New Healthy Fruit Enzyme Dessert and Beverages at Gu Ma Jia
Monday, June 09, 2014
I first got to know about the benefits of fruit enzymes from my Mom. I remember her telling me how it helps with weight loss. Thereafter, I read about using fruit enzymes to clean dishes and floor on a health blog and I also came across a beauty salon chain in KSL Shopping Mall, Johor Bahru that sells fruit enzymes drinks.
Although I have long heard about the goodness of fruit enzymes, it wasn't until recently that I got to try it out for myself, thanks to Gu Ma Jia for making these fruit enzyme dessert and beverages readily available!
Consisting of phyto-nutrient compounds which is highly-antioxidant, fruit enzymes has vast nutritional and health benefits which helps to:
- Improve immune system and digestive system
- Relieves constipation and cleanses digestive tract
- Suppress free radical
- Detoxify and revitalize body cells
- Maintain a high alkaline blood pH
- Relieves constipation
- Lower cholesterol level
- Reduce weight

| Fruity Enzyme Juice with rock melon, strawberries, kiwi and basil seeds, SGD$3.80 |
Fruity Enzyme Juice contains basil seeds which helps in weight reduction, improves complexion, relieves constipation and lower blood sugar content.
My food-tasting partner, Si Ling and I agree that Fruity Enzyme Juice reminds us a lot of vinegar drinks. It is quite refreshing to gulp one of these especially after a heavy meal to aid in digestion. I think you will like this if you are a fan of vinegar drinks or if you are someone whom love sour stuffs.

| Fruity Jelly Enzyme with longans and wolfberries, SGD$5.80 |
Next up is Fruity Jelly Enyzme which contains longans and wolfberries. Rich in antioxidants and nutrients, wolfberries promotes mental well-being and calmness. It also helps to reduce insomnia and improve vision.
While the fruit enzyme taste in Fruity Jelly Enyzme ain't as strong as Fruity Enzyme Juice, I like how Fruity Jelly Enyzme isn't too sweet and how I am able to taste the natural sweet flavour of wolfberries. If you haven't already know, I'm a big fan of wolfberries. I add them practically to everything - from yoghurt to oats, porridge and even when I stir-fry veggies!
If you are looking for something light and refreshing after a heavy or spicy meal, Fruity Jelly Enyzme is the one.
While we were at Gu Ma Jia to check out the new fruit enzyme dessert and beverage, we got to sample some of their signature dishes.
 |
| Prawn Roll |
My food-tasting partner, Si Ling describes Gu Ma Jia's prawn roll as dense and flavourful. She likes how it doesn't split even after you bite into half of it.
 |
| Kyoto Pork Ribs Yam Ring |
I like how the yam ring has got small bits of yam instead of having all finely mashed up which creates an interesting texture.
 |
| Shrimp Paste Chicken |
 |
| White Pepper Crab, seasonal price |
 |
| Claypot Wine Chicken |
Gu Ma Jia's Claypot Wine Chicken is cooked with basil. Basically, I love everything basil. From Taiwan's Basil Chicken or Basil Century Egg to Thailand's Basil Chicken or Basil Pork. You get the idea.
I like how the gravy is done just right, not too salty to be consumed with rice.
 |
| Cereal Sotong with Curry Leaves |
Being cereal prawns lovers, this easily won our stomachs over with an interesting twist of subsituting the local favourite dish with sotong (squid), enhanced with the aroma enhanced with the aroma exuded from curry leaves.
 |
| Auntie's Signature Bean Curd |
 |
| Assam Fish Head, SGD$28 |
When it comes to Curry Fish Head, the most important of all has got to be - freshness.
Gu Ma Jia Assam Fish Head is fresh, not spicy but the after-taste is a tad numbing on the mouth area.
 |
| 8 Treasures Vegetables, SGD$12/18/24 |
Spotted these cute illustrations of Gu Ma while tucking in happily into the feast whipped up for us.
