"LiveActive Cottage Cheese under the Breakstone’s and Knudsen brands supports the digestive system from a different angle: prebiotic fiber. The non-active, natural fiber aids digestive health and can relieve bloating, gas and irritability; at the same time, prebiotics act as a food source for probiotics.
The benefits of the prebiotic fiber inulin contained in LiveActive are promoted with an on-package tag with the claim, “Helps naturally regulate the digestive system with prebiotic fiber,” reports Jason Hecker, Kraft’s brand manager for cottage cheese. In addition to prebiotic fiber, the 2% LiveActive cottage cheese product delivers between 11 and 12 grams of protein per 4-ounce serving.
Often classified as dietary fiber, prebiotics including inulin are utilized in U.S. dairy applications, including some Stonyfield Farm yogurt products. More than three-quarters of Americans find it challenging to incorporate more fiber into their diets, according to Kraft’s consumer research. Since the average American’s fiber consumption is far short of the recommended 20 to 35 grams of fiber per day, according to Journal of the American Dietetic association research, prebiotics offer new health and wellness opportunities for dairy processors."
