History


In 2010, the Federal Trade Commission reached a settlement with Nestlé over its claims that Boost Kid Essentials would prevent certain illnesses with the company agreeing to stop asserting the claims unless they were approved by regulators.[2] Nestle also agreed to stop claiming the drink will reduce children's sick-day absences and the duration of acute diarrhea in children up to age 13 unless the claims are backed by at least two "well-designed human clinical studies."[3] Nestlé said in a statement that the settlement provided clarity regarding new advertising standards applicable to health benefit claims for Boost Kid Essentials and similar products.[4] Nestlé did not admit wrongdoing as part of the settlement and the company was not fined.[4]

In 2011, the packaging design and bottle shape of Boost products was changed.[5] Due to increased demand in Boost, Nestlé added another line to its Indiana facility in 2013.[6] In 2015, the brand introduced the Boost Compact range and in 2016 they introduced the Boost Simply range.[7][8] The protein content of Boost was increased by 33% in 2018, from 15 grams per serving to 20 grams.[9]
