Early life nutrition
Ready for a lifetime
Grow new opportunities with just one unrivaled source for innovative biosolutions. So you and every child you reach will be ready for a lifetime.
Precious nutrients help them grow
The modern world is reshaping our little ones’ beginnings and becomings. Their environment, lifestyle, health and very microbiome are different than the generations that came before. But their first 1,000 days, from conception through toddlerhood, still set the foundation for their lifetime of health.
Nurture what makes a difference to their health
When you choose to bring your formula closer to nature’s own standard, opportunities arise. We support you with our rigorous clinical proof, quality standards and consumer insights.
Most mothers want to breast feed
Breast milk is the gold standard. Its content changes as an infant grows and provides the exact nourishment the baby needs. Successful breastfeeding fosters bonding between mother and child. It’s often deeply rewarding, not to mention a natural and cost-effective choice1.
Yet formula is often introduced quite early
But it’s not always possible for all mothers. More than half of mothers in the US and China introduce formula the first week. By the time solids are introduced, more than two thirds are using formula, and more than one quarter are incorporating dietary supplements1.
The gap between real and ideal may lead to uncertainty
A mother’s expectations to breastfeed can be unmet for a variety of reasons like low milk supply, health issues or job pressure. Introducing formula can be emotionally complex as the mother may simultaneously feel guilty, relieved and concerned about her baby’s nutritional needs1.
Quality, safety and nutrition are key to acceptance
Most mothers turn to their health care professionals for advice and assurance of her feeding choices. When she chooses to feed with formula, she is looking for reassurance that she’s still doing the right thing for her baby1.

Benefit from our expertise in early life
An infant’s microbiome is exceptional. In these early days of development, nature encourages Bifidobacteria growth. As much as 90% of the microbiota are Bifidobacteria strains2. Our biosolutions support this natural developmental curve. So while baby grows, you will, too.
Health benefits throughout childhood
Infant nutrition (0-12 months)
A newborn baby uses nourishment to grow, develop and stay healthy. Probiotic bacteria and HMOs work together (and separately!) to support this.
The famous first 1,000 days are the most crucial to develop a healthy brain, gut, immune system and metabolism.3.
Toddler nutrition (1-3 years)
Development, of course, doesn’t stop when toddlers turn two. Their microbiomes continue to evolve with their diet and development.
And as they become more active, their immune systems adapt to their lifestyle and surroundings.
Children's health (3-12 years)
A child’s immune system continues to learn and become more robust. In fact, every exposure to a new microbe becomes a potential opportunity.
During these years, it’s not only bones and muscles that grow; kids continue growing in less physically obvious ways, too, like cognitive and immune development.
We’ve got your back with a century of science
If only the highest industry standards are good enough, you’re in the right place. You get biosolutions backed by robust human clinical documentation and pre-clinical studies that validate the claims, quality and safety in your target group.
