Launching a line of plant-based drinking yogurt products.

DNVN - Long Hung Investment, Trading and Service Co., Ltd. has just launched Wakai, a line of all-natural plant-based drinking yogurts fermented from Japanese purple sweet potatoes.

Wakai drinking yogurt contains a high amount of soluble fiber, anti-aging Vitamin E, and especially the antioxidant anthocyanin.

Wakai plant-based yogurt drink, fermented from purple sweet potatoes, was developed from a state-level scientific project on "researching the processing technology of some products from Japanese purple sweet potato varieties" by the Central Institute of Horticulture. This is the result of a team of scientists at the Central Institute of Horticulture who wanted to develop a highly applicable product that benefits consumers, as they recognize the amazing benefits of purple sweet potatoes.

Wakai plant-based drinking yogurt – New energy for your whole family.

This product's main ingredient is purple sweet potato, naturally fermented by lactic acid bacteria. It contains no preservatives or artificial colors. In addition to the usual benefits of other yogurt drinks, purple sweet potato yogurt also contains superior components such as high fiber content, resistant starch (considered soluble fiber), and the bioactive compound anthocyanin. Therefore, purple sweet potato yogurt is considered suitable for all ages and has many health benefits.

Wakai drinking yogurt contains a large amount of natural fiber, which absorbs water and stimulates bowel movements, helping to reduce constipation. It's especially beneficial for the elderly and children whose diets often lack fiber. Furthermore, it regulates the gut microbiome, enhancing digestion and absorption. Fiber also helps lower harmful cholesterol (LDL) and increase beneficial cholesterol (HDL). Therefore, a diet high in fiber helps reduce blood cholesterol levels.

In addition, fiber helps starch remain in the stomach longer, creating a feeling of fullness and slowing down the breakdown and absorption of glucose. This causes blood sugar levels to rise gradually, not suddenly, thus regulating blood sugar and reducing the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

In addition to the benefits mentioned above, purple sweet potato yogurt contains anthocyanin, which not only creates the natural pinkish-purple color of the product but is also a bioactive compound capable of preventing aging, fighting free radicals, benefiting the cardiovascular system, reducing the risk of stroke, boosting immunity, and preventing cancer.

3 products in the Wakai drinking yogurt product line.

According to nutrition experts, this is a perfect alternative to cow's milk and goat's milk on the market. Because it contains no cholesterol, no lactose, and very little saturated fat, organic plant-based milk products are quite suitable for people following a green lifestyle, those allergic to lactose in milk, those concerned about weight gain, and those with cardiovascular disease or diabetes. The product can be used by everyone, from children to the elderly.

Ms. Tran Thi Ngoc Bich, General Director of Long Hung Company, said: "With the desire to bring consumers a high-quality, safe, and healthy product, we have collaborated with the Institute of Horticultural Research since 2015 to research and develop the best and highest quality product line. This is the first plant-based yogurt drink product in the Vietnamese market, and I hope the product will receive the support of domestic and international consumers."

On this occasion, Long Hung Company is introducing three products from its Wakai drinking yogurt line to consumers, including: Wakai Gold drinking yogurt with added almonds; Wakai Active drinking yogurt; and Wakai Kids strawberry-flavored drinking yogurt. The products are distributed nationwide through supermarket chains, traditional retail outlets, and e-commerce platforms.
