Gerber adds pediatric rehydration solution
ARLINGTON, VA. — Nestle is expanding its Gerber brand with Gerberlyte, an oral rehydration solution (ORS) intended for children.
Gerberlyte is formulated with coconut water, electrolytes and 25% of the daily recommended intake of zinc per 12-oz serving. The beverage is the first USDA-Certified pediatric ORS, according to the company.
The beverage is available in kiwi, berry blend and tropical punch flavors.
“We heard from parents that they need simple, trusted solutions they can feel confident giving their children, whether they’re managing a stomach bug or replacing fluids after a long day of outdoor play,” said Oscar Benítez, president of Gerber. “For nearly 100 years, we’ve helped parents nourish their little ones, and with Gerberlyte, we’re extending the trusted quality and expertise families know from Gerber to new moments when hydration support matters most.”
The rehydration beverage is available in a 32-oz multi-serve bottles and a 4-count pack of 4-oz bottles. The beverages are available at retailers nationwide.
