How ActivDay is Natural?

Ans: ActivDay is Natural, Native Milk Protein as its made by Mechanical process

The Milk is Processed through the Mechanical Cold Filtration process. This process makes sure that the Proteins are in their Natural Form as in the fresh Skimmed Milk. this cold Mechanical Filtration Process is Designed to separate the Milk proteins from its carbohydrates namely the Lactose, without disturbing the Miscelle structure of the casein and whey protein. ActivDay Contains Milk proteins concentrates, which contains the caseins and whey proteins in their natural ratio and in native state.

Milk is the oldest and one of the most widely consumed nutritious foods worldwide. It is highlighted as a source of high-quality proteins and one of the most important sources of bioactive peptides.

Milk proteins have high nutritive value and remarkable medicinal properties. They are known as potential ingredients of health-promoting functional foods, and the dairy industry has already commercialized many milk proteins and peptide-based products which can be consumed as part of a regular daily diet. They are consumed by infants, the elderly, and immune-compromised people.

They are also consumed to maintain good health status and prevent diet-related chronic diseases such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Milk-derived peptides are commonly ingested both in functional foods and drugs. They exhibit various well-defined pharmacological effects, for example, in the treatment of diarrhea (casomorphins), hypertension (casokinins), thrombosis (casoplatelins), dental diseases, mineral malabsorption (CPPs), and immunodeficiency (immunopeptides).

These findings introduce new perspectives in the nutritional and technological evaluation of milk.

Can ActivDay be used by diabetic patients?

Milk Proteins are less in Carbo Hydrates (Lactose of Milk).  As ActivDay has very less lactose in it, It Has very Low Glycaemic index. Any protein Which Digests faster will have High Glycaemic Index, as the faster digestion means that the proteins are quickly converted to Blood glucose for absorption. 

Activday has the best combination of slow Release proteins at 80% (Miscellar Casein) and Fast release proteins 20% (whey protein).  this ratio is the magic to keep the blood glucose levels at non spiking ranges. this is vital for the diabetic consumers. 

Hence, Clearly, ActivDay can be used for Diabetic Care.

What is the Glycaemic Index & Glycaemic Load of ActivDay?

  • The glycaemic index (GI) rates carbohydrates according to how quickly they raise the glucose level of the blood.
  • The glycaemic load (GL) rates carbohydrates according to the glycaemic index and the amount of carbohydrate in the food.
  • A low GI rating of a food does not mean you can eat a larger serve of that food – the total amount of carbohydrate and kilojoules consumed is still important.
  • Choose a diet containing plenty of fruits, vegetables and legumes, but with smaller helpings of potatoes, and less highly refined grain products and concentrated sugar.
As ActivDay has Very Low Carbohydrates, it is rated as Very Low GI Food.
The GI concept should be applied only to foods providing at least 15 g and preferably 20 g of available carbohydrates per normal serving, and comparisons should be kept within the same food group. As ActivDay has only 8 gram of carbohydrates, The GI Is Extremly Low and hence the GL.

Activday is a Low Glycaemic Index Food. ActivDay is a Low Glycaemic Load Food.

Due to Low GI and GL, ActivDay can be Used by Diabetics for better Blood Glucose Control.

ActivDay Prime Has the Glycaemic Index (GI): 8  (Below 50) and Glycaemic Load (GL): 3 (Below 10)

Hence, ActivDay is a Low Glycaemic Index and Low Glycaemic Load Protein Source.

How ActivDay helps in Weight Management?

ActivDay for Weight Reduction & Weight Gain

Activday can be used in both ways either to Gain Weight or Loose Weight. In a Typical Diet, lets consider your average calories that is consumed and used by your body is 2000 Calories. If the 2000 Calorie diet is divided as below, the respective results are assured.

How Diet with High Protein from ActivDay Works?

High carbohydrate and High Protein diets were tested in between 200+ Individuals and when proper control of the Total calories Intake is controlled as per above, it results in proper Weight Management, with Blood Glucose Level Control and Satiety to control more carbohydrate intake.

Is ActivDay rich in Folate & Vitamin B 12?

