Gut health food brand, Bio&Me, has launched new single-serve prebiotic yogurts. The pots are filled with prebiotics and will roll out from 17 July to UK retailers, available in Original and creamy Vanilla flavours for an RSP of £1.20/150g pot. Asda will stock the Original flavour across 145 of its stores and both variants will be available via independent retailers nationwide. Each Bio&Me Gut-Loving Prebiotic Pot contains “billions” of live and active cultures, with the yogurt said to contain four times more than any other yogurt in the UK. They also contain 18 different culture strains, such as BB-12 and LGG.. The all-natural yogurts have no added sugar, artificial sweeteners, thickeners or emulsifiers, and are low in lactose, high in protein, as well as being a source of calcium, B12, B2 and phosphorus. Jon Walsh, Bio&Me co-founder and CEO, said: “We are thrilled to be launching our new single-serve pots into Asda. Our prebiotic live yogurts launched into the market in 2021 and are now listed in Asda, Co-op, Ocado, Sainsbury’s and Waitrose”. Megan Rossi, Bio&Me co-founder, said: “At Bio&Me, we’re on a mission to make looking after your gut health as easy and as accessible as possible. As a dietitian and a scientist, I’m interested in delivering great tasting food that also truly delivers on its health claims. This is what Bio&Me is all about. I’m excited to be launching these new convenient pots of gut-loving goodness to shoppers nationwide.”
