An enriching diet
Today, Flora foods still keep up to date with the latest research on diet and heart health. Flora spreads contain a good balance of fats that can help keep your heart healthy, including omega-3 and omega-6 oils, as well as vitamins B6, B12 and folic acid.
The Flora pro·activ range consists of low fat spreads, a semi-skimmed milk drink, a one-a-day yogurt drink and low fat yogurts enriched with substances called plant sterols that occur naturally at low concentrations in vegetable oils and have been clinically proven to dramatically lower cholesterol, when you move to a healthy diet.
How it all started
Flora was one of the first soft margarines to be launched in the UK in 1964. In 1996, Flora sponsored the London Marathon for the first time. Flora pro.activ was launched in 2000.
Flora was voted the most trusted margarine/butter in the UK in the Reader’s Digest Trusted Brands survey in 2003. In the same year Team Flora, including 40 doctors and celebs like Lucy Benjamin, took part in the London Marathon to raise awareness of Britain’s Hearts in Training campaign.
In 2004, Flora launched the Flora ‘Fit Street’ campaign which is helping the Clapham Park community towards improved heart health.
