The health and wellbeing of our children is paramount. Especially today, when nutritional deficiencies are a common concern.

As parents, it’s crucial to ensure our children get the nutrients they need to thrive.

The Nutritional Challenges of Malaysian Children

More than half of Malaysian children (over 50%, according to the National Health and Morbidity Survey [NHMS] 2022) aren’t getting the essential nutrients they need to thrive.

A recent study revealed deficiencies in calcium and vitamin D as being especially concerning. This lack of vital vitamins and minerals can lead to a range of problems, including irritability, fatigue, developmental delays, and even bone problems in the case of vitamin D deficiency.

But malnutrition isn’t just about not getting enough to eat; it can also be caused by an unbalanced diet.

While excessive carbohydrates and sugar might seem like easy options, they contribute to another worrying trend: childhood obesity. Research shows sugary drinks and processed foods are major culprits, leading to not only weight gain but also tooth decay.

And it’s important to note that excessive sugar intake and micronutrient deficiencies are serious issues for children in Asia. This issue is present not only in low-income countries but also in middle- and high-income ones.

So, what can we do?

Introducing Morinaga Chil-kid’s New and Improved Formula

The new and improved Morinaga Chil-kid formula is scientifically designed to address these concerns.

Here’s why the new and improved formula is a great choice for your child:

  • No Added Sucrose: Reducing sugar intake is essential for a healthy diet. Morinaga Chil-kid’s new formula eliminates sucrose, helping to control your child’s overall sugar consumption.

    • Benefits of No-Added Sucrose:
      • Reduces the risk of childhood obesity
      • Lowers the risk of tooth decay in children
      • Helps develop healthy taste preferences

  • Specially Formulated for Asian Children: The enhanced micronutrients provide more balanced and comprehensive nutritional support for your child’s growth and development. The new formula is fortified with higher amounts of Calcium and Vitamin D, addressing common deficiencies in Malaysian children. By drinking just 2 cups (400ml) daily, along with complementary foods in their diet, children can meet the Recommended Nutrient Intakes (RNI) for these essential nutrients.

  • Added Inositol: The new and improved Morinaga Chil-kid formula now includes Inositol, a nutrient vital for healthy brain development, according to research. Inositol works in three ways to benefit your child: it improves cognitive function, helping them learn and think more effectively. Additionally, it regulates brain chemicals called neurotransmitters, which influence mood, behaviour and memory. By supporting the creation of new neural connections, Inositol contributes to a constantly developing brain.

  • Packed with over 45 Essential Nutrients: The new Morinaga Chil-kid formula packs a powerful punch of essential nutrients! This includes ARA and DHA, which are important for brain development, along with Inositol for overall brain health. GOS supports healthy digestion, while 5 Nucleotides contribute to a strong immune system. And to top it all off, the formula boasts 27 key vitamins and minerals, all crucial building blocks for your child’s healthy growth and development.

  • 100+ Years Morinaga R&D Institute in Japan: Japanese-developed formula with essential nutrients for growing children, Morinaga Chil-kid meets international standards of growing up milk formula and is backed by science.
  • Rigorous of European Union (EU) Quality Control: Crafted with unwavering quality in mind, Morinaga Chil-kid milk formula is produced in a state-of-the-art Netherlands plant, ensuring the highest standards of nutrition and hygiene, from farm to family.
  • Stringent Quality Control with Double Inspections Process: Made in their Netherlands facility with rigorous quality checks, then further inspected by Morinaga Japan before reaching you.
