horlicks vs bournvita comparison nutritional values

I usually don't use one health drink i use Horlicks, Ovaltine, bournvita and complan alternatively though sounds crazy thats the way it is i always rotate my health drink because i always believe drinking one product consistently numb our taste buds :P and every product has different combination's of nutrition ingredients.

This time i went to buy a ovaltine but it was out of stock so i was confused which to buy horlicks or bournvita i took both the packs in hand and compared the nutritional label and decided to go for bournvita this time.

After buying bournvita one thing came to my mind why should i not compare both of them and prepare a char because when i google i did not find the comparison of these products any where on the web below is the chart of ingredients found per 100gm in both product chocolate flavor.

Does any one of these promotes hair growth?

Manjunath said...

Try ovaltine :D its good compared to latter products but i doubt it promotes harigrowth :D

Renu said...

so which is better?

Manjunath said...

If you ask my personal opinion ovaltine is better even though its price tag is almost double...

but personally i dont recommend sticking to one drink because each drink offers something which others dont offer so its better idea to rotate your health drink every month so that you get unique benefits of every products and also a feast for your taste buds....

Its just my opinion though if you think i am wrong do correct me :)
