Available in Three Fruit Flavors at H-E-B Stores, this Certified Organic, Low Fat, Rich and Creamy Beverage Makes For a Fulfilling Snack or Meal Replacement. Consumer Health to Greatly Benefit from Soy Milk with Probiotics.
FULLERTON, Calif., July 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Wildwood Organics, a division
of Pulmuone Wildwood, a pioneering U.S. provider of innovative soy food
products, today debuted its new Probiotic Soymilk(TM) at H-E-B Stores in San
Antonio, Houston and Austin. This rich and creamy beverage is certified
organic, heart healthy, low fat, kosher and contains eight (8) grams of soy
protein per serving. Probiotic Soymilk(TM) has zero saturated fat and no dairy
or cholesterol.
With seven live and active cultures, Probiotic Soymilk(TM) is available in
10 ounce vanilla, blueberry and pomegranate flavors. The MSRP is $1.69.
"Studies have shown the benefits of drinking soymilk with probiotics and
our new Probiotic Soymilk(TM) is better for you than soymilk or cultured
dairy," says John Breen, chief operating officer of Pulmuone Wildwood. "It is
delicious and great as a snack or meal replacement for people on the go and a
good way to maintain a healthy weight. Plus, this product is made with 100% US
grown soybeans, most of which are grown less than 100 miles from our cultured
soy plant. We are receiving terrific feedback on introducing this beneficial
product to the marketplace."
Probiotics are a hot trend in the food industry and are turning up in a
myriad of foods such as fruit drinks, energy bars and popsicles. In fact
according to Datamonitor's Productscan Online, in 2007 more than 158 new
probiotic food products hit the grocery shelves, compared with just four
products in 2002.
Wildwood's Probiotic Soymilk(TM) is packed full of live beneficial
cultures to strengthen the body's immune system and promote digestive health.
It's a good source of protein, iron, and vitamin A and an excellent source of
calcium and vitamins B2, B12 and D. The product contains L. Casei, L, Lactis,
B. Bifidum, L. Bulgaricus, L. Rhamnosus, L. Acidophilus and S. Thermophilus.
According to the Journal of Food Science, researchers from Victoria
University in Australia report that adding probiotic bacteria to soymilk may
enhance the solubility of calcium up to 90 percent. The research also reports
that adding probiotics to soymilk enhances the absorption and metabolism of
beneficial soy nutrients and isoflavones.
Soy isoflavones are well known phytoestrogens that have been studied for
their role in cancer prevention and slowing down the aging process in
peri-menopausal women. Soy isoflavones have proved to be a popular alternative
to hormone replacement therapy for those wishing to control menopause symptoms
without resorting to drugs.
Experts suggest that daily consumption of probiotics can provide consumers
with benefits such as a boost to the immune system and relief from intestinal
distress.
