LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Just in time for Halloween, premier global nutrition company, Herbalife (NYSE:HLF), launched today its new Protein Bites Variety Pack, fun-size treats that satisfy the trickiest of candy cravings. According to the National Retail Federation, the average American will consume 3.4 pounds of candy during Halloween. With the Protein Bites Variety Pack, consumers can now make good snack choices during Halloween and forgo the guilt of overindulgence. This new seasonal offering was developed to keep up with today’s busy lifestyles and for those who crave choice and a convenient source of protein, furthering the Company’s purpose of making the world a healthier and happier place.

“A healthy snack should deliver a good amount of protein without too much carbohydrate,” said Dr. John Agwunobi, M.B.A., M.P.H., Chief Health and Nutrition Officer, Herbalife Nutrition. “Snacking, when done right keeps energy levels up between meals and helps control hunger, which makes Protein Bites a perfect go-to-snack to satisfy chocolate cravings.”

The Protein Bites Variety Pack contains 28 individually wrapped pieces in the following flavors: Crunchy Caramel Vanilla, Crunchy Caramel Lemon, Dark Chocolate Coconut, and Dark Chocolate Orange. The fun-size bites each contain four grams of high-quality protein and no artificial sweeteners, and range from 55-65 calories per piece. The four flavor Variety Pack is available for $27.15.

Additionally, on October 5, the Company for a limited time only will launch its Formula 1 Trial Size Variety Pack, which retails for $41.95 and includes three, 10-serving size canisters in Dutch Chocolate, Pumpkin Spice and Banana Caramel flavors.
