Typical Specifications of PowerFlour
DESCRIPTION:
A white to creamy, NATURAL MALTED BARLEY FLOUR with a pleasant
accented malt aroma and flavour.
ADVANTAGES:
- Diet enhancer to help infants, usually between 6 and 9 months,
better digest the complex starch diet used as a staple in most
developing countries.
- PowerFlour, even used in small quantities, is capable of breaking
down large quantities of starchy staples.
- Simplicity and convenience. PowerFlour is easily added to any
heated starchy porridge and mixed. No special preparations are
needed.
- Because very little PowerFlour is needed to be effective, it
is very cost effective to ship it where it is needed the most
(famine-stricken areas).
