Innovative technologies in LG’s refrigerators and ovens offer GCC residents convenient, time-saving solutions to healthier, more productive homes
Dubai, UAE – April 23rd 2018: In the UAE, at least 70 per cent of men and 67 per cent of women aged 15 years and older are considered overweight. In fact, a global study titled Global Burden of Disease Study 2013, by the University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation found that the UAE’s obesity rate is nearly double that of the world average. As the effects on health and productivity from the growing incidences of diabetes and obesity become more manifest, consumers are realising the benefits of switching to healthier lifestyles, aiming to incorporate more exercise and home-cooked meals into their daily routines. Helping families achieve their health goals is LG’s focus, offering a range of smart kitchen appliances that help people eat healthy, stay fit and be more productive.
LG’s range of smart kitchen solutions are ideal for families looking to cook more at home and avoid indulging in unhealthy junk food. These appliances are not just green and efficient, but are also time-saving and user-friendly, with intuitive interfaces that simplify cooking even the most complex dishes. LG’s range of smart ovens go beyond simple microwave ovens, cooking food more naturally and efficiently, locking healthy nutrients in, and keeping harmful fats and sodium out. LG’s innovative Lightwave Oven technology offers the flexibility to heat foods in multiple ways to cook healthier, tastier, gourmet-standard food with minimal effort.
With cooking at home comes the issue of storing leftovers and fresh ingredients. Food wastage is not an unfamiliar issue in the GCC. Of the 34 countries in the 2017 Food Sustainability Index (FSI), the UAE ranks last in terms of how much food is wasted. Other Arab nations did not fare well either and it is an issue of growing concern. But thanks to LG’s forward-thinking advanced technologies, families can now confidently buy fresh ingredients for healthy, tasty meals, without having to worry about spoilage and wastage, leading a more sustainable lifestyle.
LG innovations like the Instaview Door-in-Door™ design featured in LG’s Instaview Refrigerators featuring, help families reduce their grocery bills, store fresh ingredients for longer and reduce food wastage. The LG Instaview Door-in-Door™ design incorporates a sleek mirrored glass panel that illuminates with two quick knocks, allowing you to see inside the easy access compartment without ever opening the door. This minimises the need to open the fridge doors for frequently used ingredients like milk and juice, translating to minimal loss of cold air, prolonging the life of fresh fruit and vegetables stored inside. Consumer-centric solutions like FRESHBalancer™ and Moist Balance Crisper™ keep your fruits and vegetables at their optimum temperature and moisture levels, ensuring they last longer and do not contribute to food waste. HygieneFRESH+™ makes use of a 5-step air filter that not only removes bad odours, but also rids the fridge of bacteria up to 99.999 percent, keeping families safe from foodborne illnesses and ensuring they are healthy, fit and productive.