ActivDay has 2.3 times more Folate & Vitamin B12, than normal Skimmed Milk Powder. “From only one glass of milk 40% of the recommended daily intake of vitamin B12 is provided” – Page 13: Vitamin B12, Folate and Folate Binding Proteins in Dairy Products by Karin Arkbåge Department of Food Science Uppsala. Doctoral thesis Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences Uppsala 2003. Hence, ActivDay PRIME has 90% of the Dairy Recommended Daily Intake.

ActivDay is a great sources of protein and several vitamins and minerals, including vitamin B12. One cup (240 ml) of whole milk supplies 18% of the RDI for vitamin B12 (2). *** Source : https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/vitamin-b12-foods#section12

Among all kinds of cheeses, Swiss cheese has been shown to have the highest vitamin B12 content. One ounce (30 grams) of Swiss cheese can contain about 16% of the RDI (3). Interestingly, studies have shown that the body absorbs the vitamin B12 in milk and dairy products better than the vitamin B12 in beef, fish or eggs (456). For example, a study in over 5,000 people showed that dairy was more effective than fish at increasing vitamin B12 levels (7). *** Source : https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/vitamin-b12-foods#section12

As ActivDay PRIME & CHOCO contains all the Casein and Whey proteins of milk in the intact state, the vitamins in milk are present at 2.3 time of that of Milk.

1.  Why is ActivDay more expensive than some other protein products?

ActivDay is made with high-protein milk protein concentrate rather than being primarily a carbohydrate-based or low-protein powder. ActivDay Prime and Choco contain approximately 80% protein.

The price reflects the concentration and quality of the milk protein used, along with the processing required to produce it. EnNutrica’s milk protein concentrate is made from skimmed milk using a cold-filtration process designed to retain native milk proteins.

When comparing protein products, don’t compare only the price of the packet. Compare the protein percentage, serving size, ingredients and actual protein delivered per serving.


2.  Isn’t ActivDay just another protein powder?

No. ActivDay is based on Milk Protein Concentrate (MPC).

Unlike a product based only on whey, milk protein concentrate naturally contains both casein and whey proteins. EnNutrica’s MPC has these proteins in approximately an 80:20 casein-to-whey ratio, reflecting their natural ratio in milk.

This gives ActivDay a different protein profile from a conventional whey-only product.


3.  Why should I choose ActivDay instead of a regular whey protein?

Whey and milk protein concentrate are not the same thing.

Whey protein is predominantly whey and is generally considered a faster-digesting protein. ActivDay’s milk protein concentrate contains both casein and whey.

If you are looking for a milk-based protein source for everyday nutrition rather than specifically a whey-focused sports supplement, ActivDay offers a different nutritional profile.


4.  What does “80% protein” actually mean?

It means approximately 80 g of protein per 100 g of powder.

For example, the listed 15 g serving of ActivDay provides approximately 12 g of protein.

This is why it is important to look at the serving size as well as the percentage printed on the pack.


5.  Why does the packet look small if it contains so much protein?

Because ActivDay is a concentrated protein product.

You don’t need to consume a large quantity of powder to obtain protein. ActivDay Prime and Choco have a recommended serving size of 15 g.


6.  Does ActivDay contain added sugar?

ActivDay is designed as a protein-rich product. However, the exact ingredient and nutrition information can vary by variant.

Always check the ingredient list and nutrition panel printed on the pack for the specific ActivDay product you are purchasing.

For ActivDay Prime and Choco, the preparation instructions state that additional sugar can be added separately for taste if desired.


7.  Does ActivDay contain fillers?

ActivDay is designed around milk protein concentrate as its primary protein source.

However, “filler” is not a precise nutritional category. Different protein products use different combinations of protein ingredients, carbohydrates, flavouring ingredients, sweeteners, vitamins, minerals and other components.

The best way to compare products is to check the protein percentage, ingredients and nutrition panel, rather than assuming that every competing product contains fillers.


8.  Is ActivDay vegetarian?

Yes.

EnNutrica states that its products are 100% vegetarian and made from cow’s milk.


