Infant and toddler nutrition
Good nutrition is vital for babies and children. Breastfeeding is the natural way for babies to remain healthy and develop properly. For situations where breastfeeding is not or no longer possible, we offer a range of baby and infant foods, particularly in Asia and Africa. Including for older children.
In the first year after birth children develop very rapidly, not only in height and weight, but also in brain development.
After that first year their development continues at the same high pace – bringing about immense physical, mental and social changes.
In order to develop properly during these years, children need good nutrition that provides exactly what their bodies need. The natural way for babies to get all the vital nutrients is breastfeeding. But sometimes breastfeeding is not or no longer possible. For these situations we offer a variety of baby and infant foods under the brands Dutch Lady (Malaysia, Vietnam), Foremost (Thailand), Frisian Flag (Indonesia), Friso (in various countries) and Peak (Nigeria). These also include 123 and 456, infant foods aimed specially at promoting children’s brain activity .
