Kurma, considered to be a superfood, has become increasingly popular in Malaysia over the past few years due to it known nutritional benefits. It is also one of the Sunnah foods for Muslims, typically consumed during the month of Ramadhan and a recommended daily snack for the health conscious who need to keep up their energy levels.
Rich in nutrients, fibre and essential minerals such as potassium and magnesium, kurma is also known to have anti-inflammatory properties and acts as an anti-oxidant[1].Daily consumption of kurma can help to promote eye health, muscle development, memory improvement and keep the waistline in check by curbing hunger pangs.
Along with its many health benefits, kurma is also an excellent source of natural sugars like glucose and fructose which enables them to act as energy boosters and restore blood sugar levels, which is especially needed during the fasting month. This comes with the added benefit of ease in digestion which allows for faster assimilation of nutrients.

Among the nutrients are protein, calcium, vitamin D, B2 and B6, which are crucial for growth and development. Fans will also be pleased to know that with the Goodday Pasteurised Kurma Milk, the calcium content is higher for better bone health, making this delicious milk even more delectable among consumers.
“The introduction of Goodday Pasteurised Kurma milk comes at the back of the success of the Goodday UHT Kurma Milk which was launched mid last year. The positive response from our consumers has inspired us to extend this variant into Goodday Milk’s pasteurised milk range, giving us an opportunity to address the demands of different consumers in the market,” said Santharuban T. Sundaram, Vice President of Marketing at Etika Sdn Bhd.
“Goodday Milk has been a part of Malaysians’ lives for the past 50 years. Therefore, we are absolutely honoured to share the newly launched Goodday Pasteurised Kurma Milk with our fellow Malaysians.