9.  Is ActivDay made from real milk?

Yes.

EnNutrica’s milk protein concentrate is produced from skimmed milk using a cold-filtration process. The company describes the resulting protein as native milk protein containing both casein and whey.


10.  What is special about EnNutrica’s cold-filtration process?

The milk is processed through a mechanical cold-filtration process designed to separate lactose and concentrate the proteins while retaining the native structure of the milk proteins.

EnNutrica states that no chemical or biological process is used for producing its milk protein concentrate.


11.  What is the difference between casein and whey?

Both are naturally occurring milk proteins, but they behave differently during digestion.

Whey is generally considered a faster-digesting milk protein.

Casein is generally considered a slower-digesting milk protein.

ActivDay’s milk protein concentrate contains both, in approximately an 80:20 casein-to-whey ratio.


12.  How much protein do I get from one serving?

The recommended serving size for ActivDay Prime and Choco is 15 g.

At approximately 80% protein, that corresponds to around 12 g of protein per 15 g serving.

Your total daily protein requirement depends on your body weight, age, activity level and overall diet. ActivDay should complement your diet rather than replace a balanced diet.


13.  How do I use ActivDay?

For ActivDay Prime and Choco, the listed preparation method is:

  1. Take 2 heaped scoops (15 g) of
  2. Add approximately 50 ml of water and
  3. Add another 150 ml of water, milk or other
  4. Stir thoroughly and consume

You can also incorporate ActivDay into suitable foods and beverages according to your preferred preparation.


14.  Can I mix ActivDay with milk?

Yes.

The product instructions allow ActivDay to be prepared with water or milk.


15.  Can I add ActivDay to my normal food?

Yes.

Milk protein concentrate is commonly used for protein fortification in beverages, nutrition products, bars, breakfast cereals and other food products.

This is also the idea behind Protify Any Food You Eat — adding protein to everyday foods rather than limiting protein consumption to a traditional shake.


16.  Who can use ActivDay?

ActivDay is intended as a source of protein and nutrition for people who want to increase their dietary protein intake.

Your appropriate protein intake depends on factors such as age, body weight, activity level and overall diet.

If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have a medical condition, have a diagnosed milk allergy or are following a medically prescribed diet, consult your doctor or qualified dietitian before using a nutritional supplement.


17.  Can children use ActivDay?

Different ActivDay products are intended for different consumer groups.

Do not assume that an adult product is automatically appropriate for children. Parents should select the appropriate ActivDay variant and follow the product’s age guidance and serving instructions.

For children with specific nutritional requirements, consult a pediatrician or qualified dietitian.


18.  Can I take ActivDay every day?

ActivDay can be used as part of a regular diet when used according to the recommended serving instructions.

However, it should supplement your diet, not replace a balanced diet.

Your overall daily protein requirement should come from your complete diet.


19.  Will ActivDay help me build muscle?

Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass.

However, simply consuming more protein does not automatically build muscle. Muscle development also depends on adequate training, total calorie intake, recovery and overall nutrition.

ActivDay can help you add high-quality milk protein to your diet.


20.  Will ActivDay help me lose weight?

ActivDay is a protein-rich food product and can be incorporated into a calorie-controlled diet. However, ActivDay itself does not cause weight loss.

Weight management depends primarily on total calorie intake, food choices, physical activity and overall lifestyle.


21.  Can I use ActivDay if I am trying to gain weight?

It can be incorporated into a weight-gain diet because it provides protein, but weight gain depends on consuming enough total calories over time.

For healthy weight gain, ActivDay should be combined with an appropriate overall diet rather than used as the sole strategy.


22.  Is ActivDay a meal replacement?

No.

ActivDay is a protein-rich nutritional product. It should not automatically be considered a complete replacement for a balanced meal.

You can use it alongside your normal meals or incorporate it into suitable foods and beverages.


23.  Does ActivDay contain whey protein?

Yes, but ActivDay’s key distinction is that it is based on milk protein concentrate, which contains both casein and whey.

EnNutrica describes the natural casein-to-whey ratio in its MPC as approximately 80:20.


