5.1.5 Nutritional benefits<br />

• <strong>Milk</strong> is a good source of protein and a high intake of protein is becoming<br />

increasingly desirable for many consumers, especially amongst gym-goers<br />

& dieters. Therefore, product reformulations with added amino-acids are<br />

likely be successful on the market in the medium term.<br />

• Consumers have an increasingly hectic and on-the-go lifestyle. UK adults<br />

have acknowledged that they have little time to prepare a nutritious<br />

breakfast or snack. However, people recognise the importance of a wellbalanced<br />

breakfast to fuel their day and are open to more flavoured milk<br />

breakfast propositions.<br />

• Older consumer segments are relatively untapped in the flavoured milk<br />

market. Focusing on particular nutritional and lifestyle needs of this<br />

generation could unlock new market opportunities.<br />
