Nature's Garden Probiotic Yoggies are a Healthy Snack for Kids!
Do you remember Yogos? If you were a fan and were bummed that theyโve been discontinued, rest assured! Iโve got something youโll love even more. I recently discovered Yoggies!
On a work trip to Chicago, I found myself super hungry without any food on hand. A friend of mine pulled a bag of Yoggies from her purse and said โTry these fruit yogurt bites! Theyโre amazing and will hold you over!โ Boy, was she right! They were delicious and hit the spot!
Probiotic Yoggies gave me the immediate fun memory of Yogos candy, but with a bonus of healthy nutrition benefits. Theyโre a yogurt covered fruit snack with the perfect amount of sweetness! They pack a powerful punch of probiotics and fiber, are gluten-free, non-GMO, and contain no artificial flavors or ingredients. Bonus, they're conveniently portioned in small packs for an easy grab-and-go option.
You might ask, โwhat are probiotics and why are they important?โ Probiotics are live bacteria that are essential in maintaining a healthy gut biome, working to improve digestion and maintain your immune system. Through a patented system, these fiber snacks contain billions of probiotics from natural resources that microencapsulate Yoggies, ensuring the power of each probiotic is maintained as is passes through the digestive system.
While the answer to โCan I get Yogos?โ is a no, probiotic Yoggies will instantly turn that frown upside down! Theyโre a healthy snack for kids and adults made with real ingredients and a billion benefits! They're an indulgent treat you can feel good about! Be sure to toss a pack in your lunch box, purse, or backpack!
