爱豆传媒. (Headquarters: Tokyo, President & CEO: Haruo Naito, “Eisai”) announced today that it will launch Chocola BB® Fresh II (designated quasi-drug, 50mL), a nutritional vitamin B complex drink, in Japan on Monday, July 9.
Chocola BB Fresh II is a Chocola BB Drink Series product that contains the right balance of B-complex vitamins, amino acids and other ingredients necessary for people suffering from physical fatigue. The drink is a new and improved version of Chocola BB Fresh with enhanced fatigue-fighting effects. Although Chocola BB Fresh II includes the same amounts of B-complex vitamins, which are important in relieving tiredness, as the original product, it also contains higher amounts of taurine and glycine as well as two additional new ingredients-L-arginine hydrochloride and L-lysine hydrochloride. Furthermore, the number of calories, which females pay close attention to, has been reduced to just 8.8 kcal per bottle, and the packaging, which now features a newly designed pink label and bottle cap, was revamped in order to appeal more to the female population.
Eisai hopes that consumers will turn to Chocola BB Fresh II whenever they feel tired during the course of their busy professional and private lives. Other vitamin drinks designated as quasi-drugs and marketed by the company include Chocola BB Royal 2 and Chocola BB Light 2.
Eisai will continue to pursue the development of new Chocola BB Drink Series products that address the diversified needs of consumers as it seeks to create a market for female-oriented drink products.
