Ovaltine is a powdered drink mix. The figures here describe the powder rather than a prepared drink. It mainly provides carbohydrate, with 83g per 100g, including 48g of sugars. It also contains a range of vitamins and minerals, including 800mg of calcium per 100g. Its energy content is 1524 kJ per 100g.
Calcium helps maintain bones and teeth and supports normal muscle function. The sugar and energy content are worth noting for people monitoring their intake. The nutritional content of a prepared drink depends on how much powder is used and whether it is mixed with water or milk. Full nutritional figures for the powder are in the tables below.
