    High-protein flavored milk

    Nestle Nesquik launches high-protein flavored milks

    Nestle Nesquik, Glendale, Calif., introduced Protein Plus, a new product line targeting those who want flavored milks but also desire more protein in their diets.  

    The milk beverage comes in two flavors, chocolate and vanilla. A 14-ounce serving contains 23 grams of protein, 170 calories, 2.5 grams of fat and 22 grams of sugar.

    It is made with low-fat milk (from cows not treated with the added growth hormone rBST) and contains 28% less sugar than the leading protein-enhanced flavored milk, according to the company.

    Protein Plus is available at grocery stores nationwide and at local convenience stores in 14-ounce pre-mixed, ready-to-drink bottles. 

    To celebrate the new product, Nesquik introduced "Fueling the Everyday MVP"— a tongue-in-cheek campaign that puts a spin on the typically serious tone of sports advertising. The campaign kicks-off with a video entitled "Anthem" created by digital creative agency Deep Focus. Designed to carve out a completely new space for protein drinks, the video takes on dramatic sports commercials in a witty and relatable way.

    Protein Plus is for those who are not necessarily gym rats, but still want serious protein when enjoying some of their favorite games: Frisbee, Wiffle ball and kickball, according to the company.

      Optimize Whey Protein Isolate Production: Discover New Opportunities from Whey Protein Phospholipid Concentrate Research

      On Demand Production of Whey Protein Isolates (WPI) have always been hampered by the creation of pro-cream. This occurs as a byproduct during the microfiltration step to remove the remaining cream in Whey Protein Concentrate to achieve 90% WPI. However, new advancements in WPI processing equipment alongside research conducted at the Wisconsin Center for Dairy Research, has helped increase value, awareness and applications for the use of Whey Protein Phospholipid Concentrate (WPPC).
