How to earn Vitality points


All HealthyFood products are identified as VIT on your till slip. You will earn up to 15 Vitality points for each HealthyFood item to a maximum of 750 points a month. Your points are awarded according to the ratio of HealthyFood items compared to less desirable food items in your trolley.

The less desirable food product range is made up of the following food and drink types: Sweets, chocolates and ice-cream Sugary foods Biscuits Crisps Sugary drinks High fat baked and fried items

What are less desirable foods (and drinks)


A less desirable food is a food (or drink) that is high in saturated fats, trans fatty acids, added sugar, salt or refined starch. These foods are characteristically not good sources of vitamins, minerals or fibre and usually have a high calorie-density.

What are other foods


Other foods include all food which doesnt fall into the HealthyFood or the less desirable food categories. This simply means that these foods will not affect how we calculate your points when evaluating your basket and makes no reference to the nutritional value of these food items.

Example of how to earn points


Kate has just bought 50 HealthyFood items at Pick n Pay, 20 less desirable items and 20 other items. She will earn 750 Vitality points (50 x 15) for this Pick n Pay visit, as she has purchased more than two HealthyFood items for every one less desirable item.
Having more than two HealthyFood items for every less desirable food item = 15 points per HealthyFood item = HealthyFoodTM items Having one or two HealthyFood items for every less desirable item = 10 points per HealthyFood item = Other items = Less desirable items

Having less than one HealthyFood item for every less desirable item = 5 points per HealthyFood item

55

Dairy and dairy alternatives

Delicious and wholesome


56

Dairy products are major sources of calcium and protein and have an important part to play in maintaining a balanced diet. Local and international dietary guidelines and research show that diets high in saturated fat are associated with higher blood cholesterol levels and an increased risk of developing heart disease. For this reason, all unflavoured fat-free or skim milk (including fresh, long-life, UHT and powdered fat-free milk), fat-free yoghurt (plain and flavoured) and plain, unflavoured fat-free cottage cheese are included on the HealthyFood benefit.

Dairy and dairy alternatives

Creamy tuna spread


100 g/1 tin tuna, canned, drained 83 ml/ /3 cup cottage cheese, fat-free, smooth 1 g/1 tbs parsley, fresh, chopped 2 baby/60 g onion, chopped 2 tsp/10 ml lemon juice, fresh 1 tsp/5 ml tabasco sauce To taste black pepper, ground Method
2

Place all the ingredients into a blender, and blend until smooth and thick. Pack firmly into a mould. Chill for about 2 - 3 hours.
Tips to reduce preparation time

Soya milk and soya yoghurt


Soya milk and soya yoghurt are a good source of protein and are a useful substitute for people who do not include dairy in their diet. All plain unflavoured, unsweetened soya milk (including fresh, long-life and powdered soya milk) as well as both plain and flavoured soya yoghurt are included on the HealthyFood benefit.

Turn the tuna spread out of its mould and serve sliced with rye toast. Use already chopped, frozen onion. Serve in an attractive bowl garnished with a sprig of a fresh herb instead of chilling it in a mould to decrease preparation time.
Preparation time: 5 10 minutes (Excluding chilling time)

57

Lentils and legumes

Rich in fibre and protein


Legumes are a good source of protein and fibre and contain a variety of vitamins and minerals. The South African Food-Based Dietary Guidelines recommend that you eat dry beans, peas, lentils and soy regularly. Therefore, all dried legumes, including sugar beans, butter beans, kidney beans, haricot beans, red speckled beans, chickpeas, lentils, split peas, lupins, black eyed beans and soya beans are included on the HealthyFood benefit. All texturised or processed soya products, such as burgers and sausages, are excluded from the HealthyFood benefit. As these products have other ingredients, such as salt / or fat added to them and high intakes of salt are associated with an increased risk of chronic diseases.

58

Lentils and legumes

Roasted rosemary and chickpea snack


2 tins/480 g chickpeas, canned, rinsed and drained 2 tbs/30 ml olive oil 1 tbs/15 ml rosemary, fresh, chopped 2 tsp/10 ml Italian mixed herbs, dried Black pepper, ground to taste Cooking temperature: 200 Celsius / 400 Fahrenheit / Gas Mark 6 Method

Preheat the oven. Mix all the ingredients together and place onto a baking tray and into the oven. Stir the chickpeas every 15 20 minutes and continue cooking until the chickpeas are dried and crunchy. Enjoy as a snack or even as a topping for salads.
Tips to reduce preparation and cooking time

Use dried rosemary instead of fresh rosemary. The chickpeas are also delicious partly dried out, so cook for a shorter amount of time if rushed. These may be stored in an airtight container, so make extra and store for a snack option when needed.
Preparation time: 3 5 minutes depending on the amount Cooking time: 60 70 minutes depending on the amount

Oils
Local and international dietary guidelines advise that monounsaturated fats are the preferred choice of fats, especially for those who may be at risk of coronary heart disease. Certain oils that are rich in monounsaturated fats, such as olive oil, are also a good source of phytonutrients and anti-oxidants.

For these reasons, oils that are significant sources of monounsaturated fatty acids, namely plain olive oil, canola oil and avocado oil, are included on the HealthyFood benefit.

Nuts that are salted or seasoned or roasted in oil are not included on the HealthyFood benefit.
