General Mills is adding Omega-3 DHA to its Yoplait Kids yoghurt brand. The new formula for Yoplait Kids will provide 16mg of naturally sourced Omega-3 DHA per serving.
“Yoplait Kids with Omega-3 DHA is ideal for those consumers who are looking for easy ways to integrate this important nutrient into their children’s diets,” said Phillip Zinda of the Yoplait marketing team. “By adding Omega-3 DHA, Yoplait Kids offers even broader dietary benefits. Plus, Yoplait Kids has 25% less sugar than comparable brands of children’s yoghurt.”
Omega-3 DHA, a fatty acid which is thought to support brain growth during early childhood, is only available naturally in a limited number of foods, such as eggs and human breast milk.
