CoolBrands introduces Breyers Light! Probiotics Plus Yogurt
The new recipe for the brand's popular light yogurt features enhanced probiotics that gives consumers complete nutrition in a cup.
30/01/06 CoolBrands International Inc. is helping to make healthy eating healthier, and tastier, than ever before with the introduction of its new Breyers Light! Probiotics Plus Yogurt. The new recipe for the brand's popular light yogurt features enhanced probiotics that gives consumers complete nutrition in a cup.
Probiotics refers to beneficial bacteria normally found in certain parts of the body. These microorganisms may assist with digestion or help protect against harmful bacteria. The new Breyers Light! Probiotics Plus Yogurt provides an added dose of the live, active yogurt cultures that have been shown to promote overall good health of the digestive tract. Research suggests that friendly probiotic bacteria, such as those found in Breyers Light! Probiotics Plus Yogurt, may aid digestion and boost immunity. Breyers Light! Probiotics Plus Yogurt contains Bifidobacterium cultures, which help to maintain the balance of bacteria in the intestine.
Breyers has also boosted the health benefits of its Light! Probiotics Plus Yogurt with the addition of Vitamins A & D and calcium. It is offered in flavors inspired by indulgent desserts such Strawberry Cheesecake, Key Lime Pie, Black Cherry Jubilee and Lemon Chiffon, yet contains 70% less sugar than the leading low-fat sweetened yogurt and has only 110 calories or less per serving.
A perfect breakfast, snack, or dessert, an 8-oz. cup of Breyers yogurt has 33% more yogurt per serving than other leading brands, making it a better value for consumers.
