Danone said the shakes would help consumers who were on the go and who wanted to eat healthily.

“Light & Fit Protein Shakes not only offer key nutrients like protein and fibre but a delicious taste, helping you avoid some of those less healthy cravings,” Amanda Soled, associate health affairs manager at Dannon, Danone’s US arm, said.

Last week, Danone launched a yoghurt line, Oikos Triple Zero, in the US to target male consumers wanting protein-heavy snacks.
