Specialised Nutrition

Nutricia offers nutritional solutions that impact health and well-being in the key moments of consumers lives. For over 120 years, we have been making use of the most recent of scientific discoveries to implement pioneering solutions in the field of specialised nutrition, supporting the growth of babies and little children, as well as the special needs of the ill.

We create nutrient rich products that, by supporting proper nutrition, help people take care, maintain a proper diet and to live longer, happier lives. Our innovative solutions are based on the most recent advances of science and broad knowledge pertaining about nutrients and their role in the human body.

Our specialised foods respond to the particular nutritional needs of:

• infants and little children, as the first 1000 days of their lives, i.e. the period starting at conception and lasting through the first years of life, is the period of the body’s most intense growth and development. This is when the child’s brain develops, the immune system takes shape, the digestive system matures, the metabolism forms, and nutritional habits appear. By taking care of proper nutrition, we help influence the child’s health both now and in the future. This is why, for over 40 years, we have been conducting extensive research on mother's milk, and employ the knowledge obtained in our research programmes in the creation of our products.

• people suffering from health issues, as we believe that medical foods should constitute an integral part of treatment. The specialised nutritional preparations used in medical nutrition are products created for patients who, due to disease and the problems associated with it, are unable to supply their bodies with adequate amounts of energy and nutrients by simply following their everyday diets. Medical food, introduced at the right moment used under medical supervision, allows for the increase the patient’s well-being, as well as aiding the process of treatment and restoring the patient’s health. When it comes to health nutrition, we offer products for oral and tube administration, as well as medical devices used for medical food supply.

Our mission is to serve people with the best nutritional care in the most sensitive moments of their lives.
