ROOMFIELD, Colo. — Horizon Organic®, a leading national organic dairy brand, today announced the launch of Horizon Organic Milk with 32 mg DHA Omega-3 Single Serve Milk Boxes. These new milk boxes provide consumers with all of the same nutritious benefits of organic DHA omega-3 milk, but in a single serving milk box that is shelf-stable, meaning it doesn’t require refrigeration. They are the first on-the-go milk product enhanced with 32 mg DHA omega-3 to come to market.
DHA omega-3 is a long-chain omega-3 fatty acid that has been studied for its role in supporting healthy brain development. Each serving of Horizon Organic Milk with DHA omega-3 provides 32 mg of DHA. Most children currently don’t get the suggested intake of DHA omega-3, making these new milk boxes from Horizon Organic a great choice for parents looking to incorporate more DHA omega-3 into their families’ diets.
“Horizon Organic Milk with 32 mg DHA Omega-3 Single Serve Milk Boxes are a great option for families who want all of the nutritious benefits of milk, including 8g of protein, Vitamins A and D, and calcium, with the added benefit of DHA omega-3 to support healthy brain development,” said Mike Ferry, Horizon Organic president. “As the first shelf-stable milk box with 32 mg DHA omega-3, these new milk boxes are perfect for packed school lunches and busy families.”
Horizon Organic Milk with 32 mg DHA Omega-3 Single Serve Milk Boxes are available in six varieties, including chocolate 1% in 6-count, 12-count and 18-count packages and vanilla 1% in 6-count,12-count and 18-count packages.
Like all Horizon Organic Milk with 32 mg DHA Omega-3 products, these new convenient, shelf-stable single serve milk boxes are made with a sustainable, plant-based and vegetarian source of DHA omega-3. Plant-based DHA omega-3 is free from ocean-borne contaminants, does not contribute to overfishing and is a better option for those following a vegetarian diet. Additionally, the DHA omega-3 in Horizon Organic products neither contains nor is made with GMOs or with hexane. Horizon Organic sources it’s DHA, called life’sDHA®, from DSM Nutritional Products.
Horizon Organic Milk with 32 mg DHA Omega-3 Single Serve Milk Boxes are now available in supermarkets and natural food stores nationwide at a suggested retail price of $7.99 for a 6-pack, $14.99 for a 12-pack and $15.99 for a club store 18-pack.
