Renowned actress and film producer, Rita Dominic, welcomes the new year with an ambassadorial partnership with Miyen Foods, the creators of Nuden Poundo. The unveiling ceremony, held in Lagos, marked Dominic as the ambassador for this organic swallow, aligning with the shared goal of promoting healthier nutrition choices for Nigerians.
Introduced to the market a year ago, Nuden Poundo addresses rising health concerns such as high blood pressure and diabetes. In response, it offers a nutritional alternative without compromising the enjoyment of our favourite meals. Certified as a superior option to traditional swallows, it boasts organically sourced ingredients, including whole grains, seeds, root vegetables, and psyllium husk, providing essential vitamins and minerals for the body’s well-being.
“Nuden Poundo is produced in Montana, U.S. where we have a certified FDA organic factory,” said Olanrewaju Adebowale, a representative of Miyen Foods. “There are no genetically modified ingredients. From production to distribution, the process is very organic. We have received positive feedback from people who have tried it and the demand for it has increased significantly.”
Speaking on the choice of Dominic as the brand ambassador, Adebowale emphasized that she perfectly embodies the kind of personality fitting for representing the brand.
The stylish actress known for her timeless elegance also shared her perspective on Nuden Poundo, highlighting its health benefits.
“I love my Nigerian food. I love my swallows. In fact, Swallows are actually my best. However, I don’t get to eat them all the time because I have to stay fit as a filmmaker and actress,” she said.
“But I felt really nice after trying it,” she noted. “I didn’t have to worry about working out or burning calories like I would with other swallows. It felt light. I like the taste and it is easy to make. This influenced my decision to work with the brand.”
As a champion of healthy living, Dominic expressed her joy in associating with a brand committed to promoting wellness and making nutritious choices accessible to a broader audience.
