The US government has recommended limiting sugar intake.
Dannon, the US part of the multinational Paris-based food product corporation Danone, is exploring ways to lower the sugar levels in its yogurts.
The company is working with the US Heart Association as well as other health groups to find more ways to reduce sugar after cutting the sweeteners in most of its products to 23g or less per 6oz serving.
The government in the US recommended Americans limit their sugar intake for the first time this year and decreed that nutrition labels include added sugar.
The American Heart Association went even further, recommending that people should eat yogurt with no more than 20g of sugar per 6oz serving. That would be a cut of an additional 3g of sugar in Dannon products like Oikos and Actavia.
Cane sugar
In the US, yogurt sales have more than doubled since 2001, according to market research firm Euromoniter.
Dannon is also replacing sugar from sugar beet with cane sugar and moving away from ingredients which contain GMOs (genetically engineered). In future, the company will only use milk from cows fed with non-GMO animal feed.
