More and more consumers today have a preference for foods that offer less sugar, and more ingredients like high-quality protein – plus the health benefits they have. At the same time, flavour, variety and convenience also rank high with them.

Valio’s expanding line of lactose free PROfeel® protein products are finding lots of new fans these days. Starting from a niche market of workout enthusiasts, Valio PROfeel® products are increasingly embraced by consumers who simply want the health benefits of high protein foods – without sacrificing on taste. In fact, 80% of these consumers think of protein as being an important part of their diet – and they also know that not all protein sources are created equal. Milk protein is widely seen the most well-known and attractive protein source. Because of its well-known high quality, over a third of this group is interested in enjoying milk protein as part of their normal diet, most often for breakfast and lunch.
