Abbott has launched a new PediaSure with Nutri-Pull system to support children’s growth and development. India, which accounts for nearly one-third of the global childhood stunting burden, has 40.6 million stunted children.
The unique formulation of PediaSure includes 37 nutrients and added casein phosphopeptides (CPPs), which are digested and absorbed faster than whole protein. Peptides in PediaSure also attract key minerals important for growth. The Nutri-Pull system is a unique combination of ingredients like vitamin K2, vitamin D, vitamin C, and casein phosphopeptides, which help support catch-up growth among children by absorbing key nutrients.
Addressing undernutrition early can help mitigate growth issues and ensure children reach their full developmental capacity. If a child’s nutritional intake is falling short, a doctor or registered dietitian can provide tips to improve their diet and a nutritional supplement drink like PediaSure can also help. Neil George, General Manager of Abbott’s Nutrition Business in India said, ”With the introduction of the new PediaSure, we are delivering the right nutrients and novel ingredients—like CPP—to help children achieve their developmental goals.”
