Launch of Yakult Danone’s New Version of Signature Probiotic Drink to Augment Growth

Yakult Danone India, a joint venture between Yakult Honsha and Danone, announced its latest variant for its signature probiotic drink, called Yakult Light. The new formulation contains vitamins D and E and Yakult's trademark Lactobacillus casei ​strain Shirota ​(LcS), but with low sugar. Moreover, Yakult Light uses a natural sweetener, steviol glycoside, which does not produce a glycaemic response as the human body cannot metabolize it. The surging health-related disorders leading to poor intestinal conditions have created a massive market for India's probiotic drinks industry. Hence, consumers' increasing efforts to improve intestinal function and reduce significant health risks associated with digestive health can have an excellent impact on the digestive health market growth in the forthcoming years. Besides, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases will subsequently spur demand for functional food and probiotics, in turn boosting the market. According to a research article published by the National Center of Biotechnology Information (NCBI), it is estimated that in the U.S., 11% of the population suffers from a chronic digestive disease, with a prevalence rate as high as 35% for those 65 years or over.
