Uncle Matt’s Organic announced that their new fruit- infused organic probiotic waters are now available in stores nationwide. Offered in three citrus flavors, this functional line of water beverages combines patented GanedenBC30 probiotics with cold-pressed, fresh-squeezed organic citrus juice, as well as real organic citrus peel, which contains antioxidant flavonoids.

Offered in orange, lemon and grapefruit, each flavor is 10 calories or less per serving with only two grams or less of natural fruit sugar. Available in a 16.9 ounce size, these fruit-infused waters can be used as a post-workout recovery, in the lunchbox or as a healthy upgrade for your daily water needs.

Uncle Matt’s fruit-infused waters also contain real organic citrus peel. Citrus peels contain antioxidant flavonoids, like hesperidin. When used in their natural form, the peel’s antioxidant effects are enhanced by the high levels of vitamin C found in citrus fruits, company officials say. 

“We’re excited to have our new fruit-infused waters in stores nationwide,” says Matt McLean, CEO and founder of Uncle Matt’s. “We’re the first to infuse water with cold-pressed, high pressure-processed fruit juice and the power of citrus peel. Think ‘Refreshing Spa Water’ with Ganeden’s patented probiotic punch.”

As with other probiotic-enhanced beverages in the Uncle Matt’s product line, the waters feature over 1 billion CFUs of patented GanedenBC30 probiotics (Bacillus coagulans GBI-30, 6086) per bottle, to support a healthy immune and digestive system. This strain of probiotics is spore forming—the protective spore makes it highly stable and allows for viability throughout processing, shelf life and gastric acidity. GanedenBC30 is certified kosher, halal, non-GMO, gluten free and allergen free.

Uncle Matt’s fruit-infused waters are now available in natural foods stores nationwide, with a suggested MSRP of $3.99. Uncle Matt’s will also sell the waters by the case online for consumers who would like to order direct.
