Amahhotela nezindawo zokungcebeleka zaseCentara, umqhubi wamahhotela ohamba phambili e-Thailand, umemezele ukuthi useyekile ukusetshenziswa kwamafutha e-trans ekudleni nasekuphuzeni, okuzuzisa impilo yabavakashi bakhe nokusebenzisana nemihlahlandlela emisha yoMnyango Wezempilo Yomphakathi (MOPH). Le nkampani isekele inqubomgomo entsha ye-MOPH eyamenyezelwa ngonyaka odlule, futhi isanda kuphothula ucwaningo lwendawo yayo yokubhaka, indawo yokudlela neyokudla ukuze iqinisekise ukuqedwa kohlobo lwamafutha oluyingozi obeluvamile embonini yokudla emhlabeni wonke iminyaka eminingi.
Impilo nempilo yamakhasimende bekulokhu kuyinto ehamba phambili ekusebenzeni kwe-Centara. Kusukela kwasetshenziswa uhlelo lwamahhala lwe-trans-fat ezinyangeni ezintathu ezedlule, i-Centara inikeze cishe izidlo eziyizigidi ezi-3-4 zokudla okunamafutha ezivakashi ezingaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-1.5.
“Siyajabula ukuqinisekisa izivakashi zethu ukuthi amakhekhe emabhikawozi ethu e-Zing, i-pizza kanye namafrimu ebhistroni yethu yase-COAST, nakho konke okunye ukudla abakudlayo e-Centara, akunawo amafutha,” kusho. Winfried Hancke, Umqondisi Wenkampani Yezokusebenza Ukudla & Isiphuzo, Centara Hotels & Resorts. “Abapheki bethu nabaphathi be-F&B bebekhuthele futhi besebenzisa ikhono ukuze bafinyelele le njongo ngempilo nempilo yezivakashi nabasebenzi bethu.”
I-Trans-fat, evela emafutheni emifino enziwe ngokwengxenye-hydrogenated, yethulwa imboni yokudla maphakathi nekhulu lama-20. Kwasiza ukwandisa isikhathi seshelufu nokunciphisa izindleko zokudla okugayiwe. Amafutha e-Trans ngokuvamile ayesetshenziswa ekudleni okuthosiwe, imajarini nemifino efinyezwayo, izambatho zesaladi, ukudla okulula okugayiwe kanye nesikhilimu esingesona esobisi.
Ucwaningo lwakamuva lubonise ukuthi amafutha e-trans-fat anyusa ingozi yesifo senhliziyo nesifo sohlangothi ngokwehlisa i-cholesterol enhle (HDL) futhi akhuphule i-cholesterol embi (LDL). Ukusetshenziswa kwayo okukhulayo kuhambisane nokwanda kwezifo zenhliziyo nemithambo yegazi. Abameli bezempilo kanye nokudla okunomsoco bancome i-MOPH ngesinyathelo sayo sokumisa ukukhiqizwa, ukungenisa nokusatshalaliswa kwamafutha akhiqizwa embonini kanye nemikhiqizo yokudla equkethe wona. UMnyango umemezele le nqubomgomo entsha ngoNtulikazi wonyaka odlule kanye nemihlahlandlela yokuthi ilandelwe zingakapheli izinyanga eziyisithupha.
