Vitamin premix

Hello!

How did you decided which vitamins and minerals should be in Oatly milk and their amount? Why not more or less quantity of B12 for example?

Hi Marina,

 

great question!

 

Our aim is always to mimic the enrichment found in dairy so that one can easily convert from animal-based to plant-based consumption. We have from start worked closely with registered dietitians in order to make an oat drink that's perfectly adapted to humans!

 

However, there are also country specific regulations around fortification - if you'd like to dig a little deeper into this there's a nice piece right here

 

Love,

 

Åsa at Oatly

@Asa​ What is the source of your vitamins? Are they corn derived?

Hi Karen!

Man-made vitamins used to fortify foods are just like the ones you'll find on the supplement shelf and derived from various sources - in our case they're also 100% plant-based. Is there anyone in particular you're wondering about and we'd be glad to look it up for you?

 

Love,
