The products have been designed with consumers in mind. We have ensured that when you use our products you can maintain a healthy lifestyle,” she said. She said with Philip products consumers can be free from the hazard of colostrum, cancer and other food relation health hazards.
She however added that staying healthy starts with the lifestyle choices that we make, that is why we ensure that our products makes like healthier and easier. “Fake products are dangerous, they can cause harm to people that use them. For example fake bulbs can explode and cause fire,” Nweke said.
She particularly stressed that all the bottles used in Philips for its products are BPA-free and BPA have been discovered by researchers to cause cancer. That is why BPA bottles have been banned in Europe and America.

She challenged Nigerians to take responsibility for their health by insisting on buying Philip products. “The only way we could guarantee our health is to buy Philip products. We need to be aware of what it means to live healthy. This is where our Philips kitchen appliances become relevant,” Nweke said.

It can also be used to fry potatoes, plantain and do all kinds of frying without the hassles of excess oil.
