DENVER — Quest Nutrition launched a line of protein-forward milkshakes, featuring 45 grams of protein derived from ultrafiltered milk, 2 grams of sugar, and 4 grams or less of net carbs.

The shakes from the Simply Good Foods USA brand debuted in chocolate, vanilla and strawberry flavors.

"At Quest, we're constantly pushing the boundaries to create products that are big on protein, without compromising on flavor, as seen in our recent Bake Shop line," said Stuart Heflin, senior vice president and general manager at Quest Nutrition. "And now, we're thrilled to expand on this by entering a brand-new territory with our Protein Milkshakes, offering our fans even more delicious options that fuel them with 45 [grams] of protein, the highest protein in this category on the market."

The shakes launched at retailers nationwide, as well as online at Amazon and the Quest website.
