The Nutrition Improvement Program also focuses on concepts designed for people at the base of the population pyramid.
We provide the World Food Programme with ready-to-use vitamin and mineral mixes in sachets that are distributed to the people in need. The sachets can be sprinkled over a meal or a drink and provide people with their daily needs of essential vitamins and minerals they would not get with their poor daily diet. MixMe is especially suitable to combat malnutrition in infants as it does not have any taste and does not change color or consistency of the food.
Although international organizations such as WHO, UNICEF, and WFP have basically defined standards and goals with respect to nutritional supplements, specific nutritional needs can vary strongly between different population groups, for the simple reason that staple foods and diets are subject to economic and cultural factors that differ from society to society. MixMe can be adapted to the food habits as well as the health environment of the target groups in question.