24.  Why shouldn’t I simply drink more milk instead?

Milk is an excellent food, but regular milk contains significant amounts of water, lactose, fat and other components.

Milk protein concentrate is produced specifically to concentrate milk proteins.

ActivDay therefore provides a convenient way to add a higher concentration of milk protein without having to consume a large volume of milk.


25.  Why does EnNutrica cost more than some low-priced protein products?

Because not all protein powders are nutritionally equivalent.

A cheaper product may have a different protein concentration, different protein source, different serving size or a different formulation.

Instead of comparing only:

₹ per packet

 

compare:

₹ per gram of actual protein

 

and also look at:

  • Protein percentage
  • Protein source
  • Serving size
  • Ingredients
  • Carbohydrate content
  • Fat content
  • Added ingredients
  • Manufacturing quality

ActivDay’s value comes from its high concentration of milk protein and its underlying milk-protein manufacturing process.


26.  Is ActivDay the cheapest protein available?

No — and it is not designed to be.

ActivDay is positioned around high-quality milk protein and protein concentration, not simply the lowest price.

If your only criterion is the cheapest protein per serving, there will always be cheaper alternatives.

If you are comparing protein quality, source, concentration and nutritional profile, you should compare the labels carefully before making a decision.


27.  How do I know that EnNutrica is a genuine manufacturer?

EnNutrica is not simply a consumer-facing protein label.

The company manufactures dairy ingredients including milk protein concentrates, whey products, casein and milk powders. It states that its protein ingredients are supplied to businesses and that ActivDay is its retail range.

EnNutrica also states that its milk is procured through village-level collection centres and that its products undergo quality-control processes.


28.  Where is EnNutrica manufactured?

EnNutrica’s protein manufacturing operations are based in Dindigul, Tamil Nadu, India.

The company states that it began production of milk protein concentrates and other dairy ingredients in 2015 and became Dindigul Farm Product Limited in 2024.


29.  Does ActivDay contain artificial ingredients?

This depends on the specific ActivDay variant.

Do not assume that every ActivDay product has exactly the same formulation. Customers should refer to the ingredient list printed on the particular product pack before purchase.


30.  What if I am lactose intolerant or allergic to milk?

ActivDay is a milk-derived product and therefore is not appropriate for someone with a milk-protein allergy.

People with lactose intolerance may have different levels of tolerance depending on the amount consumed and individual sensitivity.

If you have a diagnosed milk allergy, lactose intolerance or another dietary restriction, consult your doctor or dietitian before using ActivDay.


31.  Can I take ActivDay before or after exercise?

Yes, ActivDay can be incorporated into your daily protein intake around your exercise routine.

There is no requirement that it must be consumed at one specific time. Your total daily protein intake and overall nutrition are more important than a particular minute-by-minute timing strategy.


32.  Why choose ActivDay over a normal health drink?

The key difference is the protein concentration and protein source.

ActivDay Prime and Choco provide approximately 80 g protein per 100 g of powder, whereas many traditional health drinks are formulated around a broader nutritional profile rather than being highly concentrated protein products.

Always compare the nutrition labels rather than comparing brand names alone.


33.  Can I use ActivDay with coffee, smoothies or other foods?

Yes.

ActivDay can be incorporated into suitable beverages and foods. This makes it possible to add protein to your existing eating routine rather than creating a completely separate meal.

Protify Any Food You Eat.

 

 

34.  How should I compare ActivDay with another protein product?

Don’t compare products based only on the packet price. Compare these five things:

1.  Protein source

Milk protein? Whey? Plant protein? Combination?

2.  Protein concentration

How many grams of protein are present per 100 g?

3.  Protein per serving

How much actual protein do you receive in one serving?

4.  Ingredients

What else is included in the formulation?

5.  Cost per gram of protein

This gives you a much more meaningful price comparison.


35.  Why is ActivDay different?

Because the focus is not simply on putting “protein” on the label.

ActivDay is built around native milk protein, combining casein and whey, with approximately 80% protein in Prime and Choco.

It is designed to make high-quality milk protein convenient for everyday nutrition.
