Lifeway Foods, Inc. 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.
