The big challenge - Going beyond “sugar free”
Lifestyle diseases can only be solved by changes to culture and personal attitude. But, lack of integration between industries such as health, food and fashion leads to four major hinders for sustainable lifestyle change:
-
Cultural movements are seen as costs rather than as profitable businesses, everyone works individually
-
Research on wellbeing has been based on public funding, rather than commercially driven
-
The competitive nature of the industry hinders new alliances and innovation
-
Lack of integration between industries, such as health, food, sport, and culture, leads to little or no sharing of information
This is why going “sugar-free” is not a longterm solution. We can add or retract sugar in our food, but for sustainable effect we need to change of lifestyle. And lifestyle change is not only a personal commitment but a cultural undertaking shared between producers and consumers with a taste for life.
Sureka’s Mission
We are facilitating a better taste of life for people and the planet:
-
For the ingredient producer: closer to market, more control over ingredient benefits
-
For the artisan: create more, sell more, earn more
-
For the consumer: more premium, more fun, more taste
