Danone Launches Oikos Fusion, a Yogurt-Based Drink for GLP-1 Users and Weight Loss Consumers
New 7oz beverage combines whey protein, leucine, and vitamin D to support muscle retention during weight loss
Powered by Oikos' patented Advanced FUSION Blend, Oikos Fusion is designed to help build and retain muscle mass during weight loss when combined with exercise and a balanced diet. It is the first and only product in the yogurt category specifically created and positioned to support the unique nutrition needs of GLP-1 users and other weight loss consumers, with a patented combination of whey protein, leucine and vitamin D. The three key nutrients have been extensively researched in populations at risk for muscle loss, including two clinical trials conducted by Danone. Together, this proprietary trifecta blend takes intentional muscle support to the next level by helping consumers maximally triggering muscle synthesis when paired with a balanced diet and exercise.
Oikos Fusion comes in three flavors including Strawberry, Mixed Berry, and Vanilla. Each nutrient-dense 7fl-oz, 130-calorie bottle is lactose-free and contains:
- Patented Advanced FUSION Blend of whey protein, leucine and vitamin D
- 23g of complete protein to support strong muscles*
- 5g of prebiotic fiber to support digestive health
- 0g added sugar**
- No artificial sweeteners, synthetic colors or dyes
- Vitamins B3 and B12 to help convert food to energy
- A good source of calcium and key vitamins A and D
Based on direct insights from those on GLP-1 medications, delivering this much nutrition in a compact size was top of mind for Oikos. The 7fl-oz bottle format for Oikos Fusion was chosen so that each consumer can enjoy a nutrient-dense drink.
Danone also created a dedicated nutrition hub for GLP-1 users to deliver clear, credible guidance on the nutritional needs of GLP-1 medication users, featuring expert advice and product recommendations from across its yogurt and waters portfolio.
Oikos Fusion drinks will launch in Walmart's refrigerated section starting this August, with additional retailers rolling out nationwide in October.
Oikos Fusion is the latest addition to Oikos' wide range of deliciously creamy, high-protein offerings, from yogurt cups and protein shots to the new Oikos Protein Shakes, launched in May 2025 as a shelf-stable way to get protein on the go. These newest launches within the Oikos portfolio underscore the brand's commitment to delivering innovative, tasty and protein-forward options for everyone at every stage of their health and fitness journey.
