First Lady- Michelle Obama has openly expressed her concern and commitment to providing healthier food options for children across the nation over the last few years.  This month, she presented a no-sugar added children's beverage.  PLEZi is said to provide a healthier alternative to (i.e.) soda, containing 75% less sugar than the average 100% fruit juices and includes fiber, potassium, magnesium, zinc, and other electrolytes. 

PLEZi has four available flavors—sour apple, tropical punch, blueberry blast, and orange smash.  They are currently available online at family powerhouse retailers such as Walmart, Target, and Sprouts Farmers Market.  Each pack ranges around $4; aimed for kids 6 and up.  PLEZi, also, has an initiative set where 10% of the profits will go back into a 'broader movement' that promotes kids' health.
