Smart Revolution

We want people to eat better - yfood is your smart solution when things have to go fast.

BALANCED NUTRITION - EASY, ISN'T IT?

Nutrition

Our diet is crucial to who we are. It gives us energy and a booster for our performance, health and quality of life. But often, a wholesome and balanced diet is tricky to maintain due to a lack of time or availability. That’s why many people turn to junk food, eat a one-sided diet or sometimes even skip meals altogether.

Smart Food – Smart You

We all face the challenge of eating a balanced diet from time-to-time. Nowadays, people want to eat simply but in a more balanced way. This is exactly the idea behind Smart Food - a new category of food with a full nutritional profile that can be consumed quickly and easily at any time. yfood is the market leader in the Smart Food category in Germany and is also growing fast in other countries.

Closing gaps smartly

Smart Food is not meant to replace the fresh and high-quality food you find in normal eating. On the contrary: a diverse and varied diet, as well as the social and cultural aspects of shared meals, remain essential.
yfood wants to fill gaps smartly. Particularly in those situations where you don't have time or access to fresh and healthy meals.
A modern, high-quality option to junk food that fits perfectly into our fast-paced times, yfood is ideal for those who crave simple yet balanced and delicious options.

What you can count on with yfood.

Why do we eat? Because it tastes good? Well, of course. That too. But, first and foremost, we eat to provide our body with the nutrients that are so important for it, so that it can get us through the day fit and healthy – and we feel good. In our fast-paced times, we have greater and lesser degrees of success with that. yfood offers a smart solution for those times when you're finding it harder: nutritional complete balanced products that satiate you. And they taste fantastic at the same time.

01

Complete nutrient profile

The proteins, fats, carbohydrates and dietary fibre contained in our ready-to-drink meals – whether Classic or Vegan – provide you with a balanced supply of important nutrients and and fill you up for several hours without feeling heavy in the stomach. What's more, all 26 essential vitamins and minerals can be found in our yfood drinks – all nutrients together provide you with more than 150 health benefits.

02

Nutri-Score A

Each of our products is awarded the Nutri-Score A. The highest possible rating which shows that, according to the Nutri-Score calculation system, our products have a favourable nutrient profile and therefore can contribute to a healthy diet.

03

Low metabolic load

yfood provides your body with energy without putting too much strain on your metabolism – which, for our ready-to-drink meals, has even been investigated in a scientific study. Based on the glycemic index, you can see how quickly a product causes your blood sugar level to rise, thereby putting a strain on your metabolism. With our yfood drinks, it only rises slightly and then sinks steadily again. This means a lower metabolic load and therefore enough energy for the important things in life!

04

Good Tolerance

In addition to our products tasting good, we also pay particular attention to them being well tolerated. That is why our milk-based Classic ready-to-drink meals are lactose-free (< 0.01 g/100 g) due to the addition of the lactase enzyme. Our Vegan eady-to-drink meals naturally contain no lactose.
In addition, all our products are gluten-free. That is, any traces of gluten are below the detectable level (< 20 mg/kg). We always use gluten-free oat fibres for our drinks, which are continuously analysed and controlled in the laboratory.

05

26 vitamins & minerals

Our ready-to-drink meals contain 26 vitamins and minerals that are essential for our bodies. yfood therefore provides your body with over 150 health benefits.
With a 500 ml yfood drink, you can cover at least 25% of the daily requirement of vitamins and minerals of an average adult (8,400 kJ/2,000 kcal).

06

High in protein

In our ready-to-drink meals, more than 20% of the energy content is provided by protein.
Our Classic ready-to-drink meals contain milk protein. We use soy protein in our Vegan ready-to-drink meals. Both protein sources have high bioavailability and supply your body with all essential amino acids.

07

Valuable dietary fibre

Dietary fibre refers to a group of complex carbohydrate compounds of plant origin. They have the unique ability to bind water and therefore swell, which can then lead to the effect of feeling satiated. Among other things, our drinks contain gluten-free oat fibres as a source of dietary fibre.

08

No added sugar

When we say that our products have "no added sugar", this means that we avoid using mono- and disaccharides, such as household sugar or the like. We sweeten our drinks with sucralose. This allows us to describe all drinks using the legally regulated claim "no added sugar".
Nevertheless, some ingredients that we use as flavouring ingredients or sources of carbohydrates naturally contain sugar. We always state exactly how much this is in the individual cases as sugar in the nutritional value table – and we label these products with the claim "contains naturally occuring sugars".

Over 150 health benefits

Our yfood products are packed with many important nutrients. Not only do these provide energy, they also perform important functions in our bodies and are involved in metabolic processes, for example. Certain nutrients cannot be produced by the body itself. Which is why it’s important that we take them in through our food. This way, our bodies can continue to function well and stay healthy.

Here you can find out which nutrients support which health functions in the body. At the same time, you can see which legal conditions we fulfil with our products so that we can advertise/label these nutrients and their health benefits.
