[LacuS Co., Ltd.] New Product Launch from Senior Nutritional Food "Me TIME FOODS"! Complete Nutrition x Soup "Me SOUP [Corn Potage]" to be Released on April 1st

LacuS Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Niigata City, Niigata Prefecture; Representative Director: Akihisa Kotsu; hereinafter "Lacus"), which operates the complete nutritional food brand for seniors "Me TIME FOODS", will begin selling "Me SOUP [Corn Potage]", a new complete nutritional soup product under the same brand, starting April 1, 2026.

Your daily nutrition, all in one cup.

"Me TIME FOODS" has, until now, delivered the 'joy of delicious eating' to those with reduced appetite or swallowing function through its complete nutritional ice cream "Me ICE". Having surpassed 60,000 units in cumulative sales and receiving positive feedback from nursing care facilities and home care settings nationwide, we frequently heard requests from staff for "something warm to give them." "Me SOUP" was born in response to this desire, as a powdered soup.

Product Features

① Complete nutritional design with 32 types of nutrients and high calories*

Based on the "Dietary Reference Intakes for Japanese (2025 Edition)" set by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 32 types of nutrients are blended in a balanced manner per serving. It efficiently delivers nutrition, including vitamins, minerals, protein, and dietary fiber, to seniors who tend to eat less, all in one cup. Furthermore, with 210kcal per serving, it enables the intake of often insufficient energy.

*Currently sold products contain 32 types of nutrients, which will be sequentially changed to 33 types.

② Smooth texture and gentle sweetness of corn

We focused on thickness and texture to ensure that even those with reduced chewing and swallowing abilities can enjoy it safely. It offers a natural deliciousness that utilizes the inherent sweetness of corn, without relying on artificial flavors or sweeteners.

③ The "daily joy" of a warm meal

Unlike "Me ICE", the first product of Me TIME FOODS, this offers a "warm" approach, enhancing meal satisfaction and peace of mind. It can be used in various situations, such as a dish for breakfast or lunch, or as a nutritional supplement instead of a snack.

④ User-friendly design for nursing care settings

Being a powdered type that can be stored at room temperature and simply dissolved in hot water or cold water, it requires no cooking effort, making it easy to provide in nursing care facilities and home care settings.

*It can also be dissolved in cold water to enjoy as a cold soup.

Product Overview

Future Development

With the launch of this product following "Me ICE", Lacus will evolve "Me TIME FOODS" into a brand that can deliver nutrition regardless of season or occasion, from 'cold' to 'warm' options. Moving forward, we aim to become a familiar and reliable "new food infrastructure" for everyone through the development of new products, expansion of our own e-commerce, and broadening sales channels to places like pharmacies where products can be easily picked up in daily life.

About LacuS Co., Ltd.

LacuS Co., Ltd. (Lacus) has set its 2030 vision as "Making Japan healthier, forever." As Japan's population ages, an increasing number of people are unable to fully enjoy the quality of their meals due to age-related decline in physical functions and eating/swallowing (dysphagia) functions.

With the desire to "deliver the joy of delicious eating until the very end of life, not just meals for nutrition," we have been developing the complete nutritional food brand "Me TIME FOODS". By achieving both nutritional design and deliciousness, we aim to create a "new food infrastructure" that provides peace of mind for both those who eat and those who provide the food.
