What is Nutrition4Health?
It is common knowledge that nutrition is important for health. What is much less known is that nutrition during the first 1,000 days, from conception to 2 years old, are crucial for our long-term health. That’s also true after the first 1000 days, but the importance of those early days is unquestionable. What we eat makes a difference for the rest of our life and our baby’s life!

What can Nutrition4Health do for you?
Nutrition4Health can support health professionals and consumers in making the best choices. Nutrition4Health can help you to create nutritional solutions that align with your business values.
