Lifeway Foods Announces New Lineup: Whole Milk Kefir with Real Fruit
January 24 2019 - 1:50PM
Lifeway Foods, Inc., (Nasdaq: LWAY), the leading U.S. supplier of
kefir cultured dairy and probiotic products announced the release
of a new product line, whole milk kefir with real fruit. Each 32-oz
bottle is blended with full-fat milk and real fruit purée. The real
fruit line is now available in three flavors: strawberry, raspberry
and blueberry.
Each 8 ounce serving of kefir provides 11 grams of protein, 30%
of your daily recommended intake of calcium, and 12 live and active
probiotic cultures. Research has suggested that regular intake of
probiotics is linked to several health benefits related to
digestion, immunity and mental stress. The growth of consumer
demand for probiotic-rich foods allows for Lifeway to continue to
provide a variety of whole food options for those who want to
incorporate healthy, microbiome-supporting nutrition into their
lifestyle. Additionally, recent data from SPINS shows that full fat
drinkable yogurt and kefir is up over 8% year-over-year from 2017
to 2018.
“On a personal level, I was inspired by summer trips to local
berry farms with my girls to gather a bounty for our yearly canning
ritual,” said Lifeway Foods CEO Julie Smolyansky. “Time is a luxury
that you can’t buy, but this premium product made with rich whole
milk and tart berries is a way to enjoy a wholesome, healthy kefir
smoothie with your family without spending half the weekend in the
kitchen. I didn’t personally pick the best berries, ferment the
kefir with fresh milk from my cow, blend to the perfect proportions
in my own kitchen and bottle it up for your enjoyment, but it’s a
pretty close match.”
Lifeway’s new whole milk kefir with real fruit is shipping now
and expected to be available throughout the United States by end of
the first quarter.
