly throughout the day”.


“Research show that protein in milk contains nine essential amino acids (EAA) and it is easier to digest compared to other sources of protein2. In other words, milk is a rich and convenient source of high quality protein,” she added.

Tan further explained: “Unlike fat, protein cannot be stored in our bodies for future use. This means we are very reliant on our three daily meals to meet our protein needs. In this sense, our breakfasts should contain at least 20% to 25% of our daily nutritional requirement3”.


“Hence, drinking Dutch Lady PureFarm milk in the morning will make a lot of difference to our protein intake -- just by having a glass of milk, it will help you meet more than 50% of your daily protein intake at breakfast4, in an easy and convenient way,” she concluded.


As Malaysia’s No.1 milk5, drinking a glass of Dutch Lady PureFarm milk will give our bodies the essential nutrients it needs, such as : Protein helps build and repair the tissues6 in our body so that it will be in good condition; Calcium is the key to the growth and development of strong bones and teeth for children6, and helps adults maintain healthy bone mass6 to ensure an active lifestyle; Vitamin A allows our eyes to function properly6 and help us stay focused and alert, both at school and at work; Vitamin B2 supports the release of energy from carbohydrates, fats and proteins6Vitamin D aids the absorption and utilisation of calcium and phosphorus6.
