GoodBelly Probiotic Strawberry Banana Juice Drink (32 oz)

NextFoods, Inc. (the parent company of GoodBelly Probiotics) was founded by two Natural Foods industry veterans, Steve Demos, a natural foods trailblazer and the founder and former president of WhiteWave, Inc., makers of Silk Soymilk, and Todd Beckman, former Vice President of Business Development and Operations at WhiteWave. Steve and Todd are joined by a small, but mighty team of movers and shakers, many of whom worked at WhiteWave and helped launch Silk Soymilk into the stratosphere.

The idea for the company came to Steve initially as he thought of his fellow Baby Boomers and how they could use some help having long, happy, healthy and active lives. He wanted to create products that helped support the health of his generation and the generations to come. In late 2006, Steve and Todd zeroed in on the sweet spot for the company’s products — ingredients with scientifically substantiated health benefits combined with the goodness and responsibility of healthy, natural foods. NextFoods, Inc. was born. The vision was simple: Natural Foods + Science = Next Generation (“I Feel the Effect”) Products (that would be delicious, of course)! Based in Boulder, Colorado, NextFoods adheres to a mission that fosters the continuous improvement of human nutrition. The NextFoods team is committed to developing a series of world-class, highly nutritious, functional, “next generation” foods — while using sustainable, socially responsible practices whenever possible.

Initially, the team’s research into next-generation foods led them to a probiotic strain called Lactobacillus plantarum 299v (LP299V®), a probiotic that has over two decades of demonstrated safe & effective use and has been subject to over 60 human clinical trials. GoodBelly, containing LP299V®, became the first probiotic juice drink to hit the U.S. market. GoodBelly chose this scientifically-backed strain from the very start because it has been shown to be one of the most effective probiotics on the market at supporting digestive health, which is where overall health begins.
