Green Valley Creamery Adds Lactose-Free Cottage Cheese Green Valley Creamery (formerly Green Valley Organics) con- tinues to expand its award-winning line of lactose-free, real dairy products with the introduction of organic, lactose-free cottage cheese. Green Valley Creamery cottage cheese is now available nationwide at a suggested retail price of $5.29 per 12-ounce cup at New Seasons Market on the West Coast, Roundy's and Mariano's in the Midwest, MOM's Organic Markets in the Northeast, and other natural food stores and co-ops throughout the U.S. As the only certified organic, lactose-free and FODMAP-friendly cottage cheese in the U.S., Green Valley Creamery's cottage cheese has a rich, creamy taste and mild cultured flavor. It is made with simple, clean ingredients – organic milk and cream, Celtic sea salt, lactase enzyme, and live, active cultures. With 4 percent milk fat, it contains no additives and is made without any gums, stabilizers or preservatives. Each serving provides 12g of protein and only 3g of carbohydrates. Cottage cheese can be served simply with fruit, nuts or granola, or enjoyed with savory toppings like tomato, olive oil and black pepper. It also gives a hearty, high-protein boost to recipes like pancakes, muffins or quiches.

Wilde 720.328.0843 www.wildebrands.com Bonk Breaker's Bars Contain Collagen and Grass-Fed Whey Bonk Breaker's history of delivering fresher, tastier, and healthier nu- trition bars continues with Premium Protein Bars that use a cutting- edge blend of pasture-raised collagen protein and grass-fed whey for an all-natural, low-calorie, low-carbohydrate offering. Premium Protein Bars are under 200 calories with low net carbo- hydrates, made with all-natural, non-GMO ingredients, prebiotic fiber for digestive health and without artificial sugars or sugar alcohols. A blend of collagen and whey provides all nine amino acids for a vital source of complete protein. Collagen makes up 30 percent of the human body and has been shown to support joint health, stimulate a healthy metabolism, and promote healthy brain function. Collagen is not a complete protein on its own because it's missing the essential amino acid tryptophan, which is why Bonk Breaker's proprietary recipe blends grass-fed whey and collagen. Premium Protein Bars are currently available in three flavors, Double Fudge Brownie, Cookies & Cream, and Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Chip. Each offers 15 grams of protein. All Bonk Breaker bars are all natural, using real ingredients that are GMO free, paleo friendly, and gluten free.
